Hi Kieren, I use bar checks so I'm sure that I don't have anything bleeding outside of a measure.

Re: Staff Spacing
Abraham,
While waiting on your reply, I experimented with the system-system-spacing
settings. I got it to work. I had originally tried that setting but must not
have been doing it right. This also moved all the systems on each page
closer together, reducing the number of pages, which is what I was trying to
do anyway.
\paper {
system-system-spacing =
#'((basic-distance . 8)
(minimum-distance . 6)

Re: Staff Spacing
Abraham, I'm beginning to agree with you concerning \break. I'm finding that manual line breaks need to be in one staff and one staff only in a system. It seems to behave better when the line breaks are in the top staff of a system. Lilypond has done some strange things when I put breaks in other staves, even if they are at the same point as the break in the top staff. I appreciate your help. I'm still in the Lilypond learning curve.

You might be able to isolate the problem by progressively commenting out
lines, sections.
Do you notice something odd in the output? This could help narrow it
down.
You can also google the error message. For example, I get this:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.lilypond.general/95341
(Idea for improving the program: it wouldn't be hard to insert the grob's
name into error messages of this sort. That would be very helpful.)
--David
Hi David,
I've been trying to comment out sections to isolate. I am a programer / sys
admin by trade. Debugging is a way of life for me. :)
Unfortunately, Lilypond does not give a line number or any indication of
where or what is throwing the error.
One thing that I've found is than I an insert a \break and get the messages
to stop.
The 1st three verses of the song are arranged like this. (Not actual score
code, just a structure example.)
\repeat volta 3 {
\repeat volta 2 {
c d e f }
\alternative {
{ a b c d }
{ d c b a }
}
c d e f g a b c
}
The strange thing is that if I code it this way, the errors go away.
\repeat volta 3 {
\repeat volta 2 {
c d e f }
\alternative {
{ a b c d \break }
{ d c b a }
}
c d e f g a b c
}
The basic structure of the piece is the \repeat volta 2 { ... }
\alternative { { a b .. } { a b ..} } ... some more music ...
It starts with three verses which is why I have the \repeat 3 { } section
above, then the volta 2 structure is used for each succeeding verse.
Overall layout is 3 verses, interlude, verse, verse, interlude, final
verse. All of this is in an SATB score. This is why I'm having trouble
isolating the problem.
I appreciate all suggestions.

How to get lyrics to skip measures?
I'm having a little trouble figuring out how to do this. I have a score
where verse 1 is sung then there is a whistling interlude then verse two is
sung.
I think that I need to somehow include spacers to skip over the whistle
part but I'm getting errors when I try that.
Here is a short sample code. Would someone give me a clue how to get the
lyrics to skip the Whistle part?
This comes up often in our vocal music. Often there is an interlude before
the next verse is sung.
\version 2.18.2
\language english
melodyVerseOne = {
\new Staff \relative c'' {
\set Staff.vocalName = Women
\set Staff.shortVocalName = W
\new Voice = Women {
\time 2/4
\key c \major
c^Verse 1 d e f | \break
%% Lyrics to skip this section
g^Whistle a b c | \break
%% Verse two lyrics start here
c,^Verse 2 d e f
}
}
}
verseOneLyrics = \lyricmode {
La la la la
}
verseTwoLyrics = \lyricmode {
Do re me fa
}
\score {
\melodyVerseOne
\new Lyrics \lyricsto Women {
\verseOneLyrics
%% Need to skip the Whistle part

}
}

Thanks Kieren. That's what I tried in the 1st place but the actual musical
passage is not as simple as my example, so using \skip is very unwieldy.
It's a whole verse.
I did figure it out. I had to create a new voice context for the part that
is to be whistled. I can then just set the lyrics to the Women voice
context and the lyrics automatically skip the Whistle section.
Here's a snippet of the actual code. It's not complete so it won't compile.
I'm beginning to understand contexts, finally!!!
womenMusic = {
%% There's other music and code here.
g8 a bf a | a4 a8 bf | c4 c | bf bf8 r | \break
g8 a bf a | a4 a8 bf | c4 c | g4 r | \bar || \break
%% This creates the new voice context that will be skipped by setting
%% the women's lyrics to the Women voice context.
\new Voice = Whistle {
g8\mark All whistle a bf g | a4 a8 bf | c4 c | bf bf8 r8 | \break
g8 a bf g | a4 a8 bf | c4 d | g, r | \bar || \break
}
%% This reverts back to the original context.
\oneVoice
%% And the rest of the piece follows.
\key g \major
g8^Women a b g | a4 a8 b | c4 c | b bf8 r8 | \break
%% The rest of the music is here.
}
}
}
Now my score block is:
\score {
\new ChoirStaff
\womenMusic
\new Lyrics
\lyricsto Women {
\set stanza = #1.
\womenLyricOneTwo % The same lyrics are used for V 1 2.
\set stanza = #2.
\womenLyricOneTwo
}
\menMusic
\new Lyrics \lyricsto Men {
\set stanza = #2.
\menLyricTwo
}
}

I will always want the title printed starting on page 2 so I didn't want to

Re: Page Headers
I figured it out. I went into the ly/titling-init.ly file and changed this line \on-the-fly #not-part-first-page \fromproperty #'header:instrument to this line \on-the-fly #not-part-first-page \fromproperty #'header:title in both the oddHeaderMarkup variable and the evenHeaderMarkup variable.

