Was there intention behind that variable name?  ;-)


The official reason: very short, to avoid any wrapping of code.

It just happened - while culling hyphens - and then seemed fun.

You can fetch the font-size with#:properties ((font-size 0))
as done in \translate-scaled for example.


And if you are fed up with baseline-skip you can set it to 0,
and it then stays 0 whatever the font-size.

In your case it would suffice to insert vertical gaps because
your column doesn't need to skip exactly like nearby columns do.


\version "2.20.0"

vshim = \markup \combine \null \translate-scaled #'(0 . -0.2) \null
no-bs = #'(baseline-skip . 0)

\markup \line {
\column { A B C 6 }
\override #no-bs \column { A \vshim B \vshim C \vshim 7 }
\fontsize #-6 "..."
\fontsize #-6 \override #no-bs \column { A \vshim B \vshim C \vshim 8 }
\override #no-bs \fontsize #-6 \column { A \vshim B \vshim C \vshim 9 }
}

Hello Robin, thank you for your reply.

The problem here is that \fontsize is never called. The font-size is entirely 
handled by the grob callback ly:text-interface::print. My problem is that at 
Position where the markup is defined the fontsize is in fact not known. I’ve 
solved the issue for the time being by using a on-the-fly call to modify the 
baseline-skip. So now we are somewhere here.

Cheers,
Valentin

Well, when the markup command \fontsize changes the font size, it 
changes the baseline-skip too, to keep it proportional.


But this means that if you are overriding the baseline-skip, you need to 
take care where you place the override wrt \fontsize.  See example 4.



\version "2.20.0"

\markup \line {
\column { A B C 1 }
\override #(cons 'baseline-skip 1.2) \column { A B C 2 }
\fontsize #-6 "..."
\fontsize #-6 \column { A B C 3 }
\fontsize #-6 \override #(cons 'baseline-skip 1.2) \column { A B C 4 }
\override #(cons 'baseline-skip 1.2) \fontsize #-6 \column { A B C 5 }
}

Stacked tensions for chord names

2021-02-28 Thread Valentin Petzel
Hello!

I’ve done a small modification to achieve stacked tensions for ChordNames. My 
problem is now that the baseline-skip of the used columns need to change 
depending on the font size.
Does anyone of you have an idea how one can set baseline-skip to be 
proportional to the font-size?

Cheers,
Valentin
