Grace note displayed exactly on beat (and not before)
Hello List, I know about the \grace, \appoggiatura, \acciaccatura and \afterGrace commands which can be used in order to create grace notes. However, none of these would put a grace note exactly on the beat: they would either put it just after the `main' note (in the case of \afterGrace) or just before it (in all other cases). I was wondering how I would be able to put the grace note just on the beat. To illustrate the idea, I attach an example (scanned from a piano score). This is not the actual scenario that I wish to typeset, but it illustrates my need quite clearly (I need to typeset a short passage in an orchestral score for one of the instruments, where the passage itself should start at the same time as the other instruments start to play).

Multiple-staff ossia
Dear List, is there a way to create a multiple-staff ossia? I need to expand a divisi section in a string part score that lasts a couple of bars only. The basic idea would be to have a StaffGroup that starts in the middle of the page (at the point where the divisi section begins) and which end at the end of the divisi section. I tried the same solution that works for single-stave ossias as explained in the Documentation, but unfortunately that doesn't work (the main problem is that the bracket starts at the beginning of the line and also it was not possible to assign instrumentName and/or shordInstrumentName values to the ossia staves created that way).

Hi,
thanks a lot, this works! Out of curiosity, could you or somebody on the list
explain to me why this works? It is a bit weird to me, as I also tried to have
the variable without the \layout in it (so that it was myLayout = \context {

I'm just surprised that this solution (which reads at the end \layout { \layout

Rodolfo A few comments (although I've never seen Frescobaldi before, so I'm not sure whether the problems come from the software itself or the port): - The first letter of the executable is not capitalized (it says 'frescobaldi' instead of 'Frescobaldi'), which is not very common with Mac software (unless they start with 'i'). Not a bug, though. - Hitting the 'Engrave' button I get the following in the log window: Starting lilypond [test01.ly]... Could not start lilypond. Please check path and permissions. - In Preferences/LilyPond Preferences one can't set the LilyPond include path, as the file open dialog won't let the user open the contents of the LilyPond application bundle and the input field can't be edited by typing into the list of LilyPond include paths. - If one sets the appropriate path in the frescobaldi.plist file (for me, this would be /Applications/LilyPond/LilyPond.app/bin), after running frescobaldi, it would revert my modification to /Applications/LilyPond. - The Preference File 'frescobaldi.plist' should be called 'org.frescobaldi.plist' to meet Apple's naming conventions. The weird thing is that the bin library of LilyPond is included in my user path (so I can run LilyPond in Terminal directly without needing to specify the folder where it is located), so I don't really understand why Frescobaldi wouldn't find the executables...

I've attached a new file that addresses some of the issues you identify above: --) It uses axis-group::width to box accidentals Beautiful! Now there's really no need for the extra padding properties.

Whenever you have a spanner that somehow occupies horizontal space at its bounds, you can create stub grobs that approximate this space. This technique also works for items that, for whatever reason, have heights that are difficult to approximate (see SpanBarStub and StemStub, for example). This works great for spacing on the left side. It wasn't working on the right, so I added 'extender-length in (plus a slight correction accounting for arrow-length, etc., which should be fairly easy to calculate). Now it will push everything forward nicely. One thing I've noticed, though, is that the line will not cross a bar line. If I increase the length of the extender, the bar line is simply pushed to the right. I figured out one way around this--namely, setting the X-extent of the bar line to (+inf.0 . -inf.0), which is what I do in the attached file. Of course this has other consequences.

I can't explain the difference in behavior, but with 2.14.2 you need to put
\frameEnd and \frameStart after the note. So, the following can be
substituted into the file attached earlier in this thread:

