Re: Raising all metronome marks
Hello, Here is what I mostly use : \override Score.MetronomeMark.padding = #6 just before the tempo mark (works with lilypond 2.24.2) I have another example with a markup but it's much more complex (I can send it if you want) BR, --- Sébastien From: lilypond-user-bounces+richardsgjm=hotmail@gnu.org on behalf of Ben Bradshaw Sent: Wednesday, April 3, 2024 05:52 To: Lily Pond Subject: Raising all metronome marks Hello, I like my tempo markings to be a bit higher than the default in lilypond. I'm struggling to figure out how to globally raise them. I can do it locally with \offset Y-offset 3 for instance, of \tweak Y-offset #3, but I can't get it to work globally. I've tried \override MetronomeMark.Y-offset = #3 as well as \offset Y-offset 3 MetronomeMark , but neither seems to work. Any suggestions? Thanks, Ben

Re: Make D.S. and Coda objects RED
Hello all,
You can also use something like :
\override Staff.StaffSymbol.color = #(x11-color 'SlateBlue1)
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X11_color_names for an extensive explanation
of the name colors

Sorry… didn’t test. Should have been

Re: Drum notation and style
Hello Adrian,
Being a drummer, I'm certain there is something wrong in the sticking off the
roll the way you wrote it (see screen capture below)
[cid:466e02cf-022d-4c6f-9e53-7a137f8740ef]
I did a small example with the "unfolded roll" so you can see what I mean.
Maybe what you want to do is the second example ?

And the solution for two lines of sticking notation is sufficient: sn16^"R"^"L" sn^"r"^"l" sn^"r"^"l" sn^"r"^"l" I think I can figure out better spacing. However, is it possible to get the dashes slanted for drum rolls? Currently they're straight. Ideally they would overwrite or replace the two beams. [Screenshot 2024-01-18 063914.png] Also, how do I style the color of the dashes? They remain distinct (black) from the rest of the note.

However ...
As the 2.25 series has been developed, the arrival of 2.25.6 brought along a
significantly redone font handling system. One of the new features is that font
selection is now just another property, and can be modified on a per-grob
basis. Which makes what you want fairly simple and straight forward. Once the
LilyJazz font files have been placed as needed, it's just a matter of modifying
the properties of the SegnoMark and CodaMark grobs. Like this:
\version "2.25.12"
drum = \drummode {
sn4 sn sn sn
\segnoMark 1
sn4 sn sn sn
\codaMark 1
sn4 sn sn sn
}
\score {
\new DrumStaff {
\drum
}
}
\layout {
\context {
\Score
\override CodaMark.fonts.music = "lilyjazz"
\override SegnoMark.fonts.music = "lilyjazz"
}
}
This will mean that you would have to make the jump to the development series,
so you'll have to decide for yourself if that's something you're willing to do.
I can say that I've been using the development versions for a while and
generally they're working just fine. The only real issue I've encountered was
when the newer versions switched to Guile 3 one of the third-party packages I'm
using didn't like that, but I've managed to get through that. Other than that
all has been well. So if Guile 3 isn't for you, something between 2.25.6 and
2.25.10 (I think it was .11 where Guile 3 came in) should be safe.

Re: Hide a note inside a drumscore
Thanks for your reply
I tried your exemple with the tie which also work great
In the full drumscore the tie gets "pushed" down. I'm trying to figure out a
way to reposition it but I can't get any command to do so (tried "\tweak
positions" and "\override Tie.positions")
Any ideas ?
"You are thinking too complicated." ==> it's just an idea, I'm thinking even
more complicated than that 浪

You are thinking too complicated.
\version "2.24.2"
up = \drummode {
\slurDown \grace {sn16 sn(} 4
}
\score {
\new DrumStaff
<< \new DrumVoice { \voiceOne \up } >>
\layout {}
}
But I consider it very likely that you actually don't want a slur but a
tie:
\version "2.24.2"
up = \drummode {
\grace {sn16 sn_~} 4
}
\score {
\new DrumStaff
<< \new DrumVoice { \voiceOne \up } >>
\layout {}
}

The issue you are running into is that overrides won't work on a single item
when there's more than one of them happening at the same moment in the music.
As these are (basically) notes within a chord, they're at the same moment. And
the \hide command is just a shortcut for an override on the grob's Transparent
property. In the case of simultaneous grobs, you want the \tweak command.
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.25/Documentation/notation/tweak-and-single
So, your code would become:
\version "2.24.2"
up = \drummode {
\slurDown \grace { sn16 sn( } 4
}
\score {
\new DrumStaff <<
\new DrumVoice {
\voiceOne \up
