Hi all,
after quite some time doing other stuff I want to return to my work on
Frescobaldi's "Show fonts" dialog. I decided to finalize the new dialog
for now without providing an extensive interface for automatically
choosing music *and* text fonts and producing the code for use in the
input file. The dialog will allow copying the incantation to select the
chosen music font to the clipboard and that will be it for now. I just
have to stop at some point, or I'll never manage to get this feature
merged into master ...
Today I'm asking (again) for some contribution of LilyPond files for use
in the Show Available Fonts dialog.
The Music Fonts tab allows to compile a) a set of provided samples, b)
an arbitrary file and c) the "current document" using any of the
installed notation fonts. So far the following files/styles are provided:
* Bach (piano)
* Scriabine (piano)
* Berg (clarinet/piano)
* Berg (string quartet)
However, the selection of provided samples should cover a possibly wide
range of styles, and I would like to add some more examples like e.g.
* Neumes notation
* Mensural notation
* Classical "score" (e.g. an initial system of a Haydn symphony)
* Contemporary notation (as long as it shows off *glyphs* and not only
graphical tools)
I'm not sure if this can be claimed "fair use", so that should
rather be some music that is explicitly sharable.
* ...
In addition I would like to have one "glyphs sheet" sample. Here you can
see a stub of such a file, also as a reminder how that dialog behaves:
https://github.com/frescobaldi/frescobaldi/pull/1075#issuecomment-459260351
Such an example might be organized as a series of \score-s with
interspersed \markup-s, it just has to be a self-contained file without
a \paper block.
I would be very glad about further contributions (some of the existing
samples have been provided by others) so I can concentrate on the actual
Frescobaldi coding.
Best
Urs
