Dear All,
I was very interested in the correspondence about a title-page.
I noticed that Kieren's solution seemed to ignore the original header
information and insert another markup for it while Valentin's
solution produced very small titles while using \book so I took
the liberty of combining the two solutions:
%start of file
\version "2.10.33"
% I strongly recommend using 2.12 or 2.13!
#(define-markup-command (vspace layout props amount) (number?)
"This produces a invisible object taking vertical space."
(ly:make-stencil "" (cons -1 1) (cons 0 amount))
(ly:make-stencil "" (cons -1 1) (cons amount amount)))
\paper {
print-page-number=##f
ragged-bottom=##t
ragged-last-bottom=##t
print-all-headers = ##t
}
#(set-global-staff-size 14)
\header {
title = \markup \center-column { \vspace #64 \fontsize #18 "Mask" }
% poet = "Eva Wiest"
subtitle = \markup \center-column { \vspace #64 \fontsize #12 "Eva Wiest" }
copyright = "Eva Wiest (http://summerandfall.de/)"
tagline = ##f
}
melody = \relative c' {
a'1 ~ a2
a4 b4 c2 c4 c4 b2 c4 b4 a2 a4 g4 e2
a4 b4 c2 c4 c4 b2 a4 g4 a1 ~ a2
a4 b4
}
textI = \lyricmode {
She
She is cold as blue ice with a face of gra -- nite,
she will ne -- ver give up or give in,
She won't
}
guitar = \chordmode {
a1:m f a:m g a:m e
a:m g f r
}
\book {
\pageBreak
\score {
<<
\new ChordNames { \set chordChanges = ##t \guitar }
\new Voice = "one" { \clef treble \melody }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" { \textI }
>>
\layout { indent = 0.0\cm }
\header {
title = "Mask"
subtitle = ""
composer = "Composed by Eva Wiest"
poet = "Lyrics by Eva Wiest"
}
}
}
%end of file
To get another header on the second page, you insert the \header {}
into the \score but *after* the music. Also I had to put \subtitle = ""
to stop part of the first header from repeating itself.
Also,
print-all-headers = ##t
has to go in \paper {}
Thanks to Kieren and Valentin for elucidating this problem.
(And thanks to Susan for asking the question)
I can now place this code in my archive for future use.
