Re: point and click (was: Alpha-release of Frescobaldi 2.0)
So in the future it may become possible to drag a note to a different octave, or to draw slurs between notes by dragging, or to right-click a slur and select "Down" or "Dashed" or whatever. All without needing any change to LilyPond itself. if you allow me to make a feature request, the slur tweaking and the object moving tools in lilypondtool are very useful timesavers. it would be really cool to have such features in frescobaldi. besides that, many thanks and congratulations for creating such a neat tool. now that it's cross-platform, it can become THE lilypond editor for a lot of people. -- greetings, Vicente ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

The problem I had finding this setting is that the color rectangles in the preferences/fonts+colors dialog are not intialized to the current colors, not even after having selected an actual color from the palette.

Everything is configurable indeed: Edit->Preferences->Fonts & Colors->Preview Background and Preview Highlight. But the latter is by default derived from the current UI-style's selection color (which is blue on many systems, but can also be of a different color.).

One suggestion I have is to make the highlight box contrast better with the background. The PDF view is black on light beige and the highlight is a slightly darker beige. Something more obvious like purple or green would make it more prominent. Or is this configurable? I didn't see any way to change the background color of the PDF view either (I prefer black on white). -- Brett W.

Frescobaldi 2 couples the point-and-click links as soon as a PDF is loaded to positions in the text document. If you alter the document, the links in the PDF document stay connected with the positions in the text document. Frescobaldi 2 can also find objects in the PDF: if you walk with the text cursor or select text, the corresponding objects in the PDF are highlighted. If you press Ctrl+J, the PDF scrolls to the page where the music at the text cursor is at. This paves the way to more interesting capabilities, as Frescobaldi knows what type of object a clickable link in the PDF represents (a note, rest, slur, articulation, rehearsalmark, etc) because it continuously parses the text as it is entered or modified. The parsed tokens are stored, so lookup what kind of object is at some cursor position is very fast. (You can see this e.g. when you hover a slur in the music, Frescobaldi highlights not only the start parenthesis of the slur in the text but also the ending one.) So in the future it may become possible to drag a note to a different octave, or to draw slurs between notes by dragging, or to right-click a slur and select "Down" or "Dashed" or whatever. All without needing any change to LilyPond itself. best, Wilbert -- Wilbert Berendsen (http://www.wilbertberendsen.nl) ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
