Sorry to all, I just realised, that the paragraph with the problem was gone... here we go: If I use my workaround, the vertical alignment does not fit with the 'regular' fgured bass symbols, it is printed a little lower; for the current problem it does not matter, but I suggest to add the 'carat' as as default symbol available in figured bass mode. cheers, christian grisu_76 wrote: Hi!

Dear Members, a while ago I discussed with Neil (thanks again!) th alignment of the figured-bass-items: for illustration, see the attached examples: _default: as it is programmed in 2.12: here, the combination of accidentals and numbers work well, but if one uses the accidental solely (i.e. the third is changed) a small accidental makes diffuculties in reading _fontsize_0: with the changed font-size in the translation-functions: changed fontsize causes unexpected results regarding to the y-position of numbers with accidentals especially in combination with the natural-sign _definition_changed: with Neils suggestion to solve the alignment-problem: the y-position of accidentals with numbers now work perfect; in addition, from the state of practice, it would be great if anyone has an idea to solve the following: if one uses the accidental solely (see above) the y-position is different (clearly seen if extenders are used); is there a way to handle accidentals eqal to the numbers (in respect to the y-position) if they are used solely? thanks and best regards, Christian http://old.nabble.com/file/p26267481/test_fig_bass_default.pdf test_fig_bass_default.pdf http://old.nabble.com/file/p26267481/test_fig_bass_fontsize_0.pdf test_fig_bass_fontsize_0.pdf http://old.nabble.com/file/p26267481/test_fig_bass_definition_changed.pdf test_fig_bass_definition_changed.pdf -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Figured-Bass-Alignment---follow-up-tp26267481p26267481.html Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

satisfactiory solution for the incipit-problem yet?
Hi everyone! I am transcribing choir-music from the early 19th century; there the vocal parts used the soprano/alto/tenore-clef for these voices; I transcribe them into treble clef (as it is used in modern notation) but the original clefs should be seen (the well known problem...) I tried to use this workaround with the instrument-names, but then I have severe problems with the aign-spaceing of the names of the accompaining string-quartet; regards to all! Christian see my approach here: \include deutsch.ly \version 2.12.2 global = { \time 2/4 \key es \major } %%% * defines the incipit * incipitsopran = \markup{\score{ { \set Staff.instrumentName = \markup{\normalsize{Soprano}} \clef soprano \override Staff.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f \set clef.fontSize = #-2 \set Staff.fontSize = #-2 s8 } \layout { ragged-right = ##t } }} %%% ** Starts the music ** Sopran = { \relative c''{ \set Staff.midiInstrument = #violin b4 \p b c8( b) b4 } } \score { \new ChoirStaff \new Staff \new Voice = incipitsopran {\set Staff.instrumentName=\incipitsopran \global \Sopran} \layout { ragged-right = ##t indent = 3\cm short-indent = 1.5\cm } } -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/satisfactiory-solution-for-the-incipit-problem-yet--tp23676865p23676865.html Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Bug supposed
Hi everyone, I have got the suspicion, that I detected a bug in 2.12 - but I am not sure:confused:: As I wrote into the group on April 19th, I try to engrave a grace note at the beginning of a pickup-bar; The whole story is, that I engrave a string quartet useing the string-quartet snippet for the snippets-manual (p. 230 ff); This uses several files to generate either the full score or the single parts; Up to the last movement all worked perfect, but the third movement begins with a grace note in a pickup bar; The example is as follows: % Music -definition (= FILE 1: satz03) \include deutsch.ly global = { \time 6/8 \key es \major \tempo Presto } \markup { \fill-line { \huge III. } } ViolineEins = \new Voice {\relative c'{ \set Staff.midiInstrument = #violin \grace {d8} \partial 8*3 c8 d e c d e \bar |. }} ViolineZwei = \new Voice {\relative c'{ \set Staff.midiInstrument = #violin \grace {d8} \partial 8*3 c8 d e c d e \bar |. }} Viola = \new Voice {\relative c'{ \clef alto \set Staff.midiInstrument = #viola \grace {d8} \partial 8*3 c8 d e c d e \bar |. }} Cello = \new Voice {\relative c{ \clef bass \set Staff.midiInstrument = #cello \grace {d8} \partial 8*3 c8 d e c d e \bar |. }} music = { \tag #'score \tag #' vn1 \new Staff { \global \ViolineEins } \tag #'score \tag #' vn2 \new Staff { \global \ViolineZwei } \tag #'score \tag #' vla \new Staff { \global \Viola } \tag #'score \tag #' vlc \new Staff { \global \Cello } } %%%END OF FILE 1 % File 2 includes File 1 useing the \tag to get the information of all voices %%score for third movement; FILE 2: (=quartetto_in_c_satz03.ly) \include satz03.ly # (set-global-staff-size 14) \score { \new StaffGroup \keepWithTag #'score \music \layout {} \midi { \context { \Score tempoWholesPerMinute = #(ly:make-moment 285 8) } } } %%%END OF FILE 2 % Now to the supposed bug: Mats Bengtsson gave me the hint to try it in the following way (which works without any problems - thanks Mats =)) TESTFILE \include deutsch.ly ViolineEins = \new Voice {\relative c'{ \set Staff.midiInstrument = #violin \grace {c''8} \partial 8*3 b8\p (a) b-. g8-. g-. g-. \grace{as} g(f) g-. \bar |. }} ViolineZwei = \new Voice {\relative c'{ \set Staff.midiInstrument = #violin \grace {s8} \partial 8*3 r4 r8 es'8-.\p es-. es-. r4 r8 \bar |. }} \new Staff { \time 6/8 \key es \major \ViolineEins \ViolineZwei } % END OF FILE 3 %%% Here, the rintout is perfect! To sum it up: obviously the grace not at the beginning of a score is crucial (as it is reported in the reference manual on p. 78 Known issues and warnings); one can override the problem to fill in unvisible grace notes for each single voice - which works well; all other methods I tried do not work (to be more precisely: I did not found a solution - so I suppuse a bug) Useing the snippet with the \tag function, there is the problem that 1.) the grace note is printet between the key signature and the time signature 2.) the default beams do not longer work 3.) the time signature of (in my example 6/8) is ignored and reset to C That's it - I wanted to let you know that... Best regards, Christian P.S.: Don't be upset for posting the whole example - I am convinced that it is necessary to get the whole problem :wistle: -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Bug-supposed-tp23263063p23263063.html Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Line break and page fit do not work
I found the source of the problem: It wasn't the measure length, it was a problem with forced beams: I wrote: g4 [ g h,8 g h,8] g4 [ g h,8 g h,8] in a 4/4 instead of: c4 g h,8 [ g h,8] g4 g h,8 [ g h,8] But this syntax error occurred several measures before the measure I suspected to cause the problem.
