Automatic fixing of note between measures
Sometimes a note in my (generated) music falls on the bar lines. Is there
a way to auto fix it by splitting the note as per the measure and joining
the two parts with a tie?
In the following, the first line shows that there are five quarter notes
in the first measure rather than 4.
The second line is how I would like it to be auto-resolved.
\version 2.18.2
\relative c' {c4 d e f2 g h}
\relative c' {c4 d e f~f g h}

Yes, there is the Completion_heads_engraver. I don’t remember exactly
how to use it, but you’ll find it in the manuals.

Re: Automatic fixing of note between measures
I found it in one of my own scores:
\layout {
\context {
\Voice
\remove Note_heads_engraver
\remove Rest_engraver
\consists Completion_heads_engraver
\consists Completion_rest_engraver
}
}

Re: Automatic fixing of note between measures
The project I'm working on right now also automatically generates music and
I ran into the same problem. Here's what my software automatically
generates now to deal with it:
\score {
\new PianoStaff
\new Staff = upper
\new Voice = first \with {\remove Note_heads_engraver \consists
Completion_heads_engraver \remove Rest_engraver \consists
Completion_rest_engraver}
\voice_one
\new Staff = lower
\new Voice = second \with {\remove Note_heads_engraver \consists
Completion_heads_engraver \remove Rest_engraver \consists
Completion_rest_engraver}
\voice_five
\layout{ragged-bottom = ##t ragged-right = ##t }
}
What you're looking for is the stuff starting at \with {\remove
...\consists Completion_rest_engraver}
This is a lifesaver.

Nice, that works. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Automatic fixing of note between measures
David, That works. Malte also suggested something similar. Is there a reason not to use Completion_heads_engraver all the time or atleast as a default? I am also using a compound metre. Hopefully this will work with that. In one case I have repeating measures of 5/4 + 3/4 + 2/4. I have succeeded in getting the bar lines printed after 5th and 8th quarter notes in a 10/4 time scale by adding a voice with bar lines at those places. May be there is a different method of achieving this effect. Jay ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Automatic fixing of note between measures
Is there a reason not to use Completion_heads_engraver all the time or atleast as a default? I think the expectation is that most composers most of the time do not want notes split up automatically as it probably means a mistake was made when entering the notes. Basically they'll split when they want to. It's just you and I working with generated scores where this other behavior is preferred. I am also using a compound metre. Hopefully this will work with that. I have no idea about that! For me I'm just using the bar lines and automatic breaking more for aesthetic reasons or as a help to the performer to see where they are than I am for any musical reasons. So for me 4/4 is all I'm using. Naively I would assume that it should work for more complex time signatures. In one case I have repeating measures of 5/4 + 3/4 + 2/4. I have succeeded in getting the bar lines printed after 5th and 8th quarter notes in a 10/4 time scale by adding a voice with bar lines at those places. May be there is a different method of achieving this effect. I'm not quite getting what you're trying to do, do have a picture or some code?
