RE: Horizontal note spacing

[Andrew Bernard]

Hi Abraham,

 

What a great help. I have been wanting this for a very long time. Overriding

 

Score.NoteSpacing.knee-spacing-correction

 

allows the kneed beamed grace notes to be evenly spaced, with trial and error 
for the right number.

 

Very much appreciated.

 

This is almost worth an LSR snippet, don’t you think? It is pretty hard to 
figure this out even if you pore through the reference manuals for months, if 
you don’t know what you are looking for.

 

 

Andrew

At least it hasn't crashed yet.

This is only partly our doc build process I think.  Of course I don't
really know just how slow your computer actually is.  I think a main
holdup may be Guilev2, likely partly due to our current code base not
being able to work with precompiled .go files, and partly because the
Guile developers are of the opinion that the performance of interpreted
code does not matter since "everything should be compiled anyway".
Which we of course cannot do for embedded Scheme that is encountered
ad-hoc in the files.

The performance problem will likely be quite resilient, and once
dependable numbers for comparison have been collected, it might make
sense to contact the Guile developer list with the findings and ask for
help finding remedies.

The tricky thing will be engaging them to do provide more meaningful
help than "you must be doing it all wrong".

We are practised in pounding the table demanding minimal examples and
reproducible recipes: of course providing such to the Guile developers
will be helpful as well, and for that a dependable Lilydev might be a
good anchoring point for such a recipe.

Many thanks for all the links and files.

Currently I'm waiting for a doc-build to get finished.
In the 5th hour now, this is getting insane ...

I'll report back after testings, likely not before tomorrow evening, though.

I suggest you do the following:

1)
"fork" the openlilylib/snippets repository (in the Github web interface)
and make sure your local repository points to your clone

2)
Create a new branch for your code

3)
Find a suitable directory for your code

4)
Copy your code in there, look in other snippets about the header fields etc.

5)
Create one definitions.ily and one example.ly file. Including multiple
subfiles is OK.

6)
Create a Pull request.

I think this is the fastest way to actually reach a point where we can
discuss any details about updating your code.

Best wishes
Urs

Adding Openlilylib snippets

[ET de Boone]

Hi everybody,

Let me first say I love lilypond!

I got into it thanks to LaTeX and musicTeX, wanting to write drumscores for 
pipebands. Luckily, quite some work was done already by Sven and a french guy. 
All I've been doing was a little bit of tweaking. My repo can be found at 
https://github.com/kastdeur/lilydrum

If somebody could give me some pointers for modifying/correcting the code to 
add it to openlilylib I would gladly submit it. 

Cheers,

I have to apologize. I was going off of memory and (sigh) remembered wrong.
I meant to point you at the NoteSpacing grob (
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/internals/notespacing). This
grob controls the optical corrections that are applied in situations like
kneed beams, opposing stems, etc. I don't have a good answer for your
search, but you might be able to tailor those properties to your needs by
either increasing or decreasing their values (and in case you're wondering,
setting the numeric ones to zero and the boolean one to #f makes the output
even worse, so the values should probably be increased, if anything).

I can't tell you the details (because I don't fully understand how they are
implemented, but "springs and rods" refers to how LilyPond spaces things.
Certain dimensions behave more like a spring and can expand or contract
(like the space between notes or between staves). Others are relatively
fixed in length like a inextensible rod (e.g., the space before/after
barlines, accidentals, etc.). Does that make more sense, at least what it's
means in theory? Sorry I can't be of more help than that.

Best,
Abraham

"Lots of complex Scheme-processing" is not helpful since it increases
the likelihood of version incompatibilities outside of convert-ly's
reach, and of Guile version problems not related to the migration.

The problem area we are dealing with are large complex scores, but
written in a boring manner and style (regarding the LilyPond source),
preferably not even involving significant amounts of Scheme.

Not huge and maybe not for the latest dev version, but you are more 
than welcome to use any of (and others):

http://turkos.aspodata.se/git/musik/CamilleSaintSa%C3%ABns/oratorio_de_noel/
http://turkos.aspodata.se/git/musik/GabrielFaur%C3%A9/Op48_Requiem/
http://turkos.aspodata.se/git/musik/WAMozart/requiem/

Result is in http://turkos.aspodata.se/choir/osthammar/

Ehh, you might need to clone the repo to make the makefile to work
git clone git://turkos.aspodata.se/musik.git since I use a somewhat 
eigenversion of lilypond-book. Maybe its easier for me to test your
guilev2-version of lilypond instead if you point to a repo to clone.

Re: [Spam] request for help: huge score

[Rutger Hofman]

You can check if my typeset of Berg's Adagio (Kammerkonzert) works. It 
is here: http://imslp.org/wiki/Kammerkonzert_(Berg,_Alban) then under 
the list of parts, there is a zip with the source, with a Makefile to 
build score and all parts (make -j  should work). (This is 
also a nice test if I really bundled everything :-) ) I think 2.19.48 or so.


If you like, I can also submit my ongoing work on the Rondo from the 
same piece. It has a solo piano, and Berg uses all the typesetting 
tricks in the book. Even so, it is *far* from finished, but it compiles 
for me.

Hidden Dynamics staves taking up vertical space

[kmg]

I'm sorry, I can't figure out MWE for this, because it seems specific for
my score now. I tried replicating it by having empty dynamics/piano
material, but in the new score it doesn't seem to generate extra space...
So first, the issue: by adding two dynamics contexts (one between the piano
staffs, one below, for pedaling), the hidden staffs seem to generate extra
vertical space. First page: http://i.imgur.com/goOiYCW.png ; Second page:
http://i.imgur.com/KDX4IQF.png . When I disable both dynamics lines, it
looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/0QSUDE8.png . Note how just having
dynamics makes the gap betweeen  trumpet so huge.. one not really good
workaround I found is to use \override
VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-relatedstaff-spacing.padding = #-0.2 on the
middle dynamics, but it applies to the whole score, can't be set
temporarily, and dynamics are not spaced correctly later on. So, here is
the code for those two pages (again sorry, couldn't replicate it by having
piano staff+dynamics with multi rests; also uncomment %\override
VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-relatedstaff-spacing.padding = #-0.2 to see the
'workaround' difference).

request for help: huge score

[Thomas Morley]

Hi all,

currently there's some ongoing heavy work to make LilyPond work with guilev2.

I'd like to test the current state with a huge score, something like
an entire sinfony or the like.
I don't have a huge score of this kind at hand.
May I ask if somebody could send me one?
It should compile with a recent devel-version to ensure comparabilty.

A huge score may be too much for an attachment on the list.
Please try zipped or a private mail.

Thanks,
  Harm

I suppose this problem arises since the repeat sign is moreso part of the
staff than a text colon.

you could scale the entire staff to the desired size and avoid fiddling
with the font.

I also removed two levels of nesting unnecessary for this demo, the  {
\relative a' { } }

Nice work on your site.  Any chance of seeing Dusty Miller up there?


\version "2.14.2"

#(set-global-staff-size 60)

\score {
\new ChordNames \with {
\override BarLine #'bar-extent = #'(-1 . 1)
\override ChordName #'extra-offset = #'(0 . -1)
\consists "Bar_engraver"
}
\chordmode {
\partial 4  s4
\repeat volta 2 { a1 g c a  }
}
}
