Creating a table in Lilypond?
Hi everyone, It's been years since I've last used the mailing list...too long! I'm in the process of organizing my folk song collection for teaching, and I want to use Lilypond to do it digitally. I need to create a table at the bottom of my pages...like, an actual text table. I don't want to cut and paste my Lilypond score into a document... Is there a way to create a text table look-alike using \markup?

[Slightly Off-topic] Advice for freelancing?
Hello friends, I've been really trying for the last two years to become a freelance music engraver. I've really come to love engraving music, and I would like to make my hobby into a job. I don't ever think that I'll be able to survive by only engraving music, but it sure would be nice. I really am not sure where to start, however, with gaining clients. Up until this point, I've been engraving music for my peers at my University. However, I am finding that very rarely do I have work. Does anyone have any advice? Anything would be appreciated :) - Ryan McClure Music Education Major, Shepherd University Luna Music Engraving www.lunamusicengraving.com -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Slightly-Off-topic-Advice-for-freelancing-tp173523.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Why is scaleDurations not working?
Hello,
I'm trying to get two different rhythms to line up using \scaleDurations and
I've noticed something interesting. When I input each note individually, it
breaks, but when I use \repeat unfold X, it works... What am I doing wrong?

Piano crossings and ottava indications don't get along?
Hello all, These past few days I've been doing a take and take...I'm mailing around about a lot of problems that I have with some music and I'm not really responding to any other email...not the best way to behave when returning to a mailing list, I know, so I hope that you all forgive me. I am trying to engrave the sample that I've attached. Here is a snippet of what I've got going in Lilypond... As you can see, the crossings and ottava aren't getting along nicely. My client really wants his music to be engraved exactly as he wrote it. What can I do to make this work? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I promise after this project to 1) return to the mailing list and 2) actually return the favor and help answer problems that I can answer.

LilyPond PPA for Ubuntu/other related OS?
I'm about to switch to Elementary OS soon as my default OS...I'm not enjoying my Arch Linux experience as of late. On Arch, I have access to the AUR for Arch that allows me to have access to the most recent build of LilyPond. I would like this for Elementary OS. However, I would prefer a package that I can update through the package manager rather than installing it from the command line into a directory...package managers are much cleaner in my opinion. So, I'm wondering if there is a PPA that allows me to have the most up-to-date version of LilyPond? I am about to install Elementary based on 14.04, but in the default repos the most recent version is 2.16 according to my research. If anything, I'd like 2.18 at least. Does anyone know if such a PPA exists? If not, I wouldn't mind creating a PPA for this, but I don't know at all how to create one.

[Off topic] How to start collaborative project
Hi everyone, This is most certainly an off topic email, but I figured you guys would be the best place to start when our came to asking for advice. I'm trying to start an open classical music database that can be used for tagging audio files. This database would focus on tagging works of music rather than the tangible album; however, the album and performers would have their own tag. I can't do this by myself, and I need to find a way to get this project off the ground. Any advice? Thanks all!

Re: Printing Title Pages; has it been a thought?
I think that this would be an interesting feature, but the issue with this is
giving a default title page. It would require a user to adjust the title
page to fit the needs of the user. I have created a personal "title page
template," if you will. I'll attach it in the email to see what you think.
Note that my title page has my logo on it, so you'll have to change the .ly
file accordingly.

Any professional can make anything look good. An expert Micro$oft Paint user could probably reproduce the Mona Lisa if given enough time. What LilyPond does better than Finale/Sibelius is more excellent default engraving. How many times have people used Finale and gotten that dreaded last-bar-on-its-own-page problem? I believe the best test would be using ONLY defaults for Finale, Sibelius, and LilyPond to show what the programs can do--not what experienced users can do. - Ryan McClure Music Education Major, Shepherd University Luna Music Engraving www.lunamusicengraving.com -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/engraving-comparisons-and-other-promotional-materials-tp155133p155232.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Placing _\markup below lyrics
I think, because this sets the priority (closeness-to-staff) within the context and Lyrics is another context below and not part of the staff. So Lyrics is always placed lower as the lowest object in the Staff above. That makes sense. So, as of now then, there is no clean way to put anything below the lyrics that comes from the staff itself?

