Dynamics offset suddenly changes

2019-03-24 Thread Andrew Bernard
I have a score with a lot of dynamics, a string quartet. There is more or less a continuum of dynamics and hairpins for each instrument. I am not using a dynamics context as the complexity of the music and rhythms makes it very tedious to figure out all the spacer rests that would be need. It's mor

Anybody? I have tried experimenting with large values of \override DynamicLineSpanner.staff-padding to no avail. I am stumped. Is it a bug? Andrew On Sun, 24 Mar 2019 at 20:48, Andrew Bernard wrote: > I have a score with a lot of dynamics, a string quartet. There is more or > less a continuum

Hi Aaron, Thanks you. But the hairpins in question in my code all end on dynamics such as p or f, and were working fine up until a couple of days ago. I can't see what has changed, except the quartey score is now 110 pages. I am very sorry I cannot stimulate this in a small MWE. I am using 2.19.8

Hi Harm, I am critically aware of the need to provide MWE's. I spent all yesterday trying to write one, and all works fine. It's only in the context of my large score that it shows up. What's more, it only just started happening, and all used to be fine. I raised the post to see if anybody has ha

Hi Aaron, Thank you for looking into this. As mentioned in my original post, I am not using a Dynamics context as this New Complexity score is very, very complex rhythmically, and it would tale a month to go back and figure out all the spacer rests to use a dynamics context. I'd rather not do that

Hi Harm, My issue can't be related to stopping and starting staves, as that does not occur in my score. But it has a hint of being somehow related. Andrew On Tue, 26 Mar 2019 at 07:20, Thomas Morley wrote: > > A minimal triggering the problem (\break\stopStaff \startStaff needed) > and showin

Hi Aaron, The pink arrow lines - how does lilypond work out this distance? It seems to be that that is jumping around. Can you help me understand that? Andrew On Tue, 26 Mar 2019 at 08:18, Aaron Hill wrote: > > > Consider the following: > > > \version "2.19.82" > \paper { indent = 0 line

Hi All, Thanks to Aaron's wonderful hairpin colouring function I have been able to really focus in on the hairpin behaviour. I found the issue with my score. I am somewhat dumbstruck by this. There is a call as follows at one and only point point in the score: \alterBroken Y-offset #'(0 4) Hairp

Hi David, What I mean is that I thought alterBroken just affected the single shot hairpin (wrong). In my score I have about 200 pages where there are hairpins ending on dynamics on the next page, and after the erroneous call to \alterBroken to adjust Y-offset, only some hairpins 80 pages or so awa
