Hi!
This is my first mail in this list.
I wrote a Qt based note editor for Linux:
http://rnvs.informatik.tu-chemnitz.de/~ja/noteedit/noteedit.html
which can export into MusiXTeX.
It works but the more elements I implement the greater
are the MuxiXTeX problems.
It is especially the problem of context change which causes
some serious problems. Please see the attachment! It consists
of 3 staffs and 8 measures.
The problem is: After the 4rd measure the score changes. Every
staff gets a new clef and a new key signature. The problem
occurs if these elements are different per staff. In this
case the bar at the end of the line in which the change occurs
has no connection with the staff lines.
Perhaps the problem is known and someone knows the solution.
You can answer: "This does not occur! Use 'generalsignature'!".
Right! If I use "generalsignature" all works!
But different signatures may occur (and are the normal case)
if some of the staffs are drum staffs. The notes of these staffs
mean drum elements. So it may occur the key signature of all instruments
but the drum staff changes.
If you have the time please look at my "example7.not". It has
a lot of score changes. If you export this into MusiXTeX the
result look terrible.
Thank you in advance!