Separating pitch and rhythm
Dear List,
is there an effective way to separate the pitches and the rhythms in a voice?
I'm thinking about something like defining a variable consisting only of
rhythms:
Rhythm = {
\time 4/4
4 4 4. 8
8 8 4 4 8 8
2 4 8 8 ...
}
and then apply this to different sequences of pitches:
Seq1 = {
\clef treble
c d e f
g a g f e d
c e g c ...
}
Seq2 = {
\clef bass
c b a g
f e f g a b
c g e c ...
}
(etc.)
The purpose is: I'm engraving a long, homophonic section in an orchestral
piece, where cca. 30 instruments play the same rhythms, but with different
pitches.
Thanks for any ideas,

al niente hairpin symbol
Dear List,
I noticed that when a glissando with a decrescendo hairpin attached to it is
broken into multiple lines, the 'al niente' sign is printed just before the
break. This is rather confusing, as one might think that the end-note of the
glissando, which appears in the next line, is actually a note that has to be
played (which, of course, is not true; as the decrescendo ends with al niente,
that sound must be silent, it just shows where the glissando should end).
Is there any workaround for this? Currently I'm just putting a flageolet sign
below the note in the second line, but that's not very nice. Obviously, the
best would be if the hairpin would break with the glissando, in which case it
could end on the very first note of the second line.
Here's a very short example:
\relative c' {
\override Glissando #'breakable = ##t
\override Hairpin #'circled-tip = ##t
c1\ \glissando \break c'\!
}

Frenched score with glissandi
Dear List,
I'd like to forcefully remove a staff from an orchestral score at a given
point. Here's the scenario:
There are 6 violas playing in 2 staves (Vle 1-3 in the first and Vle 4-6 in the
second). From some point, all the violas play the same material, so I'd like to
remove one of the staves to avoid duplications. However, I can't find out how
to achieve this. I enabled 'frenched spacing' with \RemoveEmptyStaves, but it
seems that the hidden notes that end the glissandi (created with \hideNotes)
will keep the staff 'alive', as in the attached example.

the orchestra, however, there's a dummy timeline and a dummy first page

Lines connecting notes (glissandi)
Hello list,
I'm investigating how one could implement a glissando. So far, I've found three
solutions:
- \glissando itself
- \makeClusters with a single note instead of a chord
- \markup (with \beam, \path or \postscript)
while \glissando is a simple solution, it gives a very narrow line -- which I
didn't find how I could make thicker -- and there's absolutely no control over
the shape of the line (so one can't make a non-linear glissando with it).
\makeClusters solves this last question, however, the line -- even if one uses
a single note, e.g. \makeClusters { d4 e d' } -- would be very thick, and I
didn't find a way to make it narrower (to make my point clear, ideally I'd need
a line which has the exact height of a filled notehead). Of course, I could do
whatever I wanted with markup graphics, however, if possible, I'd like to solve
this without markups.
Thanks for the help,
Ádám Siska

Dear Eluze,
thank you for your reply. Attached please find two PNGs. The

(with the note head coming a bit after the dashed barline) and
'what_i_need.png' would be the solution that I'm looking for (with the

I don't know if it's of much use for your purposes, but you can use a
notehead glyph as a rehearsal mark, which positions it directly on the
barline:
\relative c' {
d4 d d d
\once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'extra-offset = #'(0 . -5.9)
\mark\markup\normalsize { \musicglyph #noteheads.s2 } d
}
Dear Nick,
thanks for this! Although in terms of musical-logic it is not a solution, but
it looks exactly like what I need.
Thanks,
Ádám
Dear Nick,
I just realized that the solution is not as good as it seemed to be. It seems
that if I use a markup, the distance between subsequent crotchets won't be the
same, as the first crotchet of the measure (the one that is represented by the
markup) will be placed a little more left than it should be. So I need a
solution where the actual bar lines would move 'a bit to the right' in order to
be in sync with the first notehead in the measure.
Thanks,
Ádám

You can customize the thickness of the glissando line with
\override Glissando #'thickness = #(number)
as in example before
I don't know what you mean with non-linear glissando, but you can have
a look here if you need just to change the shape of the line:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/notation/line-styles
or search the LSR for more tweaks:

Dear Eluze and Tiresia,
thank you for the comments. I didn't know about that feature :-)
Does also the makeClusters command have something similar? Unfortunately
\override makeClusters #'thickness = #8 doesn't work.

Re: Standalone bar lines in StaffGroup
Hello, I tried out the '\override SpanBar #'transparent = ##t' command, and although it really removes the barlines between staves, the problem is, that if I introduce a barline in a staff (or I put the repeat volta command) I still get the barlines in every stave. Do you have any idea on how to suppress the global barline settings (if I understand the terminology well, this is supposed to be called 'barline engraver'), but only for those few bars, not for the entire score?

