Re: Feedback Request for Music Fonts

2014-10-14 Thread Noeck
Hi Abraham,

 YES!, this can be done quite easily. As I explained on my personal
 website (the link is found near the bottom of fonts.openlilylib.org),
 
 https://sites.google.com/site/tisimst/Home/custom-font-how-to#localized-font-changes
 

That's great! That's what I meant for this kind of task.

 THE KIND-OF-CAVEAT
 …
 The reason this isn't a great way to change the font globally is because
 it doesn't catch every layout object. You have to add additional \layout
 overrides to DynamicText, Fingering, Script, TrillSpanner, and a host of
 other layout objects in order to get everything. 

Yes, it could be easier. But I didn't expect it to be easy after what I
have seen in the smufl commands. So your solution is just what I was
looking for. And if I have done it once, I can easily do it for all new
fonts.

Cheers,
Joram

Re: Contemporary Music Notation

2014-10-14 Thread Piaras Hoban
Thanks for all the interest!

I would hope to make whatever might be useful to others available. It would
be great to let other people work on this code as I'm sure much of it could
be improved.

Thus far this code has only been for my purposes so it is only designed to
work in the musical situations I encountered in my own work or study. It
would be amazing to see how (and if) it could be furthered with help from
the lilypond community.

As a starter, the main issue with a lot of these techniques at the moment
regards how line breaks are dealt with. Very often I'm using a custom
stencil to override the Glissando.stencil. Finding a smart way to split a
stencil would be a big step forward...

all the best,

piaras

 Hi all,

 I'm a bit late to the party here but hope I can contribute something.

 About two years ago I made the switch to using Lilypond exclusively as I
 was getting tired of exporting pdfs with basic music notation and
 overlaying graphics in Illustrator or some such. This was a real pain when
 doing parts or making even the smallest of changes. Since then I've used
 lilypond for a lot of pieces, all of which have some idiosyncratic
 notational devices. There's very little I haven't been able to implement
 successfully in lilypond (really just 1 thing that still evades me...
 customised barlines aligning with first beat of a measure...).

 I thought it might be interesting for those wondering what's possible in
 lilypond to see some examples from the field. I've put together a page
 collating those things I've done in the past year or so. Many of these
 notational devices seem to be fairly standardized nowadays; or at least the
 symbols appear consistently, even if the interpretation of their meaning
 can vary a lot.

 It would be great to develop a contemporary notation library for lilypond
 making these notations readily available to any user, I'm not sure what
 that would involve but I know it could be a major selling point for
 lilypond in the contemporary music world.

 For completeness sake here's index of what you see in the linked PDF
 (naturally eveything you see here is generated using lilypond alone):

 1) Split-stem chords/clusters
 2) Stemmed glissando
 3) Bezier glissando w/arrowhead
 4) Variable width bezier glissando
 5) Vibrato with variable/random period and slope
 6) Interruptive polyphony
 7) Lachenmann pressed bow
 8) Billone beat notation
 9) Pencil line emulation (after Charlie Sdraulig)
 10) Sciarrino style jet-whistle
 11) Woodwind fingering staff
 12) Carin Levine style flute multiphonics
 13) Klavierstuck X proof-of-concept
 14) Sciarrino tremolo (with bezier hairpins)
 15) Stockhausen cluster-glissando
 16) Notation from a work of my own for violin

 Hope this might be illuminating for others; lilypond is great for this
 kind of stuff.

 best wishes,

  A nice thing about LilyPond's approach is that once you have invented
  something you can make it available as a command so it can easily be
  reused. You can also make such commands process arguments so they can be
  versatile and context-dependent.
  As an example have a look at the attached image. This is what someone on

  write a stemmed glissando notation. The underlying function is quite
  complicated but you can use it by simply writing
 
  \stemmedGlissando #'(15 . #f) c'4
 
  to tell LilyPond that the next glissando will have 15 stems and no (the
  #f) trailing grace note to indicate the target note.

