Re: Rest in Lyrics

2015-08-04 Thread Alberto Simões

Hi all,

Sorry for the late acknowledgment (vacation mode).
This example worked like a charm, and possible other suggestions too 
(I'm going through them now).


Thank you, once more,
Alberto

Hello

I know it is not a common practice, but I would like to put in the middle of
the lyrics text, a quarter rest (in parenthesis), in order to make it clear
that nothing should be sang in that note (and also because I am trying to
copy what was written by the composer).

I tried to look up in the snippets repository, but didn't find anything
useful (probably didn't look properly).

Thank you,
Alberto

Alternatively:


  \new Voice = melody { c''4 d'' e'' f'' }
  \new Lyrics \with { \consists Rest_engraver
  \override Rest.Y-offset = 0.5
}
  \lyricsto melody {
c d \notemode { \parenthesize r4 } f

 Wow, that's cool!

 I was annoyed of having to replace the original \addlyrics with the
 whole \lyricsto machinery, so I've added
 URL:https://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=4537.



At least in the minimal example

\layout {
  \context {
\Lyrics
\consists Rest_engraver
\override Rest.Y-offset = 0.5
  }
}

\new Voice { c''4 d'' e'' f'' }
\addlyrics { c d \notemode { \parenthesize  r4 } f }

works as well.
If we allow this general approach for every Lyrics-context (and
ofcourse we do so), then it's a strong argument to allow \with for the
context created by \addlyrics as well.

Cheers,
  Harm

Every other context-creating command accepts \with (this includes
\context ... which will only use the context mod _if_ it creates a new
context rather than switch to an existing one).  Including the old
shortcuts \lyrics, \figures, \chords, \drums.  But not \lyricsto which
does not create a context of its own.

So it just means fewer things to remember if \addlyrics is not
exceptional in that respect.

Rest in Lyrics

2005-01-10 Thread Georg Dummer
Hi all,

I am new on the list and hope this question was not answered before:
I have a song with multiple stanzas. In one of them I want to skip a note which 
is normally done by saying “ _ ” in the lyrics. For better understanding I want 
to put an accordant rest symbol at this place in the text (in my case it is 
quarter rest). 
Thank you for any hint. (my version: \version 2.4.2)

Regards 
Georg

The trick is to include a \markup{...} command in the lyrics,
read the section on Text Markup in the manual for details.
