Controlling the order of articulations and text markup

2014-12-13 Thread Richard Shann
I am having trouble controlling the stacking order of articulations and text. Sometimes in musical scores two ornaments are placed one above the other and I can't find documentation to say how the vertical order of the ornaments can be controlled. Sometimes I create ornaments using markup via \epsf

Hi Richard, I found the \tweak command more flexible to reach such placement ; e.g. : \version "2.18.2" { c'' -\tweak outside-staff-priority #-1000 ^Text -\tweak outside-staff-priority #0 ^\turn -\tweak outside-staff-priority #-100 ^\prall } HTH, Pierre 2014-12-13 9:39 GMT+01:00

3/4 time and whole notes

Hi, I'm certain this is online somewhere but I just can't find it. How do I tell Lilypond I want a whole note? \version "2.18.2" { \time 3/4 c1 c1 c1 c1 } These have a value of 4 quarters so that doesn't work. Thanks! Henry ___ lilypond-user

Maybe it is my musical knowledge that was lacking there :) I was looking for a way to write 'the right sized note to fill a bar' but I realize that specifying the duration absolutely makes the most sense. And in this case I guess it is a dotted half, not a whole note. Thanks! On Sat, 13 Dec 2014 6

Hi all this is a bit off-topic, as it's not closely related to LilyPond. I'm trying to imagine any possible way to avoid the boring part of typesetting, i.e. entering notes and durations. Do you know any application which can create music (in lilypond format) from a real person who solfeges a

All music in Carnatic Classical music is written in solfege. Not sure if this is an example of what you are talking about. Plus there is no specific standard, but rather a bunch of different conventions. And the ornamentations are left to the performer and not specifically written. Timing is handle
