Re: Defining custom symbols

Hi Robert, Hmm. I have played around with this a bit. I think if you are using safe mode of necessity then you simply can't use lilypond for this use case. Sooner or later you have to mix Lilypond and Scheme, and it is forbidden in safe mode. Transforming the code for the cut from the repo in

Re: Defining custom symbols

Hi Robert, I myself have never used safe mode, but according to the NR: It is also not possible to import LilyPond variables into Scheme while in safe mode. Therefore the present code will not work as written. I'll take a look at it. Andrew On 16 April 2018 at 06:48, Robert Hickman

These symbols do not work in safe mode. On 15 April 2018 at 17:32, Thomas Morley wrote: > 2018-04-15 18:22 GMT+02:00 Robert Hickman : > > ok, the latest compiled version seems to be 2.19.80 > > 2.19.81 > >

Re: Defining custom symbols

Strongly recommend using 2.19.81, especially if I am going to help you out extending this symbol code library. The wording of unstable on the website is open source over modesty, a conventional trope. The latest releases are very stable, and I bang away at them all day on very very complex scores

Hi Robert, Not sure what you want re size but lilypond -dcrop will make a cropped image. Andrew On 16 April 2018 at 01:20, Robert Hickman wrote: > I'm not setting the size to "quarto", I'm asking basically how to disable > fixed page sizing. I want the output to be

Re: Defining custom symbols

I'm not setting the size to "quarto", I'm asking basically how to disable fixed page sizing. I want the output to be like the attached image, zero white-space. I made this by cropping the image in gimp, doing that for every one would be a nightmare. \version "2.18.2" \include "larsen-symbols.ily"

Re: Defining custom symbols

I'm trying to set the page size so that it automatically matches the size of the staff with zero margins. Looking at the documentation on this shows the following command, but I cannot see how to set it to scale 'as big or small as needed'. The section on automatic scaling isn't clear as this

Re: numeric time signature (was Defining custom symbols)

Hello again, I've just downloaded the symbol repo and have been experimenting. I Noticed that the time signature set in the file is not reflected in the output (using the example from the repo). It displays common time 'C' instead of 2/4. Adding \numericTimeSignature causes it to create a second

Yes that looks good thanks. I asked about the font because I asked Grey if he was aware of symbols for lillypond. He handn't heard of LP but mentioned the font and asked if it was compatible. On 15 April 2018 at 11:20, Andrew Bernard wrote: > Hi Robert, > > I cloned

Hi Robert, I cloned the git repository and compiled the Larsen symbols. I all works beautifully with the current highest revision of lilypond 2.19.81, even though the code is somewhat old. Here's the result of the test code attached as an image. The code fr this is not hard to understand:

Re: Defining custom symbols

Hi Robert, Using a font is not how this is done in lilypond. It's a matter of defining new symbols that can be used by the engraver modules for the notes, like articulations and so on. This is fairly advanced to build from scratch, but you can just use the results of the work I pointed to as a

Re: Defining custom symbols

Yes that's what I was looking for, thanks. I've also found that Grey has published a font with his symbols, how does one approach integrating fonts? Chris Throup, who is linked to from the page Andrew shared linked to, suggests this is difficult to do. On 15 April 2018 at 06:22, Andrew

I'm currently using ABC notation for all of the score examples on my website and converting it to notation using abcm2ps. I have run into a limitation with it and need something more flexible. However I still wish to use a textual notation and do not want to hand edit images as this would make
