parenthesized phrase

[Ruth Roland]

Hi,
I have used \parenthesize for one note at a time; is there a way to have the
parentheses or brackets enclose a series of notes?

Thanks,
Ruth

signed trills/trillspan to barline

[Ruth Roland]

Hi,
There have been various posts regarding putting an accidental above a trill. 
Does anyone have an idea why this example doesn't work?  I'm not even getting an
error message.  I can't find newer code online.  Also, is there a way to extend
the trillspan all the way to the barline?  I found a post with this question,
but no answer.
Thanks, 
Ruth

\version "2.11.28"

 
 global= {
   \key d \minor
\time 6/8
}
  
violinOne = \new Voice 
 { \relative {
   
 a''2.~\startTrillSpan  a2.~ a2.~ a2.\stopTrillSpan
\override TrillSpanner #'edge-text = 
#(cons (markup #:line (#:halign -0.5 #:musicglyph "scripts.trill" 
#:teeny
#:raise 0.5 #:flat)) "")
g2.\startTrillSpan g4.\stopTrillSpan a d a4.\trill a4~( a16 b32 cis) d4.
}}
 \score {
\new Staff << \global \violinOne >>
 }

lowering chord symbols

[Ruth Roland]

Sometimes, apparently due to the height of notes and markups 
above the staff, my chord symbols print too far above the staff 
to read easily.  Is there a way to either raise an individual staff, 
lower chord symbols on one line only, standardize the distance 
between chord symbols and staff regardless of such high notes 
and markups, or otherwise solve this problem?

Thanks,
Ruth

rehearsal marks continued

[Ruth Roland]

Here's the relevant sample.  Thanks.
Ruth

\version "2.11.28"
   global= {
   \time 4/4
   \key e \minor

 }

 violinOne = \new Voice \with {\consists "Mark_engraver"}
{ \relative c''{
   \set Staff.instrumentName = "Violin I "
\set Score.markFormatter = #format-mark-circle-barnumbers


r2^arco b'\mf \upbow
\mark \default
c b fis d'
\bar "|." }}


 \score {
   \new Staff << \global \violinOne >>

\layout { }
\midi { \context {
  \Score
  tempoWholesPerMinute = #(ly:make-moment 120 4)}}
 }


It's not strange that you get doubled rehearsal marks
if you add the engraver to the Voice context and keep 
it in the Score context.  What do you try to achieve 
when you add the Mark_engraver to the Voice context 
(in my opinion, it does make sense in a few special 
situations to move it from the Score context to the 
Staff context, but not to the Voice context)?

This is pure incompetence in my part.  I am learning 
lilypond by trial and error.  The 
\with {\consists "Mark_engraver"} was left over from 
the score version, so segnos etc. would appear on all 
systems.  

Ruth

Just remove the: \with {\consists "Mark_engraver"}
to get rid of the extra rehearsal mark.
  /Mats

Thank you!  That worked,
Ruth

extra set of rehearsal marks

[Ruth Roland]

I recently switched to Lilypond 2.11.28-1 
and now everything I typeset ends up with 
an extra set of rehearsal marks.  For instance, 
if I ask for circled barnumbers, then whenever 
I put "\mark \default" I end up with two circled 
barnumbers, one above the other.  

What might be the problem?

Thanks,
Ruth
