Re: Arpeggio crossing multiple staves overlaps with previous note

[Andrew Bernard]

Hi Thomas

If you add

\override Arpeggio.padding = #6

before the upper arpeggios the spacing will improve. However, you will
notice that if you use d natural instead of d flat that the problem
disappears. I have no idea why lilypond is not taking notice of the
accidental to space the arpeggio correctly. So this is a workaround.

On a topic that may save you much grief, why are you using an exceptionally
old version of lilypond 2.12.13? It’s up to you, but people on the list are
unlikely to be able to support your queries with such an old version.
[Hasn’t this come up before?] Surely you can use at least the current
stable version 2.18.2.

For what it’s worth, this issue also shows in 2.19.42.

Hope this helps a little bit. Others will know the true answer!

Arpeggio crossing multiple staves overlaps with previous note

[Thomas Shaddox]

I've got a simple arpeggio crossing my two staves, and for some reason the
arpeggio symbol is overlapping the previous note. I have used crossing
arpeggios before without problems, but something about this one is
problematic.
I have tried various repositioning techniques described in the Lilypond
documentation, with no success. Any help is much appreciated!

Here's an image:

Here's my Lilypond example:

\version "2.12.3"
\include "english.ly"

global = {
  \key f \major
  \numericTimeSignature
  \time 4/4
}

right = \relative c'' {
  \global
  f4 f f8 g8
  4\arpeggio |
  1 |
}

left = \relative c {
  \global
  f16 df' af df f,16 df' af df ef,16 df' a df
  4\arpeggio |
  1 |
}

\score {
  \new PianoStaff <<
\set PianoStaff.connectArpeggios = ##t
\new Staff = "right" \with {
  midiInstrument = "acoustic grand"
} \right
\new Staff = "left" \with {
  midiInstrument = "acoustic grand"
} { \clef bass \left }
  >>
}

Re: Embedding LilyPond in iOS app?

[RonH]

But according to the LilyPond web site, this app was made with LilyPond:

http://etudeapp.com/

Doesn't that imply that it can be embedded in iOS?

I have two small comments to do. Paper size differ depending on the page,
there are at least three different sizes.

Also, Helvetica font is not embedded but it is standard (this is fine), but
NewBaskerbille-SC and NewBaskerbille-Roman are not embedded and they are
not standard. So, they get substituted, maybe by a different font in every
system.

Does it help if I write the last line explicitly as

\addlyrics { \repeat unfold 3 { c1*0 d1*0 e1*0 f1*0 } }

?

Since all lyrics happen at once, \addlyrics has no way to adjust the
timing.  Now to be honest I'm fuzzy why we don't even get a single lyric
but the rest can be explained by having set the default input duration
with s1*0 .

I prefer using <> when it does the job.

And you need to look twice to see the _other_ difference in your
example.  If you don't write c'4 explicitly when using s1*0, you'll get
into all kinds of trouble.  In fact, you can still get into all kinds of
trouble:

\version "2.19.40"
{
  <> \p \< \repeat unfold 3 {c' d' e' f'} <> \!
}
\addlyrics { \repeat unfold 3 { c d e f } }

{
  s1*0 \p \< \repeat unfold 3 {c'4 d' e' f'} s1*0 \!
}
\addlyrics { \repeat unfold 3 { c d e f } }


Can you figure out what's going wrong with the second example?

To be complete, spacers do work here if scaled properly, although
empty chords are more handy, imho

{
  s1*0 \p \< \repeat unfold 3 {c'4 d' e' f'} s1*0 \!
}

Re: invisible note for expressive marks

[Gianmaria Lari]

The spacer rest does not work but the empty chord does!

So here it is a working example that in my opinion can be very useful:

\version "2.19.40"
{
  <> \p \< \repeat unfold 3 {c' d' e' f'} <> \!
}

Thank you Abraham!