Re: Staff error
Hey Phil,
That's what I did. l had tried that once before but without any luck. The
score is a bit complex. Starts off with 4 part SATB then interlude then S
S1 A then T T1 B then interlude then finishes in SATB.
I had to work with each part to get it all lined up properly but finally
got it done. The only thing that I have to finish is the guitar chords.

Chris,
I think this would work better if you gave each musician their full
measure rests when they are not singing/playing and then let Lily remove
them when they are not needed. Something like:
\score {
\new Staff { \relative c'' { R1 R1 c4 d e f f e d c R1 R1 } }
\new ChoirStaff
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { c4 d e f f e d c \break R1 R1 \break c4 d e f f e d c }
}
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { g4 a b c c b a g R1 R1 g4 a b c c b a g }
}
\layout {
\context {
\Staff \RemoveEmptyStaves
\override VerticalAxisGroup.remove-first = ##t}
}
}

Subject: Staff error
I'm trying to write a choral score that has parts, then an interlude, then
more parts, etc.
When I code it like the following, I get what I'm looking for.
\version 2.18.2
\language english
% Verse 1
\new ChoirStaff
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { c d e f }
}
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { g a b c }
}
% Interlude
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { c d e f }
}
% Verse 2
\new ChoirStaff
\new Staff {
\relative c { \clef bass d e f g }
}
\new Staff {
\relative c { \clef bass a b c d }
}
When I enclose the code in a \score block, I get an unexpected \new error
on
line 17. What am I missing?
\version 2.18.2
\language english
\score {
% Verse 1
\new ChoirStaff
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { c d e f }
}
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { g a b c }
}
% Interlude
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { c d e f }
}
% Verse 2
\new ChoirStaff
\new Staff {
\relative c { \clef bass d e f g }
}
\new Staff {
\relative c { \clef bass a b c d }
}
}
Thanks,

Single Staff Spacing
I'm new to Lilypond. I have a simple score that is short. It's a single
staff score. I'm trying to increase the spacing between staves but nothing
I try is working. How do I increase the space between the staves?
A short example is:
\version 2.18.2
\new Staff {
\relative c'' {
\key g \major
\time 3/4
\autoBeamOff
\partial 4
c8 d | e2.~ | e2 g,8 b | d4 d b | a8( g)~ g2~ | \break
g4 e'8 e4 e8 | d2.~| d8 d, a'4 a | g2.~ | g8 c c4 d | e2.~ |
}
}
Thank,
Chris Trahan

Single Staff Spacing
Thanks to David Nalesnik and Jim Long for helping. I figured that the spacing had to go in the \paper section but I couldn't figure out what parameters to adjust. Chris ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Footnote Question
Hi, I would like to put a revision date at the bottom right of the 1st page on the same line with the copyright notice. The only two header fields that I see in the manual are tagline and copyright. Is there a way that I can do this? I like to have a revision date as we're working on a score so that everyone in the group knows that they're looking at the correct version. Thanks, Chris Trahan ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Samuel,
Where would I copy it from and where would I put it?
Thanks,
Chris
Sorry, I should have been more specific.
The default values come from titling-init.ly, in my copy (2.18.2) this is
what I find:
oddFooterMarkup = \markup {
\column {
\fill-line {
%% Copyright header field only on first page in each bookpart.
\on-the-fly #part-first-page \fromproperty #'header:copyright
}
\fill-line {
%% Tagline header field only on last page in the book.
\on-the-fly #last-page \fromproperty #'header:tagline
}
}
}
So, to achieve what you were describing I would put the following code in
the \paper block:
oddFooterMarkup = \markup {
\column {
\fill-line { \on-the-fly #part-first-page \fromproperty
#'header:copyright }
\fill-line { \on-the-fly #part-first-page \fromproperty
#'header:revisiondate }
\fill-line { \on-the-fly #last-page \fromproperty #'header:tagline }
}
}
Then, in the \header block, I would have to define the revisiondate
variable:
revisiondate = 6 August 2014
HTH, Samuel.
Thanks Samuel. I'll try that.

Samuel,
I found that this also works. I was able to put all three parts, left,
center, and right on one fill-line.
oddFooterMarkup = \markup {
\column {
\fill-line {
%% Copyright header field only on first page in each bookpart.
\on-the-fly #part-first-page \fromproperty #'header:copyright
\fromproperty #'header:revisiondate
}
\fill-line {
%% Tagline header field only on last page in the book.
\on-the-fly #last-page \fromproperty #'header:tagline
}
}
}
I like this because I'll often use the revision date. It's nice to have it
as a header field. I'll just have to remember to check it when there's an
update to LilyPond.

Increasing Space Between Arranger and 1st Staff
How can I increase the space between the arranger field and the 1st staff? My score is using a ChoirStaff group. I've tried putting score-markup-spacing and/or markup-system-spacing in the \paper section but nothings working. I've been reading the manuals and am at a loss on how to do this.
