Ossia too long at key change
Dear List,
If right after an ossia there is a key change in the other parts, the
staff of the ossia extends with the length of the key signature. See
below for an example. I can't figure out how to make the ossia stop
right at the bar line.
I tried to do \set Staff.explicitKeySignatureVisibility = #all-invisible
in the ossia staff, but that didn't work.
Thanks.
Peter
\version 2.18
\new Staff = ossia \with {
\remove Time_signature_engraver
\hide Clef
fontSize = #-3
\override StaffSymbol.staff-space = #(magstep -3)
\override StaffSymbol.thickness = #(magstep -3)
}
{ \stopStaff s1*6 }
\new Staff \relative c' {
c4 b c2
{ e4 f e2 }
\context Staff = ossia {
\startStaff e4 g8 f e2 \stopStaff
}
\key a \major g4 a g2 \break

Beam start and end position
Dear list,
In this example:
-
\version 2.16.2
\score {
\new Staff \with { \override StaffSymbol #'thickness = #2.0 } {
\relative c'' { g16 a bes c } }
}
-
The beam does not overlap the stems of the notes entirely, which does
not look very nice (see attached png). It should start at the left of
the first stem and end at the right of the last stem rather than in the
center of both.
Could someone advise me on how to extend the beam a little to the right
and to the left?
(I need thick lines for engraving the music in a stone).
Thanks in advance!

Thank you for your suggestion.
Invoking 'lilypond -dresolution=1200 --png' results in the right
dimensions, indeed. Thanks. I will use this. The image is not cropped
automatically, so I now have to tune the page-height as well. And I have
to set a small margin for the curly bracket of the PianoStaff. Otherwise
it would be off the page.
The usage manual however (section 4.4) tells me to do this:
lilypond -dbackend=eps -dno-gs-load-fonts -dinclude-eps-fonts --png
-dresolution=1200 figure.ly
That results in a png that is too wide. There seems another mechanism at
work to determine size of resulting image. Cropping?

exact dimenions of pdf/png
Dear all,
I have to provide a bitmapped image to a publisher:
1200dpi, width: 11cm. It only contains one system.
This implies a width of (11.0/2.54)*1200.0 = 5196 pixels.
I followed the directions from the 'usage' manual, and I put this on top
of my source file.
\paper{
indent=0\mm
line-width=110\mm
oddFooterMarkup=##f
oddHeaderMarkup=##f
bookTitleMarkup = ##f
scoreTitleMarkup = ##f
ragged-right = ##f
ragged-last = ##f
}
However. The resulting pdf has a width of 11.19 cm, and the png a width
of 5283 pixels, which is too large.
I tried to add:
left-margin=0\mm
right-margin=0\mm
paper-width=110\mm
check-consistency=##t
Then I get a width of 11.15 cm.
How can I set the with of resulting pdf at exactly 11.0 cm?

There's a conflict between your understanding and the rules. A beam with 4
1/32 notes and 1 1/16 note is a 1/32 beam, so it's doing exactly what it is
supposed to do. It's beaming it in 6/32, which is what you've asked it to
do.
Ok. I understand. Thank you for the explanation.
As far as I know, it doesn't make much musical sense to do what you're
asking for, so having it not work in autobeaming doesn't seem to be too much
of a problem.
My aim was to group 8th notes in a 6/8 meter as (2 1 2 1), which
corresponds to the desired articulation, but in the same score I want
the 16th grouped as (6 6) instead of (4 2 4 2). As I understand it now,
this is impossible without manual beaming.
For the score I'm working on it's not crucial. It just would have been
nice.
Best,
Peter
If you want this to work, you'll need to do manual beaming.

center text vertically between staves - indicating keyboard changes in organ music
Hello, How can I center text vercially between the staves of a PianoStaff? The two way's I can find in the learning manual (using lyrics and defining a Dynamics context, section A.2) seem a bit overdone for just a few marks. Is there another - more local - way? Shifting the text manually by changing the Y-offset is not really an option because the space between the staves is not fixed. The reason: I'm typesetting music for organ. For the keyboard part I use a PianoStaff. I want to indicate keyboard changes. E.g. Both hands on Grand Clavier Left hand on Grand Clavier, right hand on Positif Right hand on Positif, left hand on Grand Clavier Both hands on Positif Both hands on Echo etc. In the cases where both hands go to the same keyboard, I would like to put the indication vertically centered between the staves of the PianoStaff.