Re: Automatic ottava handling

2014-10-14 Thread David Bellows
Wow! It works perfectly! I am officially replacing my software method with
your Lilypond approach. Not only does it do everything I wanted but it has
better fined-grained control since it uses ledger lines and not octave
markings (like mine does). And it's got to be more efficient than mine (I
had to create two separate loops outside the main Lilypond generating loop
to handle both the treble and the bass). It's a superior solution all the
way around.

I've attached the same Lilypond file that I used yesterday and you can see
that it handles everything just like I wanted. Amazing!

Thank you very much!

 OK, I've now played around with it and it works very nicely and will be
 easy to integrate into my software. You've already put a lot of work into
 this so I hate to point out any of my peculiar preferences, but just in
 case you feel like putting even more time into it here they are:

 1. Add the 15va/vb marking as well.


 Done.


 2. I'm not sure what standard practice is but you'll see in the score
 that my software produces it does not extend the ottava marking over rests.
 My music tends to have a lot of rests (a consequence of how it
 automatically changes staves) so it has a big effect on the overall look.


 Fixed.

 Standard practice is that an ottava should extend across rests if the note
 afterwards takes the ottava, too.  If the rest is sufficiently long, the
 ottava is broken.

 I've incorporated the behavior you like, but I definitely believe that
 there should be a choice for the user to extend across rests.  The function
 ought to be able to detect whether the ottava can extend: there are rests
 of sufficient length and the note after the rest needs the ottava.

 Under no circumstances should an ottava end over a rest, like you see on
 the version of your piece using \ottavate!



 3. Change the text. In my score I just use 8 and 15 which given how
 crowded the score gets at times makes a big difference.


 It turns out that \set Staff.ottavation = #8 and the like have to be
 used after \ottava #1, so I had to work it into the function.

 In the future I could add an argument to the \ottavate to allow user
 variations--like 8b, for example.  Right now, I hardcoded 8 and 15,
 as in your score.

 You select the version--default or short names--with a boolean value--that
 is ##t (short), ##f (default).


 %%%
 USAGE NOTES:

 Take the following example:

 musOne = \relative c''' {
   \clef treble
   g2 a b c d e f g a b c d e f g a b c d e f g
 }

 {
   \ottavate #'(4 . 7) #'(-3 . -6) ##t \musOne
 }

 ##t selects the shortened names 8 and 15

 (4 . 7) specifies the range for 8: any note having 4-7 ledger lines
 (inclusive) gets an 8.  Anything above this will get 15.

 (-3 . -6) specifies the range for 15: here the range is 3-6 ledger
 lines.  I like the negative numbers because they are visually more
 expressive, though of course, there's no sense to negative numbers of
 ledger lines

 Chords are assigned ottavas based on the average of the ledger-line count
 of their constituent notes.  I'm sure there's a better algorithm.  If
 you're more mathematically able than me, please feel free to suggest
 something a bit more elegant :)

 In the future, there ought to be some analysis of groups of notes.  So,
 for example, an out-of-range note within a group of notes receiving an
 ottava doesn't break the line.  But I'd like to make sure what I have now
 works before I start enhancing it.


 Thanks again for the work you've put into this!


 You're very welcome.

Trouble with fonts on Linux

2014-10-14 Thread Jon Arnold
Hi-

I'm working on a piece for handbells and needed to borrow some articulation 
marks from (gasp) a Finale font.

I have the font in my ~/.fonts directory, have refreshed my cache, and can 
use it in other programs (LibreOffice, etc.). The font also shows up with 
lilypond -dshow-available-fonts x

I am trying to call it in this way:

gyro = \markup {
  \fontsize #4 \override #'(font-name . Finale Percussion) { ! }
}

This works on Windows, but does not seem to work on Linux despite the font 
showing up with the above command.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

On Tue, Oct 14, 2014 at 1:57 AM, Janek Warchoł


 What i find most fascinating about your work is that you say this
 after already making the function quite intelligent :)


I appreciate that, but I'd like to have some sort of analysis of context,
so you wouldn't end up shutting it off for inconvenient results.

