I don't think this is a LilyPond bug but I thought I would mention it here.
A few days ago I was working on some LilyPond project I have. I usually have Ghostveiw running, and set to "watch file" so I'll see my changes right away. Well, at one point I saw some very unpleasant changes. Note heads, clefs, key signatures, maybe some other stuff as well, disappeared. I saw some little tiny glyph in the area where I should have been seeing a key signarture and wondered what was there. I magnified it, and to my surprise, in the magnification window it looked fine. I printed the page and there were no missing symbols. Then I discovered that if I changed the overall page magnification it would "fix" itself. I further discovered that if I toggle between "natural size" and "pixel based" it will also fix itself. It's not that one or the other is more reliable. It is simply the act of switching that will fix it. I have tried saving the file when it appears strange, but the saved file looks fine, too. Sometimes the "wrong" appearance is fairly subtle; missing tuplet numbers and some dynamic markings, for example. At other times, though, it is quite shocking. Most of the music symbols are gone. There are staves, beams, stems, barlines, and some \number style numbers apparently substituting for some note heads, and nothing else. All I have to do is toggle between natural size/pixel based and it's fine. As I said, it isn't possible to print out the appearance. It's fine when printed. If I knew how to do a screen shot I'd try to get one to send in if anyone is interested. It doesn't seem to be a real problem. Just an odd minor inconvenience. -David _______________________________________________ Bug-lilypond mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
