I would much rather code in concert pitches.
What I was suggesting, and what I put into the example, had all the typed input
in concert pitch.
By saying reedPlayer stores written pitches, I meant only that the
\transpose{...} operations, to tell LilyPond which notes should be printed at which
transposition, were included in the variable reedPlayer.
Still, I think I must be missing something fundamental… It really seems to me
that \addInstrumentDefinition already has [almost?] everything we need: the
shortInstrumentName is there, the clef is there (in case a change is needed),
the cue name is there, the transposition is there, etc.
So what is stopping us from making something very similar to the OP’s original
code Do The Right Thing™?
LilyPond has the information, but it takes some work to teach her to
consistently use it differently than she does now, and differently than the
original poster still wants her to.
You could try the attached modification (to avoid transposition of cues) of
Jan-Peter's method.
LilyPond transposes your input by 'instrumentTransposition when generating cue
notes, so leave instrumentTransposition at its default.
Instead, the attached engraver uses a new property 'printTransposition to shift
your concert-pitch input to printed pitches. Key-signature changes are not
always appropriate, but you can type \key\default to reprint the current
key-signature and have it transposed for the instrument.
(This second *-Transposition setting would be confusing to new users of
LilyPond, so any real patch would require re-writing some internals of LilyPond
so we can select the desired behavior using just the old
'instrumentTransposition to describe the instrument pitch.)

Re: Staccato
Dear Cynthia, The rules about articulation placement are solidly established and differ depending on whether a staff has a single voice or two. The extract you quoted from Read is the rule as it applies to a single voice. When two voices share a staff the articulation placement is reversed (think about what would happen when both voices have articulations - they would all end up in the middle of the staff if placed on the notehead side, which would be very difficult to read). I would be very surprised if Read neglected to mention this exception to the rule, so maybe it's worth rereading to double check. My library has this book in storage, so it will be a number of days before I can check myself.

LilyPond only supports arranging the elements of a chord symbol (Root Name, attributes, bass-inversion) in a fixed way, taking up an elegant amount of space between these parts. For a compact chord symbol (for display on a hand-held device) these need to be arranged to take up less horizontal space. The patch currently waiting to make it into LilyPond does that.

Re: Double thin bar lines and repeats?
thomasmorle...@gmail.com:
Well, _every_ BarLine has some settings in the definition how to
behave mid-line, line-begin, line-end and for the span-bar-type.
Ah. That does make sense. I'm discovering stuff by the minute. :-)
\bar || doesn't print a bar-line at line-begin (see bar-line.scm)
Ack!
The \repeat construct uses the value from 'startRepeatType' (see
engraver-init.ly) as starting repeat-sign, default and fall-back is
.|: (see repeat-acknowledge-engraver.cc and look up how .|: is
defined in bar-line.scm)
Umm ... indeed. :-)
While inputting
\bar || \break \repeat volta ...
you have two _conflicting_ settings at the _same_ musical moment.
One will override the other.
Clean sollution is to define a BarLine which has the settings you
prefer. This is done already with the predefined .|:-|| (again, see
bar-line-scm).
Only thing I don't fully understand, why does || wins?
I'd expect the .|: to be printed.
To answer my own question:
In repeat-acknowledge-engraver.cc is a comment and code:
/*
We only set the barline if we wouldn't overwrite a previously set
barline.
*/
SCM wb = get_property (whichBar);
SCM db = get_property (defaultBarType);
if (!scm_is_string (wb) || ly_is_equal (db, wb))
{
if (s != || (volta_found !scm_is_string (wb)))
context ()-set_property (whichBar, ly_string2scm (s));
}
}
Although I don't know C++, it seems to be pretty clear what happens
A warm thanks for sharing your expertise! This is really appreciated,
even if I don't penetrate all the details ... yet. :-)

Reading your code, seems like it was just a convenience function for

Got me to the density I was looking for.