For example, compare the results of this:

{
  \ottavate #'(4 . 7) #'(-3 . -6) ##t {
\relative c {
  c16 c, c' c c c, c' c
}
  }
}

with the much more readable:

{
  \relative c {
  \ottava #1 c16 c, c' c c c, c' c
}
}

But maybe this is an enhancement which could come later?

BTW, I've verified that you can do overrides of individual brackets.  You
just don't have the benefit of \ottava #1 and the like in the ly file to
tell you where to put them.

Re: automatic fingering annotation

2014-10-14 Thread erik flister
thanks a lot david, i learned a lot from studying this!

looks like there would be two options to get lilypond to report pitch info:

\void \displayLilyMusic   % types absolute pitches to console
\include event-listener.ly  % writes file w/midi numbers

but your example inspired me to figure it out in scheme, see attached.  i
would think auto-fingering-diagrams would be of general interest -- is it
worth submitting either to the snippet library or the core scm library?
some questions:
- how could i pass an argument to the engraver (like 'recorder, to tell it
what diagrams to use)?
- i can't find doc on make-engraver -- are there any?
- this method ignored the layout overrides i need (that worked on manually
entered markups):
  TextScript.staff-padding
  TextScript.self-alignment-X
  how do i get them back?
- i like your 'display-fingering property, but i removed it for simplicity
while trying to learn, i'll add it back...

i also found
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/learning/advanced-tweaks-with-scheme,
which seems like it should also work and is simpler than defining a new
engraver.  however, i can't figure out how to find the right
object/property to give a note/column a markup.  NoteHead.text doesn't do
anything.  where do i look this up?

ancillary layout q's:
- getting the diagrams to line up looks impossible -- staff-padding isn't
general enough -- woodwind diagrams are tall, of variable height, and their
reference point is typically at their bottom.  can staff-padding be
sensitive to variable heights and appropriate for either above/below the
staff?  also, there seems to be no way to account for staff objects that
extend beyond the anticipated amount.  why not be able to assign objects to
arbitrary groupings, and then apply justification/alignment rules to those
groups?  this could lead to contradictory constraints, but that could just
be an error.

- it took me a while to realize i had to set TextScript.staff-padding, not
some other object like DynamicLineSpanner (which
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/learning/fixing-overlapping-notation#the-staff_002dpadding-property
suggests works even for non-spanning objects
) -- where are objects/properties comprehensively listed?

- why can't i \context {\Score staff-padding = #5}?

- self-alignment-X is behaving strangely -- on the first line, the diagrams
align to the left note in a chord, but to the right note on subsequent
lines.  why?

- i can't find anything along the lines
of VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-unrelatedstaff-spacing that will give me
additional spacing between lines, and the diagrams are crowding the next
line.  where do i look this up?

- and of course, if anyone can help me figure out why that 1h
('half-covered') works for eg flute, but not on my recorder thumb :(

thanks alot for the help!

I don’t get this behaviour (in 2.19.13).
How do you playback the MIDI file? Are the metronome-notes actually in the

 would think auto-fingering-diagrams would be of general interest -- is it
 worth submitting either to the snippet library or the core scm library?


I think this would be a great idea.


 some questions:
 - how could i pass an argument to the engraver (like 'recorder, to tell it
 what diagrams to use)?


Add a parameter to the engraver:

autoFingerEngraver=
#(lambda (instrument)
  (lambda (context)
(make-engraver
  (acknowledgers
((note-column-interface trans grob source)
 (let* ((cause (event-cause grob))
(p (get-fingering (ly:pitch-semitones
(ly:event-property cause 'pitch)
  (if (not (null? p))
(ly:grob-set-property! (ly:engraver-make-grob trans
'TextScript cause) 'text
  #{ \markup \woodwind-diagram #instrument #p #}

Then you would call it later like this:

 \consists #(autoFingerEngraver 'recorder)

- i can't find doc on make-engraver -- are there any?


No, unfortunately not.  You can find some material on C++ engravers in the
Contributor's Guide, but nothing on Scheme engravers.  There are a few in
the LSR, and they surface from time to time on the lists.


