(Semi)German chords (B <-> H) with normal slash chords?
Dear list, I'm working on a songbook for german kids. Although I personally don't like them, I want to use German chord names (B and H exchanged). I could use \germanChords or \semiGermanChords to achieve that, but that also changes the behavior of slash chords: B7 -> H7 <-- this is what I want E/G# -> E/gis <-- this is weird Maybe some developer thought, that E/gis is how it's done in Germany. I think it's rather uncommon and pretty ugly ;-) But personal tastes aside, is there a way to get the B<->H thing without changing the slash chords? Many thanks in advance, Best, Boris -- Dr. Boris Lau +49 174 9436758 http://www.borislau.de Im Ried 7a, 79249 Merzhausen, Germany
Re: Henle app
Any idea what they use for engraving? Given the features for changing staff sizes as well as individual note and fingerings, it's probably done on-the-fly...

Accessing timecode of notes or bars
Hi all,
I'm trying to provide id-values to noteheads or barlines for use with
the SVG output so I can access them using JavaScript. In the archive I
found the snipped below.
1. Is there a property that gives me a timecode-like value for a
notehead with a bar and beat number of a note?
2. I also tried to assign a string id to a BarLine, but that doesn't
appear in the svg. Is there a workaround for that?
Best, Boris
#(define (note-number grob)
(string-concatenate
(list
NoteHead/
(number-string
(ly:beam-score-count)
(ly:event-property (ly:grob-property grob 'cause)'pitch))
(number-string
\override NoteHead #'id = #note-number
\relative c' {
c8 d e f
}

Re: Accessing timecode of notes or bars
Sorry, there was an error in my posted snipped. Here is the correct version:
\version 2.16.2
#(define (note-number grob)
(string-concatenate
(list
NoteHead/
(number-string
(ly:pitch-semitones
(ly:event-property (ly:grob-property grob 'cause) 'pitch))
\relative c' {
\time 4/4
\override NoteHead #'id = #note-number
c d e
}
Please compile with lilypond -dbackend=svg test_id.ly
As expected, each notehead in the output is assigned with an id value,
e.g., NoteHead/0, where the number indicates the pitch.
Now I want to replace the pitch with its position in time expressed in
bars and beats. Is this possible?
Best, Boris

Otherwise I doubt you will get much help.

Bar lines at beginning of a line
Hello,
For writing leadsheets that consist of chords and rhythm, I'd like to
have single-line systems, which I achieve using this code:
\new DrumStaff \with{
drumStyleTable = #percussion-style
\override StaffSymbol #'line-count = #1
}
{
\override Staff.BarLine #'bar-size = #3
\override Score.RehearsalMark #'font-size = 1
...
}
However, I'd like to have the clef disappear, which I can do using
\remove Clef_engraver, but now I want to have a bar-line at the
beginning of each line.
I thought it would be quite natural if this would do the job:
\override Staff.BarLine #'break-visibility = #'#(#t #t #t)
but it doesn't. Do I have to use system start delimiters as a workaround
in this case? How can I get these for a Staffgroup that only consists of
ChordNames and the above DrumStaff?
Thanks for any help,
Boris

Again: Alignment of bars
Hello everyone, sorry that I'm bringing up this topic again. As several other people (so it seems), I want to typeset some leadsheets (melody + chord symbols) for Jazz, Funk and Pop music. So far I am quite happy with Lilypond for this purpose, the font is great, and the chord symbols are decent, except: What I'm really missing is the possibility of having all bars in a line having the same width. Combined with the \break command this would be sufficient to create a layout where all bar lines are aligned if the number of bars in a line is the same. I've read about the workarounds, like proportional mode, and single line staves, but these are not very convenient options. Wouldn't this be a nice add-on feature for the next version? I imagine that this would mean adding a trivial case to the more complex alignment algorithm for the conventional notation.
