Re: piano notation element
Francisco,

Hello,
in piano scores when a particular note (chord) in the upper staff
should be played with the left hand, a bracket of inverted L shape
is placed before that note.
I believe it is either in LP documentation or in Snippets, but
unfortunately I can't find it.
Could you point me please...
Possibly something like
LH = \markup { \postscript #0.2 setlinewidth 0 0 moveto -1 0 lineto 0
-5 rlineto stroke }
{ e''^\LH }
A good design would have taken into account the pitch instead of
having a fixed height, but I could be a starting point anyway.
Nice starting point!
Of course it should take accidentals, flags, etc. into account too.
By the way this sort of bracket isn't rare in romantic polyphonic
music like Scriabine (which I like very much:).
Thankyou!

Re: stemBoth problem
Hu,
2009/2/3 胡海鹏 - Hu Haipeng hhpmu...@163.com:
Hello,
Vallentin ever helped me to get a stemBoth function when I wrote the full
score of my song for attending the CCTV piano competition:
stemBoth = #(define-music-function (parser location m) (ly:music?)
#{ \voiceOne $m \new Voice { \voiceTwo $m } \oneVoice #})
Now I'm orchestrating Debussy's Clair De Lune. The British teacher is very
happy with my progress, and the piece is coming to its finish. But when I
use the function as follows (viola), I discovered its big disadvantage, and
then had to use a usual input way:
\relative c {
\clef alto \key des \major \time 9/8
r8 f aes4\pp^Div. \stemBoth ces'2. |
}
Both note and octave dot are copied, therefore the output is:
\relative c {
\clef alto \key des \major \time 9/8
r8 f aes4\pp^Div. ces' ces'2. |
}
What a boring result! Could anyone tell me how to filter out the octave
dot and leave only note?
Why not to use simple polyphony?
\relative c {
\clef alto \key des \major \time 9/8
r8 f aes4\pp^Div. ces'2. \\ ces2. |
}
I didn't see much merit to use a function here.

How to move StringNumber along Y-axis?
Dear list,
How do I move the StringNumber to below the Staff? I tried Y-offset

tried the X-offset and that /did/ work. Any ideas?

String number in a \markup
Hi folks,
Is there a way to insert a string number into a \markup? What I need is
to indicate a scordatura for a guitar piece like this:
\markup {
\column {
\line { \small 5 = G }
\line { \small 6 = C }
}
}
where the '5' and '6' are identical to their analogous string numbers
(i.e. they are encircled)
In the Feta Font, these don't seem to by music-glyphs. Is there a
reasonably easy way to call these within a \markup? are they glyphs from
another font?
Thanks,
Dave

decreasing spacing between staves
Greetings, I've looked high and low for the solution to this (rather basic, IMO) problem, and seem to be coming up empty-handed: I have a score that requires a single-line tablature staff above the main staff, which contains pitches. I need to find a way to decrease the space between the tablature staff and the main one such that it generally is not more than 2 spaces (i.e. staff spaces) above the main staff, but yet will move higher if needed to avoid collisions with leger lines, articulations, etc. Noteheads between these two staves will typically be beamed together (i.e. cross-staff beaming). Adjusting the minimum-Y-extent of VerticalAxisGroup does not seem to have the desired effect (staves are too far apart); adjusting offsets in NonMusicalPaperColumn is possible, but only doable at the very last stage, i.e. once all other input is done. So, is there an easy (and hopefully intuitive) way to decrease space between two staves (even if the score were to contain more than 2 staves) globally, without having to set system breaks, such that the layout will default to a narrower vertical spacing for those staves? Thanks, EF ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: decreasing spacing between staves
You say that you tried adjusting the minimum-Y-extent, but
did try doing it both for the Staff and the TabStaff context?
The following should get rid of any extra space:
\layout{
\context{
\Staff
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(0 . 0)
}
\context{
\TabStaff
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(0 . 0)
}
}