It's interesting (frustrating?) that the documentation on changing

Hi Cynthia,
You must have an intimate knowledge of LP source code to be able to
say that.
to be honest, it’s not intimate knowledge of LP source code. I write
my approach (what I did) here, perhaps it is helpful for you or someone
else:
1. Such things can almost always be changed via the right \override
command. So I need to know what to override.
2. From doing this: http://joramberger.de/files/lilypond_visualindex.pdf
I had in mind that all articulations are a »Script« and that there is a
category (graphical object) called »Dots« for augmentation dots (see the
Voice line in this pdf).
3. I tested if that is true with this small code:
{ b'4. b'8-. \dotsDown b'4. b'8-. }
This confirms that \dotsDown acts on augmentation dots.
= \override Scripts and then?
4. To find the override for staccatos, I tried to find the property of
Script that specifies the direction. I used the Frescobaldi autocomplete
and typed \override Script. and Ctrl+Space which showed me
that there is a property called direction, which sounds good.
I could also have clicked on the word 'Script' in the pdf above, which
would have brought me to:
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/internals/script
Where direction is also mentioned.
= \override Scripts.direction = and then?
5. Then I knew that there are the scheme entities #UP, #DOWN, #LEFT,
#RIGHT. This brought me to:
\override Script.direction = #DOWN

that's why the dots are weird (excuse the typo in my original

O... would indeed multiply the duration of O by 15/8, but
O:. is intended to multiply the duration of O by 9/4 ( i.e. O. + ..)

\instrumentSwitch cl Bflat \bar||\key\default
g'4 b' d'' fis'' R1
\instrumentSwitch flute \bar||\key\default
g'4 b' d'' fis'' R1 }
global = { \key g\major s1*4 }
\new Staff \with { \printTransposition }
\new Voice \global \part
This is really great, IMO!
So…
1. What do others think?
2. What would be required so that the \bar ||” \key \default stuff could be
avoided (e.g., could be abstracted either in the global, or somewhere better)?
Because right now, writing
\new Staff \with { \printTransposition } \new Voice \global \part
\new Staff \new Voice \global \part
one gets [as expected] the key signature(s) unnecessarily reprinted at each
switch point in the second (concert) score.
3. In a perfect world, either \instrumentSwitch would take two music
expressions (i.e., one for the “prep” period, one for the “playing” period), or
there would be an \instrumentPrep macro — primarily to deal with the markup
activities (e.g., “take clarinet”), but possibly for other things. Which do you
think is ultimately a better solution?
Thanks!
Kieren.

Hi Johan, As I understand, the compact chord names require a (otherwise harmless) change in one of lily's scm files. I don't know if this can be dealt with by pure inclusion of an .ily file.

RE: Quartet template with/without trills
I have used the tags 'trills and 'expand to produce scores
and midi.
However although the tags work OK when the music files are compiled
individually when using the score file below any music
identified by
'trills or 'expand is skipped. Am I missing a point here or is this
not possible?
\version 2.18.2
\include piece.ly
#(set-global-staff-size 14)
\score {
\new StaffGroup \keepWithTag #'score
\removeWithTag #'expand \music
\layout { }
}
\score {
\new StaffGroup \keepWithTag #'score
\removeWithTag #'trills \music
\midi{ }
}
keepWithTag #'score keeps untagged and score-tagged sections
and removes all other tagged sections. So you will loose
#'trills and #'expand.
What about:
score {
\new StaffGroup \keepWithTag #'(score trills expand)
\removeWithTag #'expand \music
layout { }
}
\score {
\new StaffGroup \keepWithTag #'(score trills expand)
\removeWithTag #'trills \music
\midi{ }
}
or even:
score {
\new StaffGroup \keepWithTag #'(score trills)
\music
layout { }
}
\score {
\new StaffGroup \keepWithTag #'(score expand)
\music
\midi{ }
}
Toine Schreurs
Thanks that worked a treat. I had not realised the way \keepWithTag worked or
that you could put all the tags in parentheses.

What do you think?
I guess it might also need a new name since it doesn't actually use
postscript anymore... There's probably more that could be done to make this
even more automagic, but I'm leaving it at this for now.

Thanks, Urs.
Reading your code, seems like it was just a convenience function for
setting SpacingSpanner.common-shortest-duration
Adding a simple:
\override Score.SpacingSpanner #'common-shortest-duration =
#(ly:make-moment 1 4)
Got me to the density I was looking for. (http://lilybin.com/qukbs5/3)
It's interesting (frustrating?) that the documentation on changing
horizontal spacing mentions setting base-shortest-duration to adjust
horizontal spacing (
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/changing-horizontal-spacing),
but in fact, it seems as though common-shortest-duration is the
variable
that really needs to be tweaked.

