New issue 4543 by [email protected]: articulate.ly: update
documentation, add support for portato
https://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=4543
<https://codereview.appspot.com/260040043/>
This is a small enhancement which I've had lying around for a while...
Since the "portato" articulation is nowadays supported when generating MIDI
without using articulate.ly, there's really no reason why this articulation
couldn't be supported by articulate.ly as well.
This changeset updates the articulate.ly script documentation on the
supported articulations with a description of ac:staccatissimoFactor, and
adds ac:portatoFactor for shortening notes marked portato, and slurred
notes marked with staccato. The default value for ac:portatoFactor is 3/4
(to match the shortening factor for portato notes when not using
articulate.ly).
I'll try my luck at suggesting this enhancement in a form which
automatically renders also slurred notes marked staccato using
the "portato" articulation (see <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portato>) –
it's easy to remove this feature if there's controversy about how such
notes "should" be rendered, or whether the note at which the slur ends
should still be rendered using the "portato" articulation or not (as
articulate.ly gives slurred notes without any explicit articulations their
full length *except* for the note at which the slur ends, which again gets
shortened by ac:normalFactor).
