Hello, is there a way so that lilypond treats an entire staff as a single bar

How about this?

Looks fine to me.  As Xavier and David mentioned, probably better to override 
the stencil instead of removing the engraver:

  \layout {

  \Staff 
  \override TimeSignature #'stencil = #point-stencil% = ##f  also works

Re: No time signature or bar lines

2013-02-09 Thread SoundsFromSound
Thank you for posting this - it helped me with an exercise I was making for
someone.

One question:

How would one do this exact thing but for a solo /piano /staff? I can't seem
to add the global time signature/no bar lines for a grand staff - it messes
it all up.  I'm making a mistake somewhere.

Can someone help me do this with a piano staff?
(\new PianoStaff?)

Thanks!

  \override Staff.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f
(or remove "Time_signature_engraver" but I would not use this because
of possible "side-effects" that could occur)

IIRC \cadenzaOn prevents automatic line breaks, you need to insert
manually \bar "" commands at places you want to allow line breaks.

  \set Timing.defaultBarType = ""
does not have this drawback and thus might be preferable depending on
what you want.

Cheers,
Xavier

Just so you know, in default LilyPond mode (ie. not Ancient mode), the 
most appropriate way of specifying the locations of barlines is by 
specifying the appropriate time-signatures for each measure.


> I'm guessing that the whichBar = #"" command makes it work for every 

> staff?

No. It works for every staff because it's in...
  \layout { \context { \Staff *here* } }

The whichBar command effectively removes all barlines, but that's a 
weird way of doing it. If you're curious, replace that line with 
  whichBar = #"|"
and see what it does. Your code will be more correct and easier to
understand, however, if you replace the whichBar command with
  \remove Bar_engraver
That is, if you want to remove *all* barlines.


Remember, when you're coding, don't use something just because it
works in that instance; better instead to use the appropriate 
command. If you want to remove all barlines, use
  \remove Bar_engraver
If you want to make them transparent, use 
  \override BarLine #'transparent = ##t (in the Staff context)

By the way, somebody should change that snippet.

Thanks all for the help.

I found that Mark's solution works best, with one minor addition from
an example on the LSR:

 \layout {
raggedright = ##t
\context {
  \Staff
  whichBar = #""
  \remove "Time_signature_engraver"
}
  }

I'm guessing that the whichBar = #"" command makes it work for every staff?

Thanks again,

Actually, most of the relevant chapter has been updated, but not the parts
about working with chant in modern notation. Until then, you may find the
attached file useful. It was made to mimic a very specific layout, but you
may play around with some of the settings in the layout section.

There are also some useful hints in the lsr.

Umm, try looking at that chapter slightly less than "briefly".
The examples should answer that question.

Ok, in that case you'll need to dig a bit deeper.  Try searching

I think it's better to remove the Time_signature_engraver

needing to retype the command for each staff. See below.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

This is the method I've been using:

\relative c' {
\override Staff.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f
}

Cheers,

Re: No time signature?

2008-11-17 Thread Derek Schmidt
Graham,

I did briefly look at that chapter. What I really need to know is:
will it take away any bar lines? Or at least let me decide where to
put them?

I actually don't want the Gregorian style (or, at least, that's not
what I'm working on). I don't know enough about Gregorian chant to
know if it's similar (for all intents and purposes) to Slavic and
Byzantine chant.

Thanks again,
A

The Ancient music chapter shows many examples of this, but
unfortunately it has not been updated yet, and I can't figure out
how to do it indepedently of the rest of the Mensural or Gregorian
style.

However, I'd be surprised if you *don't* want the rest of the
Gregorian style (if that's the type of chant you're doing), so I
would encourage you to look at the Ancient music chapter of the
docs.

Cheers,
- Graham

Why not follow the instructions in

?

PLEASE keep LilyPond questions on the mailist -- you should probably
do something like "reply to group" or "reply to mailist", depending
upon your email client.

Have you checked the examples?  (they're in the directory input/test/ ,
and you might also want to check out input/regression/ .  You can also
see them in the web documentation, although I forget what they're
called in the 1.6.0 documentation)

I'm certain that one of them has the info you want.

The reason I'm pointing you at the examples is that I can't remember
offhand.  It's probably something like #f or ##f.

Hi,

I found a way to suppress the time signature and the time bars,
that is to put:
  \property Staff.TimeSignature = \turnOff
  \property Score.defaultBarType = \turnOff
This does the job, but doesn't suppress the bar numbers.
I don't wan't to see these bar numbers.
The final answer for removing the time signature, the bars AND the bar 
numbers (if any) is to put the next two rules into the Score context:

\property Staff.TimeSignature = \turnOff
\property Score.timing = \turnOff
That does the job! I hope this closes this issue.

I suggest to add this as an example in the manual, in the section about 
Time Signature, or to write a function for doing this, or to modify the 
function \time for accepting "none" as possible argument.

Cheers.

Please keep LilyPond discussions on the mail list; that way if I'm busy for
a few days, somebody else might answer.

Evidently the notation I suggested is incorrect for 1.6.10.

As it happens, the \staffContext should have been capitalized.  This works
in 1.9.8:
\paper{
\translator { \StaffContext \remove Time_signature_engraver }
}

If that doesn't work in 1.6.10, then either upgrade LilyPond (version 2.0.0
came out today), or look through the user manual, regression tests, or the
tricks and tips examples to find the old notation for it.

Please see the section on "invisible grobs" in the manual.

I highly recommend bookmarking

since many questions have already been asked on this mailist;
searching the archive can often result in getting an answer much
faster than emailing here.
