dvi to ly?

I found out the hard way that my editor was set to auto-save, now my first, and nearly complete, song has been auto-saved with lots of unwanted changes. I was using my saved song for a template for another song, made many changes, walked away from the computer for about 10 minutes. Now the dog-

can a group of notes be assigned to a constant?

Can a group of notes, maybe the verse, be assigned to a constant? Then the chorus could be assigned to another constant. That would save re-typing all the same notes over several times. Just call the constant at the appropriate time. I thought I had seen this in the manual but now cannot find it

relative mode quandary with example

I am using relative mode to enter notes, and have defined a variable to hold a phrase, which contains one ' mark on the first note. When I call that variable in the piece multiple times consequitively, it is raised an octave each time because of the ' mark. I can't add a , to the last note becu

6/4 rests

Hi all, I just enter a trio which has a number of time changes. When I have rests in 5/4 or 6/4 measures, like measures with whole rest or combos that equal a whole measure lilypond reads them as one large measure and make the dvi also that way: 6/4 r1| r1 | r1 | r1 | r1 | becomes 6/4 r1 r1 r

Re: 6/4 rests

r1 is a rest of length 1 (= 4/4), but you want 6/4. Try R4*6 for a single rest which fills the measure. On Thu, 1 Jan 2004, Aaron wrote: > Hi all, > I just enter a trio which has a number of time changes. When I have > rests in 5/4 or 6/4 measures, like measures with whole rest or combos > th

PDF bitmap problem

First of all, let me say how much I love Lilypond. I downloaded it a couple of days ago and immediately fell in love. Every other notation program I've tried has made me rip my hair out and go back to pencil and paper. I do have a couple of questions, though... When I run "lilypond", the resul

Re: 6/4 rests

I understood from the docs that R was used for multimeasures rests. 1 is a whole note so I guess you are right I would need to have a rest equal to 1+2 so this makes sense now. I will check if it works in the morning. 1:30 am here, Thanks Aaron ___ Lily
