Re: Score layout - ragged bottom and page break?
Thanks, Michael - that looks like the perfect answer. Typical of me, I
seem to have explored every page in the documentation except for that one.
Thanks again,

Might try putting each score into a \bookpart section. When I put multiple
scores into a single PDF that's how I go about it - works quite well for
me. Something like:
\paper {
::global paper settings ::
}
\book {
\bookpart {
\paper {
:: paper settings for just this score ::
}
\score {
:: the score ::
}
}
\bookpart {
:: and the next score, and so forth ::
}
}
One note - using \bookpart inserts a page break between parts, so no need
for any explicit \pageBreak commands. For some more details have a look at:

Score layout - ragged bottom and page break?
Hello, (Note: Lilypond v. 2.24.2, in Linux.) I am setting a group of pieces; each piece is in its own score block. I want each score to start on a new page, and the final page in each score to have a ragged-last-bottom, so that the systems are evenly spaced - these are duets, and I like no more than 6 systems per a4 page. I am managing this so far by having a pageBreak command between each score block. The trouble is that this seems to have the effect of filling each page equally, and overriding the system-system-spacing variables I've set in the paper block. The only score which is properly set is the last one, which is not followed by a pageBreak command. I've tried putting "ragged-last-bottom = ##t" in the global layout block, and in the layout block within a score, but it makes no difference. How can I force each score with a book to have a last ragged bottom, and each score beginning on a new page? Many thanks, Alasdair -- Alasdair McAndrew (he/him) mob: 0432 854 858 https://numbersandshapes.net
Score Layout, several questions
Good morning,
I've been tasked with preparing the score of what will be a critical
edition of some liturgical works of a lesser-known 18th-century composer.
Because of the nature of the source (the composer was writing at a
monastery), the originals are engraved using single-press typesetting (ie,
each note is its own block, so staff-lines and whatnot aren't continuous),
so it's an interesting exercise in historical scores. However, I have some
questions about some aspects of using Lily to do this. Namely:
1) I'd really like to use the ScholarLY tools to add annotations to the
score, and I've managed to include it in my .ly file with the following:
--
\version 2.19.18
#(set-global-staff-size 13)
%%Include OpenLilyLib and init ScholarLY
\include openlilylib
\useLibrary Scholarly
\useModule scholarly.annotate
\paper {
#(define fonts
(set-global-fonts
#:music emmentaler
#:brace emmentaler
#:roman Linux Libertine G
#:sans Linux Biolinum G
#:typewriter DejaVu Sans Mono
#:factor (/ staff-height pt 20 )))
---
(NB: I have the global-staff-size set way up at the top because of the
staff-height within the \paper block, which has to come after
set-global-staff-size, right?)
However, compiling throws an error at the \paper { line, and then a
bunch more, like this from the log:
---
openLilyLib: library infrastructure successfully loaded.

--
Am I formatting something wrong in my file? Does incorporating openlilylib
introduce new ways of specifying the \paper block? Also, is there a way to
use scholarLY without producing a pdf in color? The end product has to be
b/w, for reasons that should become clear below.
2) Also, for this project, I have from the publisher an exemplar of their
typesetting standards. One of the things I notice is that they have an
almost pathological avoidance of beams crossing staff lines at an angle. To
avoid this, most measures with beams move them outside of the staff
entirely, and make the beam angle itself (if there is any) considerably
shallower. Is there a general setting I can set to achieve something
similar? I can't really convince the publisher to change their æsthetics,
and I only see options for setting stem length absolutely.
3) Lastly, is there a general way to increase space between systems on a
page? I only have room for two to a page, but there looks like about .5cm
free along the bottom margin. I'd prefer to spread the systems out from one
another a bit more; how can I do this?
Thanks for the help. I just started working with Lily last Friday, she
seems nice.
Cheers,
A

Re: Score Layout, several questions
oh, heavens! I'm sorry, I didn't mean I was trying to reproduce them (and yes, that's what I meant about the score: it looks like that, though with oval noteheads. Just figuring out what printing technology they were using would be interesting to me. I wonder if they were deliberately using older types because of the liturgical nature of the material). I just meant it's interesting work transcribing it into modern notation. No, I do intend for the score to be a fully modern edition. Anyway, no, I didn't mean to imply I actually wanted to reproduce that notation. Just that it's fun (?) to read. Thanks for the tips on Beam.damping. I'll fiddle around with it.

You must put the variable call inside a \layout block:
\score {
\myMusic
\layout {

}
will work fine.

Variables in LilyPond are not textual entities but Scheme expressions.
Some keywords like \layout throw LilyPond into a mode, like one suitable
for creating output definitions, or drum parts or whatever. And to
interpret such a variable, you sometimes need to be in the right mode
already (because the information _what_ kind of output definition is in
the variable created by \layout is not there). Basically, when putting
stuff into a variable and reusing the result, you are safer off if you
consult the grammar when things go wrong.