 - this method ignored the layout overrides i need (that worked on manually
 entered markups):
   TextScript.staff-padding
   TextScript.self-alignment-X
   how do i get them back?


Unfortunately, I'm not going to be able to help at the moment.  Your
recorder diagrams are still in review, and I find it very difficult to work
with your file in LilyDev.  I'll be happy to take another look when your
patch is part of a release.


 - i like your 'display-fingering property, but i removed it for simplicity
 while trying to learn, i'll add it back...

 i also found
 http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/learning/advanced-tweaks-with-scheme,
 which seems like it should also work and is simpler than defining a new
 engraver.


I used a Scheme engraver because it gives easy access to context
properties, and it's straightforward to create new grobs.

Possibly you could do this through a music function.  See the thread on
Handling automatic ottavas for an example of something similar.

I have to say that, given a choice, I'd rather use an engraver given the
complexity of fiddling around with music lists. :)


 however, i can't figure out how to find the right object/property to give
 a note/column a markup.  NoteHead.text doesn't do anything.  where do i
 look this up?


Well, you could override NoteColumn.stencil.  Here's a short example:

\version 2.19.15

#(define (notehead-stencil grob)
   (ly:stencil-aligned-to
(ly:stencil-translate-axis
 (grob-interpret-markup grob #{ \markup foo #})
 3 Y)
X CENTER))

{
  \override NoteColumn.stencil = #notehead-stencil
  c'' e'' c' e' c''' e'''
}

The example shows the big limitation here, which is that no notice at all
is taken of collisions.

I'll take a better look later, but I hope this is helpful.

 i.e., it sounds like a 4-beat metronome.  Here I am using toml only because I 
 don't know what percussion instrument is actually involved.
 
 What might be the explanation for this?  and how to stop it?
 
 I don’t get this behaviour (in 2.19.13).
 How do you playback the MIDI file? Are the metronome-notes actually in the 
 MIDI file, or does your MIDI player software maybe have a metronome activated?

Thanks for the information.  I was using a midi player called Sweet Midi 
Player.  I recompiled my problem file with lilypond v2.18.2 and found that I 
still had the problem.  Then I played both midi's with QuickTime 7; there was 
no problem.

Futher investigation showed that Sweet Midi Player did have an option to output 
metronome clicks on channel 10, and that it was enabled.  I disabled it and the 
problem disappeared.

Unexpected behaviour of script-stencil-hack

2014-10-14 Thread Thomas Morley
Hi folks,

consider the following code.



\version 2.19.13
%\version 2.16.0

add-to-script =
#(define-event-function (parser location mrkp music)(markup? ly:music?)
  #{
\tweak #'stencil

 X
 RIGHT
 (grob-interpret-markup grob (markup #:normal-text mrkp))
 0)))
$music
  #})

{ c''1 \add-to-script \markup x \trill }



Hacking Script 'stencil I add markup to the default-stencil. Works as expected.

Though, regard the local binding for X-offset.
With 2.19.13:
Commenting it will center the whole new Script-stencil above the parent.
Uncomment it and you see the default Script-glyph in unchanged
position and the additions right to it.

That's unexpected, at least for me and doesn't happen with 2.16 (don't
have 2.18 on this machine)

Why does this happen? X-offset is _never_ called in the body!
Shouldn't be the new stencil always be centered, because self-alignment-X is 0?
I would expect a different alignment only, if I change the values for
X-offset and/or self-alignment-X myself.

Try this:

 add-to-script =
#(define-event-function (parser location mrkp music)(markup? ly:music?)
   #{
 \tweak #'stencil
 #(lambda (grob)
(let (
   (X-offset-data (ly:grob-property-data grob 'X-offset))

   (ly:script-interface::print grob)

   RIGHT
   (grob-interpret-markup grob (markup #:normal-text mrkp))
   0)))
 $music
   #})

{ c''1 \add-to-script \markup x \trill }

grob-property-data returns what Script.X-offset is set to in the immutable
property alist (what you see listed in scm/define-grobs, namely,
script-interface::calc-X-offset ).  ly:grob-property actually runs
script-interface::calc-X-offset on the grob.

