convert-ly

2016-06-17 Thread Ralph Palmer 
Greetings -

I'm running LilyPond 2.19.43 under Win7.

Does anyone have a command-line command that will run convert-ly on all .ly
and .ily files, including subfolders? I used to have a command that worked,
but I've lost it.

Thanks for your help,

Ralph

Yes, this works very nicely in my original score.  Thank you, Simon and

Including a \lyricto around both?  The problem is that then a \skip 1 is
only "equal" to one lyric when the lyrics all have length 1 as well
(either giving the first lyric an explicit 1, or having the preceding
entered note duration happen to be 1).

That's not all that easy to get right and explain.  Maybe we need to
figure out a different construct then.

The only reliable solution I can think of right now is having all 
lyrics contexts start at the beginning, and skipping some time manually. 


I’m working on the fourth example from 
 
now. It works if done like this:


%%
\version "2.19.42"
\score {
  <<
\new Staff {
  \new Voice = "melody" {
\relative {
  a'4 a a a
  \repeat volta 2 { b4 b b b }
}
  }
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "melody" {
  Not re -- peat -- ed.
  The first time words.
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "melody" {
  \repeat unfold 4 \skip 1
  Se -- cond time words.
}
  >>
}
%

It would be very nice to just do this:


\version "2.19.42"
\score {
  <<
\new Staff {
  \new Voice = "melody" {
\relative {
  a'4 a a a
  \repeat volta 2 { b4 b b b }
}
  }
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "melody" {
  Not re -- peat -- ed.
  The first time words.
}
{
  \skip 1
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto "melody" {
Se -- cond time words.
  }
}
  >>
}
%%%

but by a known issue the \lyricsto doesn’t catch the note at the 
timestep when it’s issued.

I don't even know what you are trying to achieve by nesting Lyrics (with
associated Voice, to boot) inside of \lyricsto.

\lyricsto synchronizes its context to the associated voice.  Now here
its context contains of _parallel_ music, so the synchronization is
... interesting.

All of your lyrics have a default duration of the last entered duration,
which is 2. (the last preceding duration).

So in the first step, we are synchronizing two "a2." notes.

Now the inner Lyrics are synchronized separately, so with the next note,
both "b2." and "\skip 1" are emitted.  So the next event in that common
stream is after the "b2." and is the "c2." in the lower voice.  Which
means that the next event is the "c2." in the upper voice.  The upper
voice is now finished, so only the lower voice now needs to be tagged
off.  That's a single "d2." and then everything is over.

This was somewhat straightforward to pick apart.  However, this nested
construct has a lot more potential for weirdness, and adding more
material here is likely to lead to stranger results.

Changing the \skip 1 to \skip 2. presumably leads to the result you
think you should see, with both c on top of each other.  Changing it to
2 puts the top c before the bottom one.

Of course the solution is _not_ to put simultaneous music under the
control of \lyricsto, or the relation of "simultaneousness" will have an
effect _before_ \lyricsto is applied for making the combined lyrics
match the melody.

2016-06-17 Thread Edward Usher 
Ah, looks I misappropriated code that was intended for multiple verses.  So
my revised question would be about

%%%
\version "2.18.2"
\score {
  <<
\new Staff {
  \new Voice = "melody" {
\time 3/4
\repeat volta 2 {
  c'4 c'4 c'4 | c'4 c'4 c'4 | c'2. |

  <<
{ a \skip 1 c }
\new Lyrics {
  \set associatedVoice = "melody"
  a b c d
}
  >>

%%%

which is based on the fourth and fifth examples at

Well, I can’t quite describe the internal proceedings that lead to this 
indeed unexpected result. But your input code is very odd for a start, 
and the following standard way works as expected:



\version "2.18.2"
\score {
  <<
\new Voice = "melody" {
  \time 3/4
  c'4 c'4 c'4 | c'4 c'4 c'4 | c'2. |
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "melody" {
  a \skip 1 c
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "melody" {
  a b c d
}
  >>
}
%%%

You’d have to give us more context on why you chose this particular 
nesting of expressions.

Hi Graham

I do use %{ comments blocks, but typically only when testing new code. It's
much .. much faster to highlight a block and delete it. The alternative is
sectioning out a block... and then another etc... etc... etc... Granted the
time difference is minimal, but can add up in a large score especially when
narrowing an error down, and after all time is precious (to me anyway).
Also, my way tends to appeal greatly to the circumstance which is usually
great frustration. Somehow ... it just makes me happy :)

Context collision

2016-06-17 Thread Frédéric Bron 
Dear all,

The attached score show a context collision.

In an orchestra score, I like to have the bar numbers at the top left
and bottom left of each system. Also, I like to gather all textual
informations at the top. For this, I defined 2 new contexts :TextLine
and BarNumberLine.
Problem: text scripts collide with notes.
In the attached minimum example, I have left only 1 instrument. You
can see that as soon as there is a bar number at the beginning of the
line, the text scripts overlap with the notes.

If I remove the BarNumberLine, the text scripts are OK.

What do I do wrong?

Kind regards,

Frédéric

It’s intentional that you can normally only change global behaviour, to 
ensure a consistent spacing. The only proper possibility (apart from 
adding invisible objects, which would be really nasty and hard to