My problem is that if I do what was described there, I get separate barlines for the whole movement. I only need at about 2 measures with separate barlines, the rest should have the same time signature and barline. I try to put here in some kind of plain text that part of the piece (without shars and flats to see better what's going on): | gagabgabgabgabg | abca |: gabca :| (*17) | agabgabgabgabga | bacba |: gabacba :| (*12) | gabgabgabgabgab | cgabc |: gabc :| (*21) As you can see, in the first bar, the barlines are at the same time in every staff, so they must be connected. The begin-repeat barlines are at different times, so they shouldn't be connected with each other. Finally, the ending barlines occur at the same time. (There are 17*5 = 85 notes in the first staff inside the repeat, while there are 7 * 12 = 4 * 21 = 84 notes inside the repeats of the other two staves. If you take in account that the repeat block in the first staff begins one note prior to the repeat blocks of the other staves, you'll see that the ending barlines occur at the same time). Now, I have to invent something to engrave this... Hm... If you have to do it manually, do you know about the difference between the Bar and SpanBar grobs? The SpanBar is the element that goes *between* (but not *through) the staves. And you can dynamically hide (and show) the SpanBars at any point using something like \once \override SpanBar #'transparent = ##t. I think the SpanBar lives in a relaitvely high-level context, so you might have to say Score.SpanBar or something to make it work. Try running a small test to see how that works.

Re: Microtone accidentals
Hello,
after lot of people suggested to me to upgrade to version 2.11, I did
it. I have to admit that the result is much better than in 2.10,
specially with a lot of smart automation on text positioning, which up
to now was done by myself. But I have some serious problems which I
don't know how to solve. These are almost all related to textspanners.
1) If I simply use the method suggested by upgrade-ly for text spanners,
that is:
\override TextSpanner #'bound-details #'left #'text = left-text
\override TextSpanner #'bound-details #'right #'text = right-text
I don't get the dashed lines, only the texts (in my particular case,
left-text was set to #(markup #:italic restez IV), and right-text
to , but also doesn't work with #(markup #:italic sul sol) and , etc.)
2) I'm also getting the bug posted some time ago by Trevor Bača ('Overly
thick results from markup with draw-line'). Is there some workaround
related to this?
3) If there's a linebreak while a text spanner is active, the
textspanner's end-text gets displayed on the end of the line, and the
textspanner's begin-text gets displayed at the beginning of the new
line. How can I avoid this behaviour and get the one that worked in
2.10? (No duplications of the begin and end texts.) The reason in my
particular case is that the mentioned text-spanner tells the player that
he has to go from ordinary bow to sul ponticello while playing, and he
only has to reach the sul ponticello at the end of the text span. If I
got the sp sign printed on the end of the line, and I get the ord sign
printed at the beginning of the new line again, that would mean that the
player should do this two times (the ord-sp transition).
4) text spanners are printed for some reason some times very very far
from the musical context, with no reason. Also, markup texts are placed
always above text spanners, which not always is convenient, but I don't
know how to change this behaviour. Also, if I have several text spanners
the one after the other, every new text spanner gets placed above the
prior one, causing the space between the staves to be enormous. The
normal behaviour for this should be that in this cases they come one
time above, the next time below the prior text spanner, respectively, to
keep space. Can I force the spanners to do this somehow?
5) There's a line in my score where I get no more linebreak. In 2.10,
Lilypond broke me the line at that particular place, thus I got a very
nice and balanced score (this was not a manual linebreak, however, it
was a very good decision by the engine to put it there). Now, I don't
get the linebreak, and thanks to this, I have two pages that contain
single systems (I'm engraving a string quartet!), and in one of them the
system is longer than the page... And even if I put a manual linebreak,
it does nothing. In the particular case, there are several glissandi
crossing that barline. Can this cause this error? Do you have any idea
to avoid it?
6) At compilation time, I'm getting lots of 'warning: Found infinity or
nan in output. Substituting 0.0' warnings, which I hadn't get before. Do
you have any idea for this?
Thank you,
Adam

