Re: Left-handed fretboard?

[francisperea]

Hi Carl,

I may not be an expert, I've only been playing the guitar for less than a
year, but in a couple of methods I've used to learn string 1 is the closest
to the floor, the thinnest, the highest pitch, be it right or left-handed.

In the opposite the topmost is the thickest one, string 6, the farthest from
the floor.

Hi Thomas,

I've had some time to test your solution and it's also great for me. All I
have to do is include your code snippet at the beginning of my files and it
works great!

Thanks once again for your time and knowledge.

Re: Left-handed fretboard?

In fact string 1 is in all cases the bottommost string, the thinnest one.
The topmost is the thickness one and is referenced as string 6 or string 4
depending on the instrument.

Re: Left-handed fretboard?

Hi Carl and Thomas,

First of all I’d like to thank you both both for your fast reply. After two
years using Lilypond I’m both impressed by the capabilities of the tool as
much as by the great community support.

Carl, regarding your assumption, YES, you are totally right, that’s exactly
what I’m looking for, a mirrored version of the fretboard, just as it is in
left-handed intruents, be they guitar, ukulele or bass.

If you could fix it I’d be willing to test it for sure.

Thanks once again for your great support.

Left-handed fretboard?

[francisperea]

Hi all,

Just a simple question, does anybody know if there is any way to create
left-handed fretboard diagrams for guitar and/or ukulele?

With FretBoard.fret-diagram-details.orientation I get normal or landscape
right-handed fret diagrams. 

I'm thinking in totally rewriting the predefined-guitar-fretboards.ly and
predefined-ukulele-fretboards.ly files but before such a tedious work I have
to ensure there is no better way :-)

Thanks a lot in advance.

I'm using the following code:

---
\version "2.19.33"
\include "predefined-guitar-fretboards.ly"

melody = \chordmode{
  c
}

\score {
  <<  
\context ChordNames { \melody }
\context FretBoards {
  \override FretBoard.fret-diagram-details.orientation =
#'opposing-landscape
  \melody
}
  >>
  \layout { }
}

Re: Long Compile time with version 2.19.44

[francisperea]

Hi all,

I'm just writing to confirm that under macOS Sierra (10.12) Lilypond 2.19.48
is extremely slow.

I've downgraded to 2.19.47 and finally to 2.19.46.

2.19.47 was also terribly slow but 2.19.46 worked as usual.

As a sample, a simple file took 1.2 seconds to compile under 2.19.46 and
51.4 seconds under 2.19.48.

Just to provide some reference for those in the same situation and perhaps
to help developers locate the problem.

Regards,

Francis Perea

Unwanted naturals on teaching accidentals style

[francisperea]

Hi all, I'm just new to Lilypond and impressed with its capabilities.

One of my first tries with it was a set of scales for my own learning
changing key every two bars. I wanted to show the accidentals of the key, so
I used  \accidentalStyle teaching

The problem is that in the first bar of every key change it only shows the
key accidentals as I wanted, but in the second bar of every key change a lot
of unwanted naturals are shown. 

Any idea of how to get rid of them?

Thanks a lot in advance.

PS Here is the code I'm using, in case someone wants to test it.

\version "2.18.2"
\language "espanol"

\header{
  title = "Ejercicios de escalas mayores"
  tagline = ""
}

\relative {
 \accidentalStyle teaching
 \override AccidentalCautionary.parenthesized = ##f
 
 \set Staff.printKeyCancellation = ##f
 \override Staff.KeyCancellation.break-visibility = #all-invisible   
 \set Staff.extraNatural = ##f
 
  \tempo 4 = 60
  
 \key sib \major
  sib8^"Sib" do re mib fa sol la sib
  la sol fa mib re do sib4

  \key si \major
  si8^"Si" dos res mi fas sols las si
  las sols fas mi res dos si4
  
  \key do \major
  do8^"Do" re mi fa sol la si do
  si la sol fa mi re do4
}
