Hello,
I am new to Lilypond, cutting my teeth on a couple of pretty simple layouts -
this exercise is to reproduce a page of a Petrucci score.....
[X]
I'm thrilled with this ....
[cid:710639fb-021d-4038-8cea-e057f36c7914]
.... but I would like to remove the space from around the notes and bunch them
up like in the original. I tried a couple of things I found that looked
relevant - they're commented out in my snippet - and "\compressEmptyMeasures"
but to no avail .....
\version "2.18.2"
\header {
title = "Odhekaton"
composer = "Obrecht"
piece = "Alto"
}
\score {
<<
\new MensuralVoice = "alto" {
\clef "petrucci-c2"
\time 2/2
\override NoteHead.style = #'petrucci
% \override SpacingSpanner.base-shortest-duration = #(ly:make-moment 1/4)
% \override Score.SpacingSpanner.strict-note-spacing = ##t
\hide Score.BarNumber {
d'\breve
c'\breve
\[ d'1\melisma f'1. \melismaEnd \]
e'2 d'1 c'1. d'2 e'1 f'2. e'4 f'4 g'4 a'1 g'4 f'4 e'2 d'1 c'2 d'1. c'4 b4
c'\longa
}
}
>>
}
\layout { }
\midi { }
Any help, gratefully received.
By the way, I know it's not a Lilypond question, but if anyone can tell me how
to interpret "Verte"(?) that would be a help too.
Many thanks
Giles
PS I have a brand new installation on Windows 11 too if there is a more recent
feature required to make this work. All my other related software is on this
Windows 8.1 machine, so I use it for preference.
