I can compile your files without error - however \stringNumbersOff does
not alter the output I added something to functions.ly to be
sure it had been called.
No the function \stringNumbersOff does nothing in this case. It would only
work if string numbers had been used, and then because it's turning them
off, you wouldn't see anything in the output anyway. hah!
However, you'll know if functions.ly hasn't been found because lilypond will
complain about unknown escape string "\stringNumbersOff"
I am unfamiliar with using StringNumber so cannot comment if the syntax is
correct here but it seems odd that nothing changes even when all inside
{ } is commented out in functions.ly
The function works fine...have been using it for a few years now. It just
sets StringNumber to transparent and zeros the X and Y extents so that the
transparent string number does not take up any space.
I think your trouble may lie in the functions.ly file.
Not it doesn't
Have you tried to place the definition inside the the main test.ly file -
I'm not sure what functions.ly is meant to do.
In test.ly 3rd line.....\include "functions.ly"
Phil.
I share your problem with the manuals -I, --include=directory
is this one option or two?
Can you use either ?
Why are there two options?
I do not know, David K does but he is very short with lesser mortals.
