I don't know how to put vertical lines around quarters, but for the
rest you can try something like the following (until somebody can show
a better solution):

%
\version "2.11.34"
\paper{ ragged-right=##t }

\score{

  \new Voice \relative e' {
\set Staff.instrumentName = "IV  "
\cadenzaOn
\override Stem #'transparent = ##t

s4 e4 g \bar "dashed" a\breve
\set fontSize = #-2
s4
< \parenthesize g >
a\breve
\set fontSize = #+2
g4_- a
\once \override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(0.7 . 0.0) 
b^\markup{\fontsize #-7 "/"}
< \parenthesize a >
\bar "|" \once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'extra-offset = #'(0.0 . 
-7.0) \mark "*"
a\breve g4_- a b
\once \override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(0.7 . 0.0) 
g^\markup{\fontsize #-7 "/"}
e \bar "||"

\cadenzaOff

See sections
  "Printing stanzas at the end"
and
  "Printing stanzas at the end in multiple columns"
in the manual.

The section
   "Overview of text markup commands"
may be helpful, too.

Hi Robert,


I'm afraid I don't really understand your problem, but
if you don't want barlines I recommend to you that you
simply use ChoirStaff instead of StaffGroup.

Sorry if that doesn't help.

Happy New Year!

LilyPond can create image files.
If, for example, your .ly source is called music.ly
you can call LilyPond from the command line as follows:

  lilypond --png music.ly

This will create an image file (.png) instead of a .pdf file.
You can set the resolution in DPI with the -dresolution
option:

  lilypond --png -dresolution=150 music.ly

MetronomeMark alignment

2008-12-29 Thread Zoltan Selyem


Hi all,


I like the new textual description feature of metronome marks.

Is there a way to position (align) metronome marks the way it is
possible with rehearsal marks? As far as I can see, MetronomeMark
doesn't have a self-alignment-X property, nor a break-align-symbols
property. I would like to have these...

This old post should explain why I need this function:

I'm interested in helping with including Hungarian terms in the
Music Glossary! Though I'm not sure how much time I will have
for it, but I certainly would like to be part of that work.

The question is:
Where and in what format should I send the Hungarian terms?

I suppose the Music Glossary is made with lilypond-book.
Is the source file available?

Stanza number placing question

2011-12-11 Thread Zoltan Selyem

Hi all,

When the lyrics begin with a stanza number, the number doesn't take up
space in the score (as it can be seen in the attached example).

When the stanza number is in the middle of a line, the number does
take up space, moving the notes apart from the previous bar line.
This makes sense in most cases, but with no lyrics in the previous
measure, it would look better to place the stanza number before the
bar line. Is there a way to achieve this?

You can see the difference in the center of the attached pictures,
right after the repeat sign.

Thank you in advance for your answers.

Zoltan

To left-align the note with the words you have to change the
self-alignment-X parameter of LyricText.

If the words are too close to each other you can increase
the distance between the syllables with the minimum-distance
parameter of LyricSpace.

For example:

%---
\version "2.11.21"
\paper{ ragged-right=##t }
\relative a' {
  \time 4/2
  a\breve | g1 a
}
\addlyrics{
  \override LyricSpace #'minimum-distance = #3.0
  \override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #LEFT
  Bénis_le_Seigneur_ô_mon_âme
  A -- men
}
%---

Version 2.11 automatically positions the text correctly to avoid
collision.

However, you can increase the padding property yourself with
\override Score.RehearsalMark #'padding = #2.0

In your example:

\version "2.10.20"
\header {
title = "High School of Cello Playing"
subtitle = "40 Etudes"
subsubtitle = "No. 1"
composer = "David Popper"
opus = "Op. 73"
}
\relative c {
\clef bass

\override Score.RehearsalMark #'self-alignment-X = #LEFT
\override Score.RehearsalMark #'break-align-symbol = #'key-signature
\once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'padding = #2.0
\mark \markup{\bold "Allegro molto moderato." }

\time 12/8

  c8-. c'-. b-. a-. c-. g-. f-. a-. e-. d-. f-. c-. 
b-. d'-. c-. b-. d-. a-. g-. b-. f-. e-. g-. d-.
}

Re: slur problem

2007-06-08 Thread Zoltan Selyem

Hello Tao,


A smaller example of your problem is this:

%% - LilyPond code -
\version "2.11.23"
\paper{ ragged-right=##t }
\relative c'' {
  c c c c( |
  <<
{ c) c c c( }
  \\
{ g g g g }
  >>
  c c) c c |
}
%% -- end of code --

The << \upper \\ \lower >> code creates two new voices,
and both \upper and \lower are different from the main voice.
Each voice has its own slurs.

This is the problem. Unfortunately I don't know the solution,
but maybe someone smarter will help you.

Hello Claus,

You can use
  \override Rest #'staff-position = #0
for "normal" rests (lower case r's)
and
  \override MultiMeasureRest #'staff-position = #0
for whole bar rests and multi measure rests (upper case R's).