I forgot to mention that it will only work with 2.11 (the syntax has
changed since 2.10).
Since you're running 2.10, you may have to use a few modifications
(such as accidentals.2 instead of accidentals.sharp, etc.). --
however, you'd better upgrade to 2.11.27; it's quite reliable and

Beams across barlines and line breaking
Hello, after upgrading to 2.11, the beams going accross barlines block the engine from making line breaks. The problem is that I have a polyphonic place in the score I'm engraving where there are 9 bars one after the other that have barline-crossing beams in some of the voices, and 9 bars are much longer than a single line in an arbitrary paper. If I try to introduce manual line breaks with the \break command, I only get the following warning: warning: forced break was overridden by some other event, should you be using bar checks? And the line still doesn't get broken. How can I force the lines to break? Is this maybe a bug?

Standalone bar lines in StaffGroup
Hello, I'm engraving a string quartet, and I have the four staffs inside a StaffGroup. This is normally good for bar lines, as normally I need single barlines that display through the four staves. But there's a point where the time signatures differ for every stave, but just for a few bars. How can I tell the engine to create separate barlines only for that few staves? Thank you, Adam P.S. If someone knew a solution on how to connect a horizontal line to a barline, or better, a solution to how to tell the engine to put the first notes of the bars exactly on the barline (as this would solve the line problem with some invisible notes on the barline that have glissando lines attached), please tell me! (The 'put the first notes of the bar exactly on the barline' could also be useful to engrave scores that have strict space notation, like Tristan Murail's ones.)

Re: Microtone accidentals
Hello,
wow, this is very nice! I also tried it with flat sign (just to try it
out), and also works fine. Thank you!
BTW, could you explain a bit (maybe in a private mail) how actually it
works? I would like to adopt the sign to be able to create the
down-arrowed accidentals too, and to be able to attach them to natural
signs also, but unfortunately I know nothing about postscripting...

As an explanation, the 1/6 pitch accidentals are actually simple
vertical arrows, which can be standalone (that means 1/6 pitch higher or
lower as the base pitch) or combined with sharp symbols (if this is the
case, the obtained pitch is 1/6 higher or lower than the respective
sharp). Theoretically there could also be arrows combined with flats,
but they are not necessary to get the full 'palette' of 1/6 pitches (for
example, [uparrow + g flat] would mean the same as [uparrow + f sharp]).
Some times the standalone arrows are combined with natural symbols. I'm
not sure if these signs are standardized or not, but composers like
Grisey or Murail use these symbols frequently in their scores.

It has to be adapted, of course.

Horizontal brackets
Hello Everyone, Since yesterday I also found that there are several kinds of horizontal brackets: volta brackets, mensural ligature brackets, analysis brackets, the \hbracket markup command (well, that puts a second bracket, but in reversed direction), measure group brackets, piano pedal brackets, tuplet brackets... But I couldn't force any of these things to put a simple horizontal (better would be a double one, but I'd be glad if I could get even a single) bracket above some of my notes. I also had a look to the LSR, but there was also nothing related to this. I also tried to put a textspanner with solid line, but I was unable to display the small vertical lines at the beginning and the end of the line (which is the difference between a simple line and a bracket). Can it happen that there is no routine in Lilypond that could display a common horizontal bracket?...

Dear Users, I'm engraving a score that has several microtonal accidentals of 1/6 pitches. I know that there are no 1/6-pitch accidentals in Lilypond (as far as I know there are only 1/4 tone accidentals), and I have a very short deadline for this work, so I don't think I could put this wish to a feature request list, but must do something by myself (as I need to solve the issue in a very short time). Does anyone know how should I start with this? As an explanation, the 1/6 pitch accidentals are actually simple vertical arrows, which can be standalone (that means 1/6 pitch higher or lower as the base pitch) or combined with sharp symbols (if this is the case, the obtained pitch is 1/6 higher or lower than the respective sharp). Theoretically there could also be arrows combined with flats, but they are not necessary to get the full 'palette' of 1/6 pitches (for example, [uparrow + g flat] would mean the same as [uparrow + f sharp]). Some times the standalone arrows are combined with natural symbols. I'm not sure if these signs are standardized or not, but composers like Grisey or Murail use these symbols frequently in their scores.

