Re: show chord symbol in each bar

[Gilles THIBAULT]

Sorry, Peter, I don't have a solution for you. But I am quite sure someone
else has :-)
Well, i don't know if it is excatly what Peter needs, but with the last 
version of "changePitch.ly", available here :

http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?u=1&id=654
you can avoid to repeat several times a chord :

\include "changePitch.ly"

melody = \relative {
   c4 d e f g f e d c d e f g f e2
   b4 c d e f e d c b c d e f e d e
   c1
}
patI = \samePitch { c1 c1 c1 c1}
%% \cPI will automatically repeat 4 times each chords
\score {
 <<
  \new  ChordNames {
   \cPI {  }
   1
  }
  \new Staff \melody
 >>
}

(a small doc in pdf format is also available here :
http://gillesth.free.fr/Lilypond/changePitch/ )

Note too, that I have heard (in the lilypond-devel list) of a new symbol : 
"q"  that will allow to remplace the previous chord. I don't know if it is 
already available in the last 2.13 version

No, that's not true. LilyPond by default (at least it does in 2.12.2 and 
2.13.11) prints out every chord that you explicitly name... E.g.:

\score {
  <<
\new ChordNames \chordmode {
  c1 c1 c1 c1
}
\new Staff  \relative c' {
  c1 e1 g1 c1
}
  >>
}

Of course, if you only use c1*4, then you explicitly tell LilyPond: "Here is 
one C chord lasting for 4 measures, but print it only once". If you want it 
printed, you have to explicitly give it, like c1 c1 c1 c1.

Cheers,
Reinhold

It's not that simple. Lilypond per default is so smart as to not repeat
chords if they are the same as before.

You also have to make sure that chordChanges is correctly set.

Read the relevant doc section for more details:


Hope this helps!

Re: show chord symbol in each bar

[James Bailey]

Hello, you have to state when you want the chord symbol to show.  
Maybe I'm not saying that correctly.


In the same way you have to type out each note and its duration, you  
have to type out each chord and its corresponding duration.


so, if your melody consists of the same note repeated once per bar  
for four bars, you have to write out the same note repeated once per  
bar for four bars.


Similarly, if you melody consists of the same chord repeated once per  
bar for four bars, you have to write out the same chord repeated once  
per bar for four bars.

I have not found a solution for the following "problem"

If I use, e.g.  a 4 bar melody sequence which only has one Chord the
assigned chord symbol is only shown over the first bar (1) he and not
the over the other bars (2-4).
I would like to have the Chordsymbolover all bars (1-4) is this
possible?

Other, is it possible to change the Color of a single barline?


Thanks for advice,

Hello,

I really like Lilypond an the snipplet and documentary is very usable,
thanks a lot for this.

I have not found a solution for the following "problem"

If I use, e.g.  a 4 bar melody sequence which only has one Chord the
assigned chord symbol is only shown over the first bar (1) he and not
the over the other bars (2-4). 
I would like to have the Chordsymbolover all bars (1-4) is this
possible?

Other, is it possible to change the Color of a single barline?


Thanks for advice, 

all the best,
peter
