It looks as if the installation program failed to install all necessary packages. Usually it helps to just rerun setup.exe. Especially, you should make sure that the package called libguile12 is being installed (it should be selected automatically). Also, I'm surprised that you have version

chords in piano staff

Hi! I'm trying to have a piano staff with the chords written between the two staves. I've tried many combination but with no result: in a piano staff or a grand staff the chords appear below the lower staff. The only way has been to create a staff group, but in this case I lost the brace at the

By default, a PianoStaff context cannot contain a ChordNames context, but that's easy to modify. Just add (untested) \layout{ \context{ \PianoStaff \accepts ChordNames } } /Mats [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi! I'm trying to have a piano staff with the chords written between the two staves.

Hi Mats, thank you, your solution works, even if now I have a very large distance between the two staves. How can I come back to the original distance of the piano staff? Thanks Libero Mureddu \version 2.4.5 md = {c'4 c' c' c'} ms = {c4 c c c} harmonies = \chordmode { c4:m f:min7 g:maj

Dynamics too far below, Piano+song based Template

2005-04-08 Thread dax2
Dear Friends, I have so far only done 5 or 6 pieces in Lilypond notation. I am very fond of the results. In my new project there is a challenge: Ped-marks come too far below the lower staff, if I use a separate dynamic-Staff. I missed templates for piano-quartet/trio. I used

Hello everyboby. I'm starting using lilypond. The example here in my e-mail has three different scores. The only thing that I want is to be able to print each score in a different page. How can I perform the break between then? Thank you very much, Helder == EXAMPLE == \version 2.4.0 \header {

transpose

2005-04-08 Thread Robert Jamison
I have a number of pieces written in fakebook style that I want to transpose to other keys. I know the command \transpose c g should move things up a 5th (or maybe down a 4th). I read the manual page on transpose, but I cannot figure out from that where to insist the command. Everything I've

Thanks for making such a great product. I love using Lilypond. I am currently working on an applescript app for Mac OS X that will allow a .ly file to be dragged to a Lilypond icon to create the PDF score without using the command line. My hopes is that it will help make Lilypond more accesible