Hello Everyone, I'm trying to create a new dynamic sign for 'attacco impercettibile' (this can be found for example in scores of some spectralist composers, like Gérard Grisey). This sign is supposed to be something like a striked circle, like the character ɵ or ø character, and it means something like 'zero volume', so if it's at the beginning of a crescendo, you should start playing from absolute stillness, and if it's at the end of a decrescendo, you should make the decrescendo until total still. For this, I tried the following code: zeroDyn = #(make-dynamic-script ø) This works, but the output looks quite awful, it would be better to use some other character font and/or make the character to be smaller. But if I change the ø to (for example) \roman ø, I don't get the desired result. How can I set the font type and/or size used to create the dynamic symbols with make-dynamic-script?

'Bartok'-pizz.
Hello, What is the code for the articulation mark representing the so-called 'Bartok'-pizzicato? (A circle like for flageolets, but with a short vertical line crossing the circle at the top.) I hadn't found this in the table of articulation signs in the manual.

Re: 'Bartok'-pizz.
Thank you, this works quite nice, and sorry for the duplicated question

You could do something like:
#(define-markup-command (bartokpizz layout props) ()
(interpret-markup layout props
(markup #:stencil
(ly:stencil-translate-axis
(ly:stencil-add
(make-circle-stencil 0.7 0.1 #f)
(ly:make-stencil
(list 'draw-line 0.1 0 0.1 0 1)
'(-0.1 . 0.1) '(0.1 . 1)
)
)
0.7 X
)
)
)
)
bartok = \markup \bartokpizz
{
c4^\bartok
}
I found this on:

Horizontal brackets
Hello, I'm trying to set up upper double brackets (the 'con molta pressione' sign for strings), but I have no idea on how to do this. I found that there are analysis brackets, but I can't force them to put themselves on the top of the notes, they don't really have rectangular shape, and they don't really nest well into each other (they have space between each other). I've seen that in mensural notation there are rectangular brackets for ligatures, but I also didn't catch how to display them in ordinary scores. Does anyone know a solution?

How to make notes like pitchedTrill?
Hello Everyone, How can I make a stemless, small note head in parentheses outside a trill? I know that there's a command called 'pitchedTrill', but if I use it without using the startTrillSpan and stopTrillSpan commands, I get the following error: error: syntax error, unexpected EXPECT_MUSIC, expecting EXPECT_MARKUP or EXPECT_SCM or EXPECT_NO_MORE_ARGS (my guess was the following: fis \glissando \pitchedTrill his,,) I have to make a long glissando, and I would like to show the ending note of the glissando with a small, stemless notehead without duration in parentheses (like the one produced by pitchedTrill). Any ideas? Thank you, Adam Siska Ádám +36 (70) 207-63-85 http://apocalypse.rulez.org/~sadam ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
glissandi for chords
Hello Everyone, one more question: how can I make double-glissandi? I have to connect two chords with glissando lines, but if I put a e'16 \glissando h fis' I only get one line between the e and fis, instead of getting two lines (one between a and h and another between e and fis). How could I correct this?

Re: glissandi for chords
Hi Neil,
thanks, this helped a lot.
Bye,
Adam
P.S. I used \hideNotes and \unHideNotes instead of the overrides, as I
had some problems with some dotted chords.

Create another voice, then you can attach a glissando to it:
{ % New voice ( = \voiceOne) without stems or beams
\override Stem #'stencil = ##f
\override Beam #'stencil = ##f
% Attach glissando to noteheads
e8 \glissando fis
} \\ { % Original voice with chords rearranged so that glissando
is attached to a b
e a, \glissando fis h,
}

Neil

Re: glissandi for chords
Hello,
that's it:
{\clef bass
\new Voice {
\hideNotes
% Attach glissando to noteheads
e8 \glissando fis
\unHideNotes
} {
% Original voice with chords rearranged so that glissando is
attached to a b
e a, \glissando fis b,
} }
hope this helps,
Adam
P.S. I found this better as in my original score I have dotted chords,
and the dot positioning was better if I managed to do it this way.

I added it to the LSR; can you please post your code here (if you
think it's simpler) so I can correct the snippet?