If you assign X-offset-data _after_ X-offset, both will return the
calculated value, because ly:grob-property-data checks the mutable
properties alist first for X-offset, where the results of the calculation
are now stored.

You can see what's going on in lily/grob-property.cc.

And why it does not happen with 2.16?


Don't know why there's a difference.  I wonder if Janek's work relates to
this.



  If you define X-offset
  using ly:grob-property-data you'll see no change.

It's not much (in keeping with the brevity there), but I think the
callbacks are processed should be mentioned.

suppressing header info in bookparts

2014-10-14 Thread Flaming Hakama by Elaine
First of all, thanks to Simon for answering my previous question about how
to get a split centered title in the running header.  My adaptation of his
solution is included below.

Next, I am trying to use bookpart to separate songs in a multi-song book.
The title of the piece remains the same, and I am using subtitle to
identify each song.

The problem I now have is in subsequent book parts, the headers are
printing twice:
  1) Once is the running header, which works as intended.
  2) Then the header for the song (bookpart) is printed, which includes
title, subtitle, poet, composer and arranger.

Really, all I want is to print from the normal header is the subtitle.

Here is what I have tried:
  o Setting arranger to  is fine that does not need to get printed again.
  o Setting title to  is fine since the value used in the running header
uses fixed variables (not the dynamic context variables like \fromproperty
#'header:title)
  o But for poet and composer, I either get the double printing, or if I
set poet and composer to , they do not get printed in either the running
header nor the bookpart header.

So, my question boils down to: Is there a way to suppress printing of the
poet and composer in a bookpart header (without setting the values to )?

Thanks.  Here is my example:

Anyone have experience with PDF/A-1b?

2014-10-14 Thread Vaughan McAlley
Hi,

I want to try to produce PDF/A-1b files from Lilypond to submit to the
Australian Music Centre (australianmusiccentre.com.au). It looks like it
would be possible to do this by exporting to Postscript and using
Ghostscript:

http://www.ghostscript.com/doc/9.14/Ps2pdf.htm#PDFA

Has anyone done this and have any tips or pitfalls before I start on this
journey myself?

Vaughan

PS Here are the Australian Music Centre guidelines about file formats. I
think they just want to be able to open the file in Finale or Sibelius, and
save them as PDF with their PDF/A1-b -compliant process.

 The AMC's order of preference for file formats is as follows:

1. *Sibelius* or *Finale* files.
These files are preferred as they can be used to generate the
highest-quality archival production masters.

*Non-standard fonts*: the AMC has access to a wide library of fonts.
For Finale files AMC staff use the 'Data Check' function to identify any
missing fonts and we will follow up with you should there be any issues. If
you are a Sibelius user and are concerned about non-standard fonts, please
use the notes box at the bottom of this page and staff will consult with
you to ensure the appearance of your score is as you intend.

*Layout concerns*: to ensure there is no discrepancy in the layout of
your score when it is processed by the AMC, we firstly require that you use
one of the AMC's supported paper sizes: A4, A3 or B4-JIS. Secondly, we
recommend that you use Finale's 'Lock systems' or Sibelius's 'Lock format'
functions to prevent the programs from reconfiguring the layout when the
file is opened on the AMC's computers.

2. *PDF/A-1b* files.
If you are unable to provide Finale or Sibelius files, but do have the
ability to provide us with PDF/A-1b files, this is the AMC's second
preferred submission method.

PDF/A-1b is an archival version of the PDF file format designed to
ensure consistent reproduction of a file's contents across different
computers over time. All score materials processed by the AMC are
eventually stored as PDF/A-1b files. Production of PDF/A-1b files is a
fairly complex process and any submitted files must be validated by AMC
staff as compliant.

3. *PDF* files.
As a last resort, we will accept submissions of regular PDF files.