What font size have you used on that a4 version? I tried 11.5 and it worked quite well - there is less unused vertical space compared to what you posted (of course at the expense of page count). Do you have some example of good LilyPond-made orchestral score, so we can compare it to this overture? Also there might be one more thing - beam width. Contrary to line thickness, relative beam width doesn't change with font size: because of that beams are less and less distinct from staff lines when font size gets smaller.

Score Layout / Page Breaks etc...
Hello everyone,
I'm trying to pull all the various parts of a score
and place them into one score. I've been experimenting with many different ways
of putting a file together. The one thing I can't seem to do is make a page
break. I've followed (I think -- well it looks right) the manual on combining
several pieces to make a large one but the "breakbefore = ##t" command is always
ignored. If I compile the example in the manual "10.1.13 Creating titles" and
add the \header { breakbefore = ##t} to the second pieceit
works.
Can anyone help am I overlooking
anything?
Currently running Windows XP /
2.7.26

breakbefore requires a piece field, ie

piece =

I thought that I'd added that to the manual under bugs... if it isn't
there, or if it's in the wrong place, could you let me know?

Re: Score Layout / Page Breaks etc...
Thanks Graham.
I'm looking at the 2.7 documentation online and under 10.1.11 Page breaking
the reference to adding piece is not there..
Regards,
Trent

As you can see, the score layout used is the old-styled layout, where
the voice staff lies between the viola and the bass. This layout is
perfect except for one thing; How do I connect the vertical barlines
between the viola staff and the violin staff above? The barline break
between the viola and voice staff, as well as between the voice and
bass staff, is intended though.
See http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2005-10/msg00042.html
for a possible solution.

score layout
Hi, I am typing a score for a work for voice and strings and I have a problem
with the score layout. I am using Lilypond version 2.7.12 for Windows (98).
Here is the file:
\version 2.7.12
\relative {
\new ChoirStaff
\new GrandStaff
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Violins 1 c1 }
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Violins 2 c }
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Viola \clef alto c }
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Voice c }
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Bass \clef bass c, } }
As you can see, the score layout used is the old-styled layout, where the voice
staff lies between the viola and the bass. This layout is perfect except for
one thing; How do I connect the vertical barlines between the viola staff and
the violin staff above? The barline break between the viola and voice staff, as
well as between the voice and bass staff, is intended though.
Thank you very much.
Yours sincerely,
Seng Liang.

Linux: noteedit-2.3.0: score layout
Version 2.3.0 of the cost free (GPLed) LilyPond exporting musical score editor NoteEdit is available: http://rnvs.informatik.tu-chemnitz.de/~jan/noteedit/noteedit.html New features: - score layout : braces (piano staffs), brackets (staff groups), continued/discontinued bar rules. Note! NoteEdit does its best to export the score layout. But depending on your typesetting system the score layout possibly changes (see below) - Hungarian GUI translation (thanks to Peter Breuer [EMAIL PROTECTED]) - end bar - multi repeats Note! The multi repeat influences the replay but the signature is only exported to MUP. (Perhaps some gurus can sometimes explain to me how to export this into to different typesetting systems). - UTF8 text coding in *.not files. This sould enable correct restore of Russian (Cyrillic), Greek, Hebrew, ... texts. Note! It does not mean it exports Russian, (Cyrillic), Greek, Hebrew, ... texts to MusiXTeX, LilyPond, ABC music, ...! I'm afraid I'd need a native language speaker with some C++ programming knowledge to solve this. Note further! This implies a small version incompatibility if you wrote lyrices and titles containing non-ascii characters :-( Please correct them on NoteEDit score and store them again. Note futher! I'm not quite sure whether this disturbs the KDE-2.x/Qt-2.x compatibility. - the # -- B / B -- # tool influences only the selected part (if any) this is especially usful after Midi import if the score has some B and some # parts. - bugs fixed, among them: + correct replay of dal segno al coda + correct MusiXTeX export of ending repeat close symbol + cleanup rests works (again) Problems exporting score layout === MusiXTeX actually accepts either completely continued or completely discontinued bar rules. If you specify a mix of partial continued and partial discontinued bar rules NoteEdit produces some statements of the musixdbr.tex package by Rainer Dunker. NoteEdit produces a warning and gives advice to install this package. Otherwise MusiXTeX will fail. PMX is a preprocessor to MusiXTeX and therefore the same problems apply. ABC music cannot deal with nested braces in brackets. NoteEdit will warn you. LilyPond can deal with braces and brackets. It changes the staff rules according to some LilyPond inherent rules. I was told it is possible to break these rules. But I assume they are there for good reasons. NoteEdit will warn you if a LilyPond rule will change the staff rule policy. MUP has no limitations. -- J.Anders, Chemnitz, GERMANY ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
