I was thinking about asking this feature request on Frescobaldi mailing list (maybe I'll do it later). That would be great! I don't feel like doing this myself since i'm not using Frescobaldi I've asked and it seems that it may be implemented in version 2.0: http://groups.google.com/group/frescobaldi/browse_thread/thread/5f4bcc6b7f4feb88 Thanks! BTW, in the meanwhile you may open the .midi file with Rosegarden while editing the .ly file. See attached image: the blue bar moves along with midi time. You can place the score in one long line or vertically. Unfortunately, Rosegarden runs on Linux only. I know, and because of that Rosegarden is of no use for me (or, speaking precisely, for my choir - it is them who want a moving line that follows music, and they won't install Linux just to get that). :( Maybe Denemo, which is cross-platform, has a similar feature. Perhaps it has. Unfortunately i had some issues with it when i tried it. And above all it can only read .ly files made by itself, so i cannot use my code structure :( Nevertheless, thank you very much for your help! cheers, Janek PS my friend is helping me to compile that qt-pdfviewer (i'm doing this on a virtualized Ubuntu). If we succeed, i'll let you know. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

2011/1/19 Xavier Scheuer x.sche...@gmail.com: 2011/1/18 Janek Warchoł lemniskata.bernoull...@gmail.com It must have been this... Strangely it doesn't work for me. Even the ordinary Point-and-click doesn't work, only edit in place. Just to make sure, you need to use LilyPondTool's built-in PDF Preview in order to have this feature. Yes, i know. BTW if you want a look like Frescobaldi (could be useful), you can Dock at Bottom the console and Dock at Right the PDF viewer. This is explained in Valentin's video tutorial (in French!). http://valentin.villenave.info/Tutoriel-no1-pour-LilyPond I don't speak french, but fortunately i managed to do this on my own :) thanks for help, Janek ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
highlighting notes in pdf, synchronized pdf and midi playback
Hi, i'm pretty sure that i saw a program that could highlight objects in compiled pdf corresponding to the selected lilypond input, but i cannot find it now. Am i right? What was it? Also, is there any program that would play a midi file and highlight corresponding notes in pdf or do something similar? It would be useful for more convenient playback of LilyPond-generated scores. The only thing i found is http://gitorious.org/qt-pdfviewer http://qt-apps.org/content/show.php/PDF+MIDI+Player?content=134343 but there are no binaries and i was unable to compile the source... I'd be grateful for any help. cheers, Janek ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Am i right? What was it? It's been quite a long time since I've used it, but, IIRC, jEdit + LilyPondTool plugin can do it. Actually it doesn't highlight... It's a jump... a kind of reverse point-and-click. Also, is there any program that would play a midi file and highlight corresponding notes in pdf or do something similar? It would be useful for more convenient playback of LilyPond-generated scores. The most recent version of Frescobaldi uses KMid as internal midi player. When you press Play, you can see the number and the beat of the bar being played. [ If you use Debian Squeeze KMid is not in the repository and you have to compile it, see this thread: http://groups.google.com/group/frescobaldi/browse_thread/thread/011419c8961c3b4e#] Also, have you seen this website? http://musescore.com/videoscores Cheers, Federico ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

The most recent version of Frescobaldi uses KMid as internal midi player. When you press Play, you can see the number and the beat of the bar being played. To be precise, you don't see it on the .pdf You see on the bottom left, where the MIDI controllers (play, pause, stop) are. It's not what you are looking for. But I wonder if it could be the first step to get the synchronized highlighting on the PDF. I was thinking about asking this feature request on Frescobaldi mailing list (maybe I'll do it later). Too bad i use Windows... Well, keep an eye open on Frescobaldi development. Maybe next major release, 2.0, which should be released around the end of the year, will support Mac and Windows. Check these links: http://frescobaldi.org/development http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2010-12/msg00676.html Also, there will be the two-way point-and-click (a feature currently present only in LilypondTool, AFAIK). The thing is that i'm convincing my choir to stop using Finale, but they want to have that moving line which follows the playback in the score... Also, have you seen this website? http://musescore.com/videoscores Yes. It's nice, however as far as i know the synchronization is done by hand and not automatically. Also, highlightning whole measures instead of particular notes won't satisfy my fellow singers. nevertheless, thanks for help!

I'd be grateful for any help. I think it's for Linux only. Also, you'd better use version from gitorius, which is updated: git clone git://gitorious.org/qt-pdfviewer/qt-pdfviewer.git Even if it looks like a very young project, I'd like to give it a try but I have no clue about how to install it. It should be a Gentoo package (.ebuild).. but I use Debian. This is the tree of files: main.cpp main.h midi.cpp pdf.cpp qt-pdf-midi-player-0.1.ebuild qt-pdf-midi-player.desktop qt-pdf-midi-player.pro Any help appreciated.
