Page Turns During Cues
Hey all, I have a piece that, due to its rhythmic complexity, needs a lot of cues in the parts. Unfortunately, as a result, several of the parts have three pages of consecutive music where LilyPond can't put a page turn. Is there a setting somewhere I can use to tell the page turn engraver that it's OK to put a page turn in the middle of a cue? I would really like to not have to enter page turns manually.

Re: A question about scores and parts from a blind user
Daniel,
Yes, when you use the \include function, LilyPond will treat the included
file as though it is entirely included in the including file. So if you
have an active \score { . . . } block inside the included file, LilyPond
will generate that block as well as the \score { . . . } block in the
trumpet part. To get around this, I usually put all of the notes in a file
with no \score { . . . } block and then have separate files for the score
and all the parts. That way I can use \include without generating a score
that I don't want. Does that make sense?
HTH,
Nick

I am attempting to finish and arrangement to a song for three brass parts.
I'm not sure I fully grasp the understanding of the \include and its

that file to create my parts. I have created a trumpet part file, and when
I compile it using the variable from the score file, it returns to me a 7
or 8 page long pdf. this doesn't seem right to me, as the score itself is
only five or six pages long. The part for the trumpet should be in my
estimation around two or three pages long. I have compressed the multi
measure rest. Can anyone tell me why my compilation is so large? Is it
including the entire score all over again? Thanks for any help. Sorry I was
unable to provide a tiny example, I had to step away from my computer a

Apologies for being unclear! I've attached a minimal example that I hope
will demonstrate what I mean. Notice how the 8va text collides with the
beam; I would like to move the 8va text to the left to avoid this
collision, and cannot figure out how to do so. Changing the text by adding
a hspace adds space to the right of the text, but doesn't actually move the
text itself.
Thoughts?

Re: font survey: which clef do you prefer?
Janek, I personally prefer the first one, then the third one, then the second one.

Re: Problem with \set currentBarNumber
Neil, When I try to move the Timing_translator by both adding it to the Staff context and removing it from the Score context, the file starts to compile, but then stops without doing anything after printing the following message: ERROR: In procedure number-string: ERROR: Wrong type argument in position 1: () There is no line number associated with the error, and LilyPondTool in JEdit isn't highlighting anything in red. When I don't remove the Timing_translator from the Score context, but only add it to the Staff context, I get scads of bar check failure warnings, and the resulting PDF has irregular and infrequent bar lines that do not line up with the meter until the first \bar ||, at which point each note is printed in a separate measure surrounded by a double bar.

Problem with \set currentBarNumber
Dear list, In one piece I am working on, I have had to add the Bar_number_engraver to the Staff context, and have at one point used \set Staff.currentBarNumber to change the current bar number. Unfortunately, this effect seems to be permanent, i.e. the bar number stops advancing by 1 every bar after the \set command. Without the \set command, the bar number increases normally. Is this a bug, or is there something else I need to add to the Staff context to get the desired output?

Two simultaneous BarNumbers
Hey all, I am working on a large-scale minimalist piece that uses repeats in the instrumental parts to make page turns possible. Since these repeats are only a space-saving device (they are different in each part and do not exist in the score), I would like to print two bar numbers at the beginning of each line: One above the staff that is the bar number the first time through, and one below the staff that is the bar number the second time through. Is this possible? I can input the actual bar numbers by hand if automatic calculation is difficult. As a temporary solution, I have tried using an \override with the BarNumber 'stencil and 'text properties to print something like 44/53 where the bar number would ordinarily go, but none of my attempts have produced the desired result. I am running LilyPond 2.14.0. TIA Nick Baskin ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

I think the simplest option would be to add the Bar_number_engraver
directly to the stave. Here's a short example:
\version 2.14.0
\new Staff \with {
\consists Bar_number_engraver
\override BarNumber #'direction = #DOWN
}
\relative c' {
\repeat volta 1 {
c4 d e f \break
}
\set Staff.currentBarNumber = #3
c4 d e f
}
As a temporary solution, I have tried using an
\override with the BarNumber 'stencil and 'text properties to print
something like 44/53 where the bar number would ordinarily go, but none
of
my attempts have produced the desired result.
Overriding 'text doesn't work since the engraver sets this property
later than \override.
Here's a stencil override:
\once \override Score.BarNumber #'stencil =
#(lambda (grob) (grob-interpret-markup grob 44/53))
Cheers,
Neil

Rehearsal Marks extend staff lines
Hey all, I'm working on a piece that requires players to switch from pitched percussion notated on a five-line staff to non-pitched percussion notated on a one-line staff. I've managed to change the line count using the \stopStaff \override Staff.StaffSymbol #'line-count syntax, but if this change happens at a rehearsal mark, then the staff lines continue a short way after the bar-line into the next measure. From the minimal example, it seems that the length of this intrusion is related to the width of the rehearsal mark. Is there anything that can be done about this?

Re: Suppress Bar lines

When I write unmetered music like that, I add \cadenzaOn at the beginning

allowed. (Any other sort of explicit \bar command will do.)

Re: hiding barnumber only when rehearsalmark appears
I've encountered a similar problem in my scores. My solution has been to
create a command beforeMark = { \once \override Score.BarNumber
#'break-visibility = ##(#f #f #f) } at the beginning of the file, and then
call it when I have a mark (i.e. \beforeMark \mark \default). It seems to
work well for me.

Hi Akira,
\once \override Score.BarNumber #'transparent = ##t

but 2 problems ocurred.
One is that, because of setting #'transparent, the rehearsalmark is in
too higher position so that it can avoid barnumber.(barnumber is not
hid but just transparent.)
That's because you made it transparent. ;)
Have you tried
\once \override Score.BarNumber #'stencil = ##f
??
The other is that, when grace note is used, overrides setting on
barnumber itself doesn't work, so barnumber won't hide.
Maybe it would if you put a skip grace before the override, so that the
timing is synched?
Hope this helps!