I've tried adding:
\override SpacingSpanner #'base-shortest-duration = #(ly:make-moment

But this seems to have no or only very little effect on the default
spacing, even with make-moment up to 2/1 or higher. For reference
I'd
like
the formatting to match something like this:
[image: Inline image 1]
I can get the desired result by adding a \noBreak at the end of
every

but that's very laborious and makes the .ly file quite a bit uglier.
(even using an alias like nb = { \noBreak })
Are there other tricks for very densely formatted scores?

Hi Abraham,
it's not that hard ;)
Though, one Problem might be a previous applied stencil-override...
The code below will return the name of the default and the actual

applied to a grob without 'stencil property

Re: Derive the correct print function of a grob
2015-01-20 22:30 GMT+01:00 tisimst tisimst.lilyp...@gmail.com:
Is it possible to derive the correct default print function for a grob?
For example, if I want to get the stencil of a hairpin, I know the function
is called ly:hairpin::print, but for accidentals, it's
ly:accidental-interface:print.
I'd like to be able to get the right one automatically (in scheme) without
needing to specify them all and use conditionals to figure out the right
one. Any suggestions? I'm not sure if this is even possible, and I can deal
with it if it's not, but I'd rather not if I can help it.
Thanks,
Abraham
Hi Abraham,
it's not that hard ;)
Though, one Problem might be a previous applied stencil-override...
The code below will return the name of the default and the actual
print-procedure.
\version 2.19.15
#(define new-stil
(lambda (grob)
(grob-interpret-markup grob xy)))
{
\override NoteHead.stencil = #new-stil
\override NoteHead.after-line-breaking =
#(lambda (grob)
(display \nactual-stencil:\t\t)
(display
(procedure-name
(assoc-get 'stencil
(ly:grob-basic-properties grob
(display \ndefault-stencil:\t)
(display
(procedure-name
(assoc-get 'stencil
(reverse (ly:grob-basic-properties grob)
)
c''1
}
HTH,
Harm

Matching backslash in Scheme string (escaping characters for LaTeX)
Hi all, I have a Scheme function that processes a string and writes the result to a LaTeX file. For this I have to escape a number of characters that are allowed in a LilyPond string but not in LaTeX input. Consider this code: \version 2.19.16 #(use-modules (ice-9 regex)) str = This should be \partcombine-d match everything ampString = \\ slashString = \\textbackslash #(set! str (regexp-substitute/global #f str 'pre ampString 'post)) #(set! str (regexp-substitute/global #f \\+ str 'pre slashString 'post)) #(ly:message ) #(ly:message str) #(ly:message ) The resulting output is This should be \partcombine-d \ match everything while I want to have This should be \textbackslash partcombine-d \ match everything. The escaping of the ampersand works as expected (although I have to define the replacement string in a LilyPond string while entering it directly as a string in the Scheme function doesn't seem to work), but the backslash is not matched. Using \ as regex obviously doesn't work because that would escape the quotation mark so the string isn't properly ended. Using \\ give the error Trailing backslash Using \\+ compiles but doesn't match the backslash. So what's the way to match a backslash in a LilyPond string? Additionally I'd be glad about comments to: - Which other characters would I have to escape when writing LaTeX code (so far I've encountered the backslash and the ampersand. But I'd feel better if I'd not just wait for errors ...)? - Is there a more efficient way to escape a number of characters than piping the string through a series of regex substitutions?

Re: Proposed changes to LSR Snippet 906
Hi Abraham, I played around with the contexts and some of the overrides for the SystemStartDelimiter, but I couldn't get something that worked to my satisfaction. Yeah, I remember it failing when I tried it way back then… something about not being able to get the big brace on the outside of the InstrumentName stack without knocking everything else out of alignment. =\ Kieren. ___ Kieren MacMillan, composer www: http://www.kierenmacmillan.info email: i...@kierenmacmillan.info ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
