I have a question: can I declare the alternating time signature on the

measure? :
You could use a parallel voice that switches the time signatures using
\repeat unfold and a suitable count.
Another option is to use a compound meter. The only catch is that you
will not get a bar line between the 4/4 and 5/4, as the compound meter
treats each measure as the sum 4+5/4.
See the following for examples of both approaches:
\version "2.19.82"
someMusic = \fixed c' {
| c2 d4 c f2 g4 f8 e d c
| g2 a4 g e8 f g a g2 e4
| f4 g a bg4 c' b c'2
}
\new Staff <<
{ \numericTimeSignature
\repeat unfold 3 { \time 4/4 s4*4 \time 5/4 s4*5 } }
{ \someMusic }
\new Staff { \compoundMeter #'((4 5 4)) \someMusic }

Re: Using SMuFL accidental glyphs
On this topic, the original query still stands. Would it be possible to use SMuFL glyphs in the Accidental glyph-name-list? Andrew ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: An interesting accidental glyph
Very amusing. But in all seriousness, what is this thing? I am unable to find any evidence for the existence of this symbol outside of Emmentaler. I cant find it in SMuFL, and that has hundreds of rare accidentals. My limited imagination finds it hard to understand how you can alter a pitch in two directions at once. Unless this is some sort of vibrato sign. But would any musicians know how to interpret it?

I have seen a similar problem over fonts with FF before though, it displays perfectly, then somewhere in a long printout gets itself in a mess. If, on the other hand, I explicitly download the PDF to my machine, then Evince Document Viewer 3.28.2 is called up and both display and printing work perfectly.

Polymetric(?) time signature
Hello Lilyponders!

\time 4/4
c4 c c c
\time 5/4
c c c c c
\time 4/4

\time 5/4
c c c c c
}
and the pattern goes on like that to the very end of piece.
I have a question: can I declare the alternating time signature on the
beginning of piece once so I don't have to declare it for every measure? :
{
\time 4/4 5/4%?
c4 c c c
c c c c c
c c c c
c c c c c
}
I could not find it anywhere in docs and snippets but I swear I saw it
somewhere...
Could you help me with this?
Thanks in advance
Robert

Re: Edition Engraver master vs refactor override branch: changing bound-details
Hi Stefano,
sorry for the delay. I've been away for several days.
I have to look into this deeper ... I guess it is related to the
grob-property-path 'bound-details.left.text'.
Hopefully I can solve this issue soon.
Best

Re: Using SMuFL accidental glyphs
Answering my own query, this may be useful for others searching the
archives in the future. This example uses the openlilylib
custom-music-fonts code to load Bravura, and this example shows how a SMuFL
glyph can be used as an accidental. Quite handy, even if I do so day myself.
[Obviously this wont compile unless you have openlilylib set up. It's
illustrative.]

Using SMuFL accidental glyphs
SMuFL has a large collection of accidental glyphs, some of which I need. The openlilylib custom-music-fonts snippet enables the use of SMuFL fonts and works pretty well for me. But I would like to add a SMuFL accidental to the Accidental.glyph-name-alist, for my locally customised note name set, and this is obviously not straightforward. Is it in fact possible at all? If not, is there a way to use a particular SMuFL accidental for a single note? Andrew ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