As far as I know, no. The only way I know of to get centered between two staves is to have a loose-line context between the staves, with an alignment of CENTER. In general, the text markup is associated with notes, and notes belong to staves. So the markup goes with a particular staff. I'm sorry that this is not as satisfying as you would wish it, but I believe it is accurate. Ok. I understand. Good to know.

unmetered music - page breaks and empty bar lines
Dear list,
I'm typesetting unmetered music. My question is: what is the right (or
best) approach to do so?
If I set Score.timing to false, I have to insert \bar everywhere in
order to let lilypond figure out a nice layout. That's tedious.
My current approach is this:
\layout {
\context {
\Score
\remove Bar_number_engraver
\override BarLine #'transparent = ##t
\override TimeSignature #'transparent = ##t
}
\context {
\PianoStaff
\override SpanBar #'stencil =
#(lambda (grob)
(if (string=? (ly:grob-property grob 'glyph-name) |)
(set! (ly:grob-property grob 'glyph-name) ))
(ly:span-bar::print grob))
}
}
At the beginning of the music I do: \set Timing.defaultBarType =
So, I set the music with meter - providing lilypond many good points to
insert line breaks - and I make all barlines empty and hide the meter.
The problem is that the (empty) bar lines still occupy space, causing
the notes to be spaced unevenly (see attached example - the bottom part
is where the bar lines are when they are not empty. The space before the
final note is really bad).
I tried to set the next-note distance to 0 in the space-alist of
barline, but that didn't remove all horizontal space.
Is there a better way to do this?
Thanks in advance.

Try
\context { \Staff \remove Bar_engraver }
That appears to do what you need.
Thanks for the suggestion. This has the desired effect on the note
spacing, but it raises other problems:
1. I cannot have the final bar line
2. Clefs and key signatures are not printed at the start of systems
3. line breaks occur everywhere, also in the middle of beams, etc.
Unfortunately, the balance is negative.

minor change since you said you needed a final barline:
\version 2.12.3
\layout {
\context { \Score \remove Timing_translator \remove Bar_number_engraver }
\context { \Staff \override TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f

music = {

\repeat unfold 32 { \repeat unfold 2 { a8[ a a a] } }
\revert Staff.BarLine #'stencil
\bar |.
}
\score { \music \layout {} }
Thanks a lot! That looks very good indeed.
The only drawback is that automatic beaming is off. Automatic beaming is
an advantage of having an underlying meter.
So, the trade-off is inserting \bar at many places or manually
indicating all beams...

It would be much simpler if you were using bar checks as then there would be something in the pattern to anchor the search on, but your example d2 s2 \bar :|: could be accounted for with something like Search string: ([a-g](?:is|es)?2) s2 \\bar :\|: Replacement string: \\partial 2\r\1 \\bar :|: [...] Where it would break down is if these partial measures are variable in length or if you have variable numbers of notes before the spacer, in which case it might not work. [...] Which is the case. I'm dealing with quite messy 18th century manuscripts. Thanks for thinking along with me, but it seems not possible to escape from some computing with note and rest durations in order to insert the \partial command at the right place and with the right duration. best, Peter ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
invisible rest that takes no horizontal space
Hi all, \skip and s consume score time, but both print some horizontal space. How can I insert an invisible rest that does not take horizontal space? I searched the manuals and snippet repository, but no clue... Thanks! Peter van Kranenburg ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Use r4*0 You may have to put \once \override Rest #'X-extent = #'(0 . 0) or \once \override Rest #'extra-spacing-width = #'(+inf.0 . -inf.0) to eliminate any space. Thank you. That triggered the right solution. r4*0 does not work. The rest collides with the following note. But, s4*0 works for me. And that is exactly what I need. I have around 1000 melodies in which partial measures were solved by inserting invisible rests (s) instead of using \partial. With this solution it is relatively easy to write a script to add *0 to all those invisible rests in order to get visually satisfying scores. Thanks again!

rotation with unwanted shift to the right
Dear all,
When I rotate text that is right under a note, it is also shifted to the
right. In the example below, I want the numbers exactly between the note
on the top stave and on the bottom stave. When there is only a 0, it
is ok. When there are three digits, there is a small shift. When there
are more digits (e.g. the 0.630947), the shift is so big that the
number is below the next note.
I would be grateful if somebody could tell me how to rotate long strings
without shifting them to the right.
Thanks in advance!

decrease distance between beams in tremolo?
hello list, Is it possible to decrease the distance between the beams of a tremolo? I'm asking because I'm typsetting 17th century organ music which has an ornament of two slashed through the stem all the time. If I decrease the thickness of a tremolo, it looks almost right, except for the distance between the slashes. They should be a bit closer together. regards, Peter van Kranenburg ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Is there a way to position the dashes relatively to the (invisible) stem, so that a more generic macro can be defined? Of course I will keep working on this myself by reading the manual and experimenting, but if someone can give me a clue, it would probably speed up. regards, Peter ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

17th century keyboard ornament
Hi all,
I'm trying to typeset some 17th century keyboard music from the Southern
Netherlands. An often used ornament is a slanted double dash through the
stem of the note (zie attached image - sorry for the bad quality).
I tried to adapt the tremolo:
-
\version 2.8.5
doubledash = {\once \override Voice.StemTremolo #'beam-thickness = #0.2 }
\layout { ragged-right = ##t }
\score {
\relative c'
\new Staff { \time 3/4 \doubledash g'':16 g g }
\new Staff { \clef bass { r4 \doubledash bes,,2:16 } \\ { g2~ g4 } }
}
-
This doesn't satisfy me. The vertical space between the dashes is too
large. Especially when the stem is short (as is with the bes in the
above example). I can't find a parameter to control this distance.
Can someone give me a suggestion how to typeset this ornament?
thanks in advance,
Peter van Kranenburg
