I'm sorry to make a negative and unhelpful comment, but please don't do
this if you want anyone else to read this part. If I were sight-reading
and came across such a bar, I'd have to stop. About the closest I've
ever seen to this is percent marks for one voice (the regular bass drum
part) while the sd and cymbals in the other voice do more interesting
things.

I don't understand why but this works like a charm with  { hh8*6 s4 }

Thanks Mark !

For sure, i'll post some new challenges (..at least for me..) :)

P.



Your approach seems right  - I don't know of a way to force measure
width. You can fine-tune it by adjusting the scaled duration of the
single hh8. Try these in drumContentsBreak and notice the variation:

s1 { hh8*8 } s1 \noBreak s1 \break
s1 { hh8*4 s2 } s1 \noBreak s1 \break
s1 { hh8*6 s4 } s1 \noBreak s1 \break

The last one seems about right to me. HTH,

Mark

Your approach seems right  - I don't know of a way to force measure
width. You can fine-tune it by adjusting the scaled duration of the

Special note over a percent measure /OR/ How to set measure width (with text...)

2008-12-10 Thread lucifree 





(sorry for multiple post, it seems my webmail is not the best to
deal with the list)


Hi all, 

This is my first post to improve my experience with this wonderful tool.

Here is the problem : i use 'repeat percent' feature but i'd like to
change a note on 2nd and following measures.

clear ? To avoid losing your time here is a picture of what a get : 
http://www.freeimagehosting.net/image.php?40c8e65398.jpg  
(this is with drum but could be with other instruments)

- 1st line : basic look without trick
-
2nd line : with the trick to have what i want : i WANT the percents but
since first note of first measure is an "exception", i want to restore
the "normal" value. 

My trick is by using a "break" voice, and inserting my note here
instead of a "skip". 

This works excepted for the visual look : you can see that width of
measures is really changed and the look is bad. 

- How can I keep / force the width of the percent measure ? 
- Besides, if there is a cleaner way to insert the note instead of
using another voice, i take it :)

Many thanks for your help.

and here is the script of my demo (also attached) :


==
drumContentsBreak = \drummode 
{     
    s1 \break % dummy line to have same space for the 2 next lines
    s1 s1 s1 \noBreak s1
    \break
    s1 { hh8 s2.. } s1 \noBreak s1
}

drumContentsUp = \drummode 
{     
    s1
    \repeat percent 4 {
        cymc8 hh hh hh hh hh hh hh  
    }
    \break
    \repeat percent 4 {
        cymc8 hh hh hh hh hh hh hh
