Re: Shrinking beams along with noteheads
nachkan wrote: I am simply trying to explicitly write out a glissando in small notes (of a specified size), while keeping the rhythmic notation accurate. They happen to be 64th notes, so they have four beams connecting the stems. It is easy enough to make the noteheads the desired size with e.g. \override NoteHead #'font-size = #-2. However, I cannot figure out how to make the beams smaller as well - which is a fairly big deal when you have four beams. I see that I can make the beam lines themselves thinner by writing e.g. \override Beam #'thickness = #0.35, but they are still spaced the same distance apart as they normally would be. I cannot find any reference to any variable or property which modifies the distance (or gap) between the beams (the Beam object's gap property, while sounding promising, seems to do nothing) - if I could, this problem would be solved. What I am looking for is essentially the same as what \grace does, but the notation it creates is too small for me, and I want to be able to set the size to somewhere in between grace note size and normal note size. I thought this would be a common enough problem but after hours of searching the internet, the lilypond docs, and these forums, I haven't been able to find a solution. Is there some way to modify the beam spacings in this way? Is there some way to alter the \grace command to produce the desired effect? Or any other way of approaching this problem? I don't mind doing some Scheme or other technical/geeky stuff, but I am currently at a loss as to how to proceed with this. Any help is really appreciated, thank you. Lilypond makes this easy: \set fontSize = #-2 (music) \unset fontSize (other music) It affects beam size, stem width and height, note head size, accidental size, and markup font size, nothing else, probably making it the ideal solution for you :) ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Weirdness in distribution of systems across pages
Hello list,
I have written a document with a number of pieces within a single \book block.
Each piece is a separate \score. I'm now working on an even density of the
systems, so the document looks nice as a whole. I have one problem here:
For some pieces I have set a fixed system-count to override lilypond’s
default, also I have a \pageBreak between all pieces except between 2 and 4.
This yields the result on the left of the screenshot. It's almost perfect,
except for piece 9, which is only three systems big with (relatively) much
space in between. So I tried if it could be 4 systems long and it can.
However, for some reason, when I do so it messes up piece 2. Although it is
two manual \pageBreaks apart, it is influenced by this one system-count and
its systems are spread across one additional page (though its system count
remains the same). You can see the result on the right column of the screenie.
Each piece is stored in a separate file. Those piece files contain the music
in the form of
\partone=\new ChoirStaff
\staffone
\lyricstostaffone
\stafftwo
\lyricstostafftwo
etc...
without any additional \layout information, only the occasional \break. The
main file has the scores and directly \includes the pieces into them.
Do you have any idea why piece 2 is influenced by piece 9? And -- more
importantly -- a way to solve this mystery?

Hi James,
in your first example you used a pipe symbol outside of the braces of

Hi,
I suppose it is due to beamExceptions that is set for 8th in 4/4
(see ‘scm/time-signature-settings.scm’).
This works:
\relative c' {
\time 4/4
\set Timing.baseMoment = #(ly:make-moment 1 8)
\set Timing.beatStructure = #'(3 3 2)
\set Timing.beamExceptions = #'()
c8 c c c c c c c
}
But this behaviour is strange (non expected from a user point of view)
and should be changed or at least documented.
Carl, thoughts?

Xavier

I can't see how it should be changed. It's totally under user control.
There are three separate context properties that affect autobeaming, and all
three need to be properly set.
I can see that it needs to be documented better. I'll cook a patch.

Re: Lyx 2.0 Beta 1, LilyPond OS X, MacTeX etc. - no lilypond integration
Further research shows that gs is not finding a dynamic library. Console reports: dyld: Library not loaded: ./bin/../sobin/libgs.8.70.dylib I tried to soft link from lib (which contains the dyld) to sobin, but that still didn't work. gs also failed from command line. However, if I did this in bash: export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Applications/_AudioMusicRelated/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH Then the gs would work from the commmand line. But I can't find a way to tell LyX to set up the DYLD_LIBRAY_PATH for calling gs. I'm assuming that this is a bug in lilypond distribution, so I submitted a bug to them. Other ideas? Thanks! henry On Dec 4, 2010, at 9:53 AM, Henry Flurry wrote: OK - got a bit further! Changing the path variable didn't do it. Reviewing old emails again, I see that the PATH variable can be set in the shell OR in the Lyx - Preferences - Paths - PATH Prefix THEN, you need to do: Lyx - Reconfigure (This was a step I was missing for a while.) NOW, the lilypond example loads up without complaint. BUT, I get an Apple app crash panel with the following error: gs cannot be opened because of a problem with some problem details looking like: Process: gs [6477] Path: /Applications/_AudioMusicRelated/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gs Identifier: gs Version: ???

This type of crash will come up when I: View - DVI View - HTML View - OpenDocument However, the following work fine: View - PDF Now it sounds like there is a problem with lilypond's gs itself. Would you agree? (I just upgraded lilypond OS X to 2.13.41-1, and the same symptoms occur.) Thoughts? Thanks!

Re: how to get half-bar used in Bach Music?
just want to let you know there was a typo in the snippet that i just caught.
The function works great and the thinner half bar looks more like the one
Bach's wrote.
What about adding this snippet in the doc about bar lines?
Would it be possible to do the BarLine override every other bar automatically?

thanks all for your help. Browsing the lilypond doc I have stumbled upon the
section on the Gregorian notation and what do i find? a half-bar!
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/Typesetting-Gregorian-chant.html#Divisiones
I tried to use it but apparently it is a breath mark and as such the bar line
are also printed.
I found an old post asking the question how to override the bar line with a
snippet that is supposed to work but i get errors on 2.13.38
http://osdir.com/ml/lilypond-user-gnu/2009-06/msg00299.html
\version 2.12.2
divisioMaior = {
\once \override Score.BarLine #'stencil = #ly:breathing- sign::divisio-maior
}
\relative c' {
c2 d \divisioMaior
e f \divisioMaior
g4 a b2 \divisioMaior
c1 \divisioMaior
}

Ok here's another ugly hack:
example
#(define __x 1)
{
\override Staff . BarLine #'bar-size = #(lambda (G) (set! __x (1+
__x)) (+ 2 (* 2 (modulo __x 2
\relative c'' { c1 c c c c }
}
/example
It's ugly because it uses a `global' variable __x to count the bars
and set the bar size to 2 only after an odd number of bars. It screws
up if you try to use it with more staffs.
If someone who knows the inner workings of scheme in Lilypond reads
this, I would like to know
how to properly access the current bar number in the callback!???

I've just been struggling with this too. All else having failed, I faked
it by using an invisible bar line and adding:
\once \override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(-1 . 3.5) c8_\markup {
\musicglyph #rests.M2mensural }
Woah, that's some ugly hack...
Again, I don't see the need for this - I just tested the following, and it
works just perfect for me (use \halfBar to make a real bar line at the end
of a measure appear smaller, and \halfAddBar to insert a fake barline of
half the usual extent). If it doesn't in your setting, could you give a
small compiling example to show the problem?
halfBar = \once \override Staff . BarLine #'bar-size = #2
halfAddBar = { \halfBar \bar | }
\relative c' {
c4 c \halfAddBar c c \halfBar |
c c c c |
}
