Hi all
I've got two questions concerning clefs and keys:
Is it possible to force a clef symbol being printed (with all automatic
spacing) whithout the key
is being changed? (\changecontext does not put a clef symbol when the
\setclef is called with the actual clef as parameter).
Question 1: this works (but the artificial symbol is a bit smaller)
\input musixtex
\nostartrule
\instrumentnumber1
\setclef1\treble
% forcing a treble clef (but we already knew:-)
\startextract
\NOTes\nq{abcd}\en
\setclefsymbol1\empty%
\setclef1{\bass}\changeclefs%
\resetclefsymbols%
\setclef1{\treble}\changeclefs%
\NOTes\nq{abcd}\en
\endextract
\end
Hope this helps,

RE: [TeX-music] key-signature layout
I've extracted and posted the section about clefs from the revised musixdoc that Andre and I have been working on: http://icking-music-archive.org/software/musixtex/mxdocclefs.pdf The very first example seems to answer your question (text at bottom of p.52, printed example at top of p.53). I'm curious why you didn't come across \setclef...\changeclefs from the current manual, and also why Jean-Pierre didn't recommend this approach. Maybe I'm missing something here. --Don Simons -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Bernhard Lang Sent: Monday, April 24, 2006 1:21 AM To: Typesetting music with TeX Subject: [TeX-music] key-signature layout Hi all I've got two questions concerning clefs and keys: Is it possible to force a clef symbol being printed (with all automatic spacing) whithout the key is being changed?

Re: [TeX-music] key-signature layout
Still, Jean-Pierre has it right, i think: In MusixTeX it is not possible to get twice the same clef. The clef must change or you don't see it. You can perhaps try something as (if the clef was already \treble) \setclef18\zchangeclefs\setclef1\treble\changeclefs clef 8 is a blanco clef, but it is not documented in the old manual Andre - Original Message - From: Don Simons [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Typesetting music with TeX tex-music@icking-music-archive.org Sent: Monday, April 24, 2006 5:08 PM Subject: RE: [TeX-music] key-signature layout I've extracted and posted the section about clefs from the revised musixdoc that Andre and I have been working on: http://icking-music-archive.org/software/musixtex/mxdocclefs.pdf The very first example seems to answer your question (text at bottom of p.52, printed example at top of p.53).