This method should be avoided wherever posible as it presents the
greatest difficulty in generating high-quality archival production masters.
Materials submitted in this way will often have to be physically printed
off and scanned - resulting in a loss in quality.



 Frequently Asked Questions
 *I don't use Finale or Sibelius - why don't you accept more formats?*
 Unfortunately the AMC does not have resources to purchase (and keep
 updated) copies, and train staff in all software packages which are
 available on the market to produce score materials. Finale and Sibelius are
 used by the vast majority of our repesented artists and this is why we
 accept materials in these file formats.

Re: extending event-listener.ly

2014-10-14 Thread flip
It looks like this patch never made it into the current development
repository (or it got put into some place I couldn't find it). I've manually
tweaked my event-listener.ly for now, but wondered if this just sort of got
mis-placed. We need to output some drum part events for some experiments
we're doing. Any plans to integrate this into the main branches?


At some point I need to customize the drum MIDI stuff a bit. I have a
collection of percussion sounds that I need to custom-map, etc. Slowly
learning...

Fwd: Text alignment

2014-10-14 Thread Marco Bagolin
Hi all,
I can not reproduce the attached Sample1.png.
The best result I obtained is the  attached MySample1.png  with the
following code:

\version 2.18.2
\relative c''
{e1 \trill \p \ |
 b'1 \trill|
 e b1
  \trill
  ^\markup {\tiny \italic \halign #2 \raise #1.5 div.}
  ^\markup {\tiny (both trill)}
   
 {b1 \trill}
 \\
 {\set Staff.ottavation = #Half 8va (opt.)
  \hideNotes
b4 b b b
  \unset Staff.ottavation
 }
   
R1\!
}

but text (both trill) is not aligned with the trill symbol and Half
8va(opt.) font is bigger than the others.
I tried some ways, but I don't understand where is my mistake.

Please, can anyone help me?

Thank you in advance at all

Regards
Marco B.

Re: suppressing header info in bookparts

2014-10-14 Thread Helge Kruse
Hello Flaming Hakama,

I did this with a small piece of Scheme.

%% Bookpart first page and last page predicates
#(define (not-part-first-page layout props arg)
   (if (= (chain-assoc-get 'page:page-number props -1)
  (ly:output-def-lookup layout 'first-page-number))
   empty-stencil
   (interpret-markup layout props arg)))

\paper {
print-page-number = ##t
print-first-page-number = ##f
oddHeaderMarkup = \markup {
\on-the-fly #print-page-number-check-first
\fill-line {
\on-the-fly #not-part-first-page \fromproperty #'header:poet
\line {
\titleLeft
\titleKern
\emDash
\pageNumberKern
\lower #0.55 \fontsize #6 \fromproperty
#'page:page-number-string
\pageNumberKern
\emDash
\titleKern
\titleRight
}
\on-the-fly #not-part-first-page \fromproperty #'header:composer
}
}
evenHeaderMarkup = \oddHeaderMarkup
oddFooterMarkup = \markup { \fill-line { \fromproperty
#'header:copyright } }
evenFooterMarkup = \oddFooterMarkup
}

how to automatically left-align rehearsal marks at the beginning of a line

2014-10-14 Thread user3871075
Hello,

I occasionally have a rehearsal mark fall on the first measure of a line,
and I have to manually make it left-aligned so it will print.  (I use small
margins.)  However, then I have more manual work if the music layout
changes enough that the rehearsal mark is no longer on the first measure of
the line.  I typically wait until the very end to do manual layout tweaks
to minimize issues like this, but it would be nice not to have to do them
at all.

Here's a snippet which shows the problem in an extreme way:

\relative c'' {
  c1 \mark \markup this should be left aligned | \break c1
}

Is there a setting somewhere for this?

Note: I don't want all rehearsal marks left-aligned - just the ones that
happen to fall at the beginning of a line.

The same question could be asked about rehearsal marks that are at the end
of a line.  Although the importance is much lower since AFAIK manual
tweaking is usually necessary to even get a rehearsal mark at the end of a
line.

Thanks for your help!

-Russ
