Being a guitar player, chord more naturally refers to C than c e g. The chord *symbols* as in A#7 or Bbsus4 are now implemented in version 1.01. The example you sent me translates fine, so do chord symbols in the example scores that come with Sibelius 5 (but see below). What I get now is that chord symbols come out twice.

Re: Lilypond vs Score
After seeing that output, I'm curious: has anybody played around in Lilypond with making the staff curve around (like forming a circle, or just bending down the page or something)? I'd like to be able to do that. Best, Jonathan This is exactly why I 'm so glad that Lilypond can produce SVG output. Import the SVG into Inkscape 0.47 and you can do ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING with your score. I've said it before - SVG output from Lilypond can be imported into Inkscape, where the graphical elements can be manipulated in any way you want. No restrictions on placement of notes, spacing, text, pictures, grob sizes, bend staves, stems, etc. The LilyPond/LilyPondTool/Inkscape combination is OUTSTANDING.

Brett, This is a modification of the code I use to draw this mark. Maybe you can put this in the \header block somewhere where it will appear in the appropriate place.

How to glue markup with parameter passed note in define-music-function environment?
Hello, I'm trying to define music function, a note with baroque descriptions.

Re: New Sibelius to LilyPond conversion suite
Hi Kirill, This is an interesting approach to Sibelius to LilyPond conversion. However, I do agree with Carl's earlier message. It seems that a more generally useful approach would be to improve MusicXML to LilyPond conversion. The Dolet 5 for Sibelius and Dolet 5 for Finale converters both convert nearly as much musical information to MusicXML as is possible via the program's plug- in interface. Dolet 1 for Sibelius is many years old and designed for much older versions of Sibelius that did not have such extensive plug-in capabilities. Obviously one can do much better than Dolet 1 with Sibelius 6, but I don't think this extends to Dolet 5. I would be interested in hearing what you can convert directly to your XML format from your plug-in that is not being exported with the Dolet 5 for Sibelius plug-in. If it's available from the Sibelius 6.1 plug-in interface, Dolet 5 should export it to the MusicXML file. There will definitely be lossiness going from Sibelius to an intermediate format, and from that intermediate format to LilyPond. But I think the lossiness will be minimized if that intermediate format is MusicXML produced by our latest Dolet plug-ins. The focus of the development could then be on reducing the lossiness of MusicXML to LilyPond conversions. That would make things work better for all programs - commercial programs like Finale or Sibelius, or free programs like MuseScore.

Re: String number tuning
Bob, Not only is it possible, but it is probable that doing so will increase your fun quotient with LilyPond. You'll be interested in http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/Inside-the-staff#Fingering-instructions In particular, be aware that modifications like \set fingeringOrientations = '#(left) don't have an effect on fingerings placed on notes which are not within a chord construct. That is, if you want a single note fingering to go left (or right or down), you'll have to put it into chord braces -- b-14 rather than b4-1 (that trips up a lot of new users when they start modifying fingering placements).

Hi Michael, Granted, your Dolet 5 is perhaps much more advanced than the earlier versions. I'm sure you are doing a wonderful job there, and a very useful one too. I haven't tried Dolet 5 yet, though, as it costs $199. However, I am such a militant believer in Free Software, that even if I *did* start working on MusicXML-LilyPond converter, I would be ethically compelled to first produce a free and open source exporter from Sibelius to MusicXML, essentially duplicating the functionality of Dolet and intruding on your territory. I do not want to do that. Best, Kirill Sidorov ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: String number tuning
Tried it but nothing happens: % measure 2: { r8 c'8 e8 c8 e4 } \\ { \set fingeringOrientations = #'(right) c,2.-4 } David Stocker wrote: Bob, Not only is it possible, but it is probable that doing so will increase your fun quotient with LilyPond. You'll be interested in http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/Inside-the-staff#Fingering-instructions In particular, be aware that modifications like \set fingeringOrientations = '#(left) don't have an effect on fingerings placed on notes which are not within a chord construct. That is, if you want a single note fingering to go left (or right or down), you'll have to put it into chord braces -- b-14 rather than b4-1 (that trips up a lot of new users when they start modifying fingering placements).

Re: New Sibelius to LilyPond conversion suite
On Thu, 4 Feb 2010, Michael Good wrote: There will definitely be lossiness going from Sibelius to an intermediate format, and from that intermediate format to LilyPond. But I think the lossiness will be minimized if that intermediate format is MusicXML produced by our latest Dolet plug-ins. The focus of the development could then be on reducing the lossiness of MusicXML to LilyPond conversions. That would make things work better for all programs - commercial programs like Finale or Sibelius, or free programs like MuseScore. It would make things even much better if the Dolet plugins would be free or at least cost much less than they do now. Then more people will start using it, more bugs will be revealed, and feature requests will be reported, more bugs will be fixed, and development speed will be increased drastically. For example, how many people in this mailinglist actually bought the Dolet plugin for Sibelius ? Everyone has his own preferred music scoring tool. For me that is Lilypond, for others this may be Sibelius, or Finale, or MuseScore. MusicXML was and still is a great idea aiming to provide a way to exchange scores between all these tools. I just don't hope MusicXML will be like Esperanto: The Universal Language that practically no one really uses. -- Martin ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