Re: Placing _\markup below lyrics
Hi there Jim,
This is messy--really messy. But, here's what I came up with:
\version "2.17.95"
%\paper { ragged-right= ##f }
melody = \relative c' {
c4 c c c | c4 c c c
c4 c c c | \override Score.TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(0 . -3)
c4_\markup "melody staff markup" c c c
}
words = \lyricmode {
\override LyricText #'extra-offset = #'(0 . 2)
la la la la
la la la la
la la la la
la la la la
}
\score {
<<
\melody
\addlyrics \words
>>
}
Trying to use \override Score.TextScript #'outside-staff-priority had no
affect, and I'm not sure why. So, I added an offset to the markup. This
pushed down the lyrics, so the override in the lyrics pushes it back up. I'm
unsure as to why outside-staff-priority didn't work, though.

I can see how this would work. I tried it, and it worked--but it was too

This works excellently! No parts are being sounded as the wrong instrument,

Re: Midi for instrument turns into percussion
I found this on the documentation, 3.5: The MIDI output allocates a channel for each staff, and reserves channel 10 for drums. There are only 16 MIDI channels per device, so if the score contains more than 15 staves, MIDI channels will be reused. So, I'm guessing that the channel of percussion is being used for Tenor Sax. I have 13 different instrument voices and 2 percussion voices in my score. That is, some use the same instrument, like all 7 different clarinet voices that I have. What should I do to prevent this problem? I've never had a score with this many different voices before. - Ryan McClure Luna Music Engraving www.lunamusicengraving.com -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Midi-for-instrument-turns-into-percussion-tp154589p154595.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

I'll get back to you as soon as I figure out the top part.
By the way, what version of LilyPond are you running?

Hi,
In order to give the context of a short waltz I wrote for a performance of a
play by Chekhov, I am trying to insert three cues of the play before the score.
Here is my code:
\markup { \abs-fontsize #12
\column {
\vspace #1
\wordwrap {LIOUBOV On dirait qu'il y a de la musique quelque
part.\italic {(Elle écoute.)}
}
\wordwrap {GAÏEV C'est notre fameux orchestre juif. Tu te rappelles,
quatre violons, une flûte et une contrebasse.
}
\wordwrap {LIOUBOV Tiens, il existe toujours! Il faudrait l'inviter, à
l'occasion organiser une petite soirée.
}
\left-align {\line { \italic {Anton Tchekhov}}}
}
}
two problems:
- line spacing between two lines of a wrapped line (Gaiev's cue) is bigger
than between independent lines. I cannot find how to modify that.
- I'd like to right align the author's name but writting "right" instead of
"left" just push it further to the left and it gets clipped.
Thank for any help

Re: The ultimate slur shaping function.
I like what I see!!! :) If there's one thing that I spend the most time on, it's modifying slurs, especially on Schenker graphs. However, there's one question I have. You mentioned that using \shape would apply to all following slurs. Is it possible to use \once \shape? I haven't had a chance to mess with it yet, I've only read the attachments. Excellent work! LilyPond is getting better and better every day!!! -Ryan McClure On 11/24/2013 07:42 PM, Janek Warcho? wrote: Hi all, I'm proud to announce the beginning of a new era in tweaking LilyPond slurs! Thanks to sponsoring from Kieren, Alexander and Ben, I was able to improve Lily's \shape function (originally written by David Nalesnik, who also helped me with these improvements) - it's now possible to shape slurs in many ways, some of which are considerably more robust and generic than simple offsets used until now. In addition to improved \shape, I've also written a function that allows to simply specify slur attachment points (as per Kieren's request - this feature returns to LilyPond after being removed about 8 years ago). See the attachments; the pdfs containing demonstrations of new capabilities and user documentation are here: http://lilypond-stuff.1065243.n5.nabble.com/file/n5705621/shapeII-examples.pdf http://lilypond-stuff.1065243.n5.nabble.com/file/n5705621/slur-attachments-examples.pdf Please test the functions and send me your opinions and feedback. Maybe I could improve them even more :-) best, Janek PS Here's the original email in which I had announced this project: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2013-10/msg00637.html I apologize that it took so much time - I was waiting for some reviews, and also had to finish some other tasks. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: MultiMeasureRestNumber centered between staves
I think that this may do the trick:
\version "2.17.29"
\score {
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff {
\compressFullBarRests
\override MultiMeasureRest #'expand-limit = #1
\once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber #'transparent = ##t
R1*9
}
\new Staff {
\compressFullBarRests
\override MultiMeasureRest #'expand-limit = #1
\once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber #'Y-offset = 3.5
R1*9
}
>>
}
Essentially, this trick removes the "9" from the top staff by hiding it.
The bottom staff's "9" is moved up to the center of these two staves.
When you use this, if it is not centered perfectly, change the Y-offset
from 3.5 to whatever you need.
Let us know if this helps! :)

I am typesetting an orchestral piece that includes a harp part with many full

two staves, as in the attachment. How can I accomplish this?
