Re: rest placement in multi-voice piano staff
Hi David,
I was wondering if anyone had a clue as to how to get the eighth rest in
voice three to be shown above the half note in voice four?
Yes: use Lilypond’s automatic voicing:
\new PianoStaff
\new Staff = upper
\new Voice = first { \voiceOne \pianoVoiceOne }
\new Voice = second { \voiceTwo \pianoVoiceTwo }
\new Staff = lower
\clef bass
\new Voice = third { \voiceOne \pianoVoiceThree }
\new Voice = fourth { \voiceTwo \pianoVoiceFour }
This may also allow you to reduce or totally avoid the use of \stemUp and
\stemDown (which are extremely rare in my scores, despite my heavy use of
polyphony).
Hope this helps!
Kieren.
Yes, very much thanks.
I had intended to use the automatic voicing, but somehow got the syntax
wrong.
Nor did I realize that for voices 3 and 4, you use \voiceOne and \voiceTwo.
That explains why I had to add lots of \stemUp and \stemDown commands.
I was expecting everything to just work, and was bummed that I had to deal
with lots of cases manually.

Re: rest placement in multi-voice piano staff
Hi David, I had intended to use the automatic voicing, but somehow got the syntax wrong. Nor did I realize that for voices 3 and 4, you use \voiceOne and \voiceTwo. That’s not exactly the way I would put it… What you call “voices 3 and 4” are actually voices 1 and 2 **in the lower staff**. If you have three or four actual different (polyphonic) voices in a single staff, then you would use \voiceThree and \voiceFour. In other words, each Staff context can have its own \voiceOne, \voiceTwo, etc. [Voice] contexts. That explains why I had to add lots of \stemUp and \stemDown commands. Yes. And with more complex scores, you’d have to add lots of other similar commands (e.g., \tieUp, \stemUp), all of which Lily handles automatically when you use the correct structure.

Re: rest placement in multi-voice piano staff
Hi all, Just for the benefit of anyone reading this thread after the fact… you can specify a placement for the rest by indicating a note\rest. in this case i used g8\rest While that is technically true, we should be encouraging the proper use of the \voiceX commands, which (as I’ve shown) solve the OP’s problem, and introduce a host of other benefits.

You need to use \oneVoice rather than \voiceOne at the end of the
polyphonic section. That fixes the problem.

You write \voiceOne after the closing brackets. That makes LilyPond
think you want to continue with an upper voice.
Write \oneVoice in the same place and you'll have what you (presumably)

Odd rest placement after temp polyphonic context
All,
I noticed something odd in a recent arrangement I helped a friend with.
In two places the voices split into divisi (once in the upper two parts,
m.3 in the example, and once in the lower two parts a few measures after
the first time. m. 12-13 in the example). We used the temp polyphonic
context (TPC) to set notes/lyrics. But immediately after the TPC rests
are no longer set correctly, being too high on the staff. In all four
instances \voiceOne *is* indicated following the TPC and \voiceOne
\voiceTwo are used in the TPC.
It looks like the rests are being set for an upper voice as if two
voices were still being set on the same staff. See the attached .ly file
for a snippet of what I mean. I had to use the commented /override to
get the rests back to the staff-centered position.
Should Lilypond do this?
Regards,
Guy S.

Re: Manual rest placement doesn't seem to work
A solution (or at least a workaround): Use \oneVoice before the rest and then \voice[whatever] after it. I don't like it because it makes the input file busier, but I suspect that a real fix would involve fairly extensive recoding. http://www.geoffhorton.com/lilypond.html#placerests Geoff ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Manual rest placement doesn't seem to work
This bug was reported on bug-lilypond some weeks ago and according to
the ChangeLog file, it was fixed 2006-03-16, i.e. before version 2.8.
However, it seems that the fix didn't solve the problem.
/Mats
Quoting Geoff Horton [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Try these simple examples on your system. If they work, then try to
figure out exactly what the difference is between these examples and
your situation.
It's the \voiceOne etc. that does it.
This does not work:
melody = \relative c'' {
b2\rest
}
alto = \relative c' {
s2
}
\score {
\context Staff = upper
\context Voice =
sopranos { \voiceOne \melody }
\context Voice =
altos { \voiceTwo \alto }
\layout {
ragged-right = ##t
}
}
===
But strip out the \voiceOne and \voiceTwo and it works fine. Changing
\voiceTwo to \voiceThree made no difference (I figured it was worth a
shot).

I've been trying to use the manual placement mechanism and it doesn't

doing it right. Code follows, output attached. Basically, I want the
rests of the center line of each staff.
Please remember to check a minimal example:
\version 2.9.1
{
c2\rest a'2
}
works perfectly.
There may be some issue with manual rests within polyphony... but it
looks fine here:
\version 2.9.1
{
{
f''2\rest a'2
f''2\rest a'2
} \\ {
d'2\rest f'2
s2 f'2
}
}
Try these simple examples on your system. If they work, then try to
figure out exactly what the difference is between these examples and
your situation.

It's the \voiceOne etc. that does it.
This does not work:
melody = \relative c'' {
b2\rest
}
alto = \relative c' {
s2
}
\score {
\context Staff = upper
\context Voice =
sopranos { \voiceOne \melody }
\context Voice =
altos { \voiceTwo \alto }
\layout {
ragged-right = ##t
}
}
===
But strip out the \voiceOne and \voiceTwo and it works fine. Changing
\voiceTwo to \voiceThree made no difference (I figured it was worth a
shot).

Re: Manual rest placement doesn't seem to work
Combining the voices with \partcombine also produces a misplaced rest. Geoff ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Manual rest placement doesn't seem to work
Combining the voices with \partcombine also produces a misplaced rest. Sigh. No, it doesn't. Sorry about that. The other example really is broken, though. Geoff ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Rest Placement
I'm doing this in lilypond-book, version 2.6.4. The top line rests (the up
ones) appear in ledger lines above the stage. How do I stop it moving them
so far up?
ta,
Tim.
\begin[staffsize=20]{lilypond}
\version 2.6.0
up = \drummode { sn4 sn4 r2 sn4 sn4 r2 sn4 sn4 r2 sn4 r4 r2 \bar |.}
down = \drummode { r2 bd4 bd4 r2 bd4 bd4 r2 bd4 bd4 r4 }
\score
{
\new DrumStaff
\set Staff.instrument = 1.
\set Staff.minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-6 . 6)
\clef percussion
\new DrumVoice { \voiceOne \up }
\new DrumVoice { \voiceTwo \down }
\bar |.
}
\end{lilypond}
