Re: Table of Contents - order by page
Yes... of course that works fine. But it's a workaround, not a fix. The way my files are laid out, I have several files with individual pieces, and each of their facsimile pages. I would like to keep these facsimile pages in the same ly file as the music, but in the final book put all the facsimile pages AFTER the music. Each of the variables are bookparts, which means I have to put the tocItem in the variable, not in the final book. Piece_1.ly Piece_1_Music *tocItem "Piece 1" Piece_1_Facsimile *tocItem "Facsimiles" Piece_2.ly Piece_2_Music *tocItem "Piece 2" Piece_2_Facsimile Final Book order: Piece_1_Music Piece_2_Music Piece_1_Facsimile Piece_2_Facsimile The above configuration would result in the issue described, with the facsimile tocitem appearing BEFORE the piece 2 tocitem in the table of contents even though it comes after it in the book. In general it annoys me in lilypond that variables have to be only ONE thing, and first of all you can't combine, say a variable and a tocitem into another single variable, and second of all even when you do Freddy ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Table of Contents - order by page
The table of contents seems to list its items by the order in which they
were evaluated by the parser, and not by where they actually appear in the
book... Is there a way to avoid this?
for example, even though partB comes AFTER partA in the book, and the PAGES
in the table of contents are right, partB comes listed first in the TOC
which is very annoying, simply because it was evaluated first.
\version "2.18.2"
partB =
\bookpart {
\tocItem "PART B"
\new Staff {
c4 d e f
}
}
partA =
\bookpart {
\tocItem "PART A"
\new Staff {
c4 d e f
}
}
\book {
\bookpart {
\markuplist \table-of-contents
\paper {
tocTitleMarkup = \markup \center-column {
\italic "Contents"
\vspace #0.3
}
tocItemMarkup = \markup {
\fill-with-pattern
#1 #RIGHT " . "
\fromproperty #'toc:text
\fromproperty #'toc:page
}
}
}
\bookpart { \partA }
\bookpart { \partB }
}
thanks for any help.

Hide tocItem when not in final score
Hello, Is there a way to set tocItem tags for each bookpart within variables, but hide the ones that are actually not used? The tocItem function seems to automatically add to the table of contents whether or not that bookpart is actually printed. thanks, Freddy ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Create a bookpart with a scheme function
Still a little confused about how to dynamically create a bookpart:
\version "2.18.2"
freddy = \bookpart {
\score {
\new Staff {
c d e f g
}
}
}
full_scores = \book {
}
#(ly:book-add-bookpart! full_scores freddy)
\full_scores
this doesn't seem to work.

Create a bookpart with a scheme function
I am transcribing music from the 1500s. I would like to include the
original facsimile in my arrangement as EPS files that take up entire
pages. These EPS files are dispersed between the pieces. I have to create
separate bookparts for them because I need to have \paper blocks - I don't
want my normal footer on these pages. Is there a way I can create a dynamic
bookpart that does all of my formatting for me, but simply has a different
EPS file per part? This is what I want:
\book {
\bookpart {
\score {
% arranged music...
}
}
\facsimile_page #140 #"eps_file.eps"}
and this function will insert this bookpart :
\bookpart {
\markup \null
\header {}
\paper {
bookTitleMarkup = ##f
evenHeaderMarkup = \markup \fill-line { \epsfile #X #130
#"***eps_file.eps***" }
oddHeaderMarkup = \markup \fill-line { \epsfile #X #130
#"***eps_file.eps***" }
evenFooterMarkup = \markup {
\fill-line {
\column { \vspace #-63 \fromproperty #'page:page-number-string }
\null
\null
}
}
oddFooterMarkup = \markup {
\fill-line {
\null
\null
\column { \vspace #-63 \fromproperty #'page:page-number-string }
}
}
}}
Is it possible to use Scheme/Guile to create this bookpart each time I call
the function? Any time I try to create a function like this, the page just
doesn't show up at all.
Thanks for any help.

Re: force distance between bars for chord only staff
Thanks Mats, I did upgrade to unstable branch 2.7.27 and the new feature proportional spacing is working fine. Thanks ! Freddy.

Possibly you can use the support for proportional notation introduced in version 2.7.something, see the example called spacing-proportional.ly in the Regression Test document for version 2.7. Otherwise the standard trick is to include an invisible voice with only 16th notes or whatever, which will fix the horizontal spacing. In most scores, this kind of fixed spacing looks so ugly, so that's why it's not directly supported in LilyPond. /Mats [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: May I ask again for assistance on this point ? no feedback for the moment, did I miss to communicate some information ?
