Re: Lyrics to second voice messes up following measure
- Original Message - From: Philipp Legrum philipp.leg...@googlemail.com To: lilypond-user@gnu.org Sent: Sunday, February 22, 2015 4:03 PM Subject: Lyrics to second voice messes up following measure Hello fellow LilyPonders, yesterday I stumbled over a problem involving lyrics assigned to a (cue) voice in a bivocal measure. Assigning a syllable to the *last note* of the bivocal measure messes up the subsequent monovocal measure (and all subsequent ones). Since I am a lilypond beginner, it's likely I am missing the obvious here. Lilyponds behaviour, however, seems illogical to me and cumbersome to work around. I boiled down the behaviour to an attached 10-line example: Add another syllable to the lyrics (line 6) and watch the note in the following measure disappear. Can somebody help me out here? Thanks a lot in advance, Phil I think this is a known (very old) bug: http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=127 I use a fairly horrible workaround: \new CueVoice = cue {d'2 d'2*1/2 \hideNotes d'4 \unHideNotes} The *1/2 halves the effective musical length of the note, allowing me to slip in a hidden note of half the length. This has no lyric and so corrects the problem with the main voice. -- Phil Holmes ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Since I am a lilypond beginner, it's likely I am missing the obvious here. Lilyponds behaviour, however, seems illogical to me and cumbersome to work around. Not really. In general \addlyrics doen't work properly in more complex situations, at least far too often. \addlyrics is a short-cut, you pay for it with a lot of drawbacks. I'd avoid the use of it in all but the most simplest cases.

Thanks a lot in advance, Phil How about the following (some comments inline): \version 2.18.2 \new Staff { \new Voice = main { R1 } \new CueVoice = cue { d'2 d'2 } %% let Voice named main continue \context Voice = main{ d'4 e' f' g' } } %% sets lyrics on different level: %\new Lyrics \lyricsto cue { \set fontSize = #-3 A B } %\new Lyrics \lyricsto main { la le li lo } %% If you want the Lyrics on same line use: %\new Lyrics = lyr \lyricsto cue { \set fontSize = #-3 A B } %\context Lyrics = lyr \lyricsto main { \unset fontSize la le li lo } %% Or: \new Lyrics \lyricsto cue { \set fontSize = #-3 A \set associatedVoice = #main B \unset fontSize la le li lo } HTH, Harm ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Fixed ledger line width with no dimension.
Hi All, Please find herewith my last attempt to reach a kind of modern and easy gregorian notation (see previous discussion here : http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/kind-of-gregorian-moving-noteheads-tc170995.html and here : http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Hungarian-Gregorian-tc171130.html). And I'm stucked for some days now: Since note heads should stick together, ledger lines desapear (or are hidden by the note heads, see attached pic). So I'm looking for a way to fix the leger line length without any dimension so that no gap would remain.

Re: Spacing Cheat Sheet
Noeck wrote Sunday, February 22, 2015 9:05 PM I would also be interested in how the stretchability value is used. I assumed it would be someting like \vfill in LaTeX, in this case only the relative value with respect to other spacings would be significant – i.e. the available extra space would be shared in proportions of the stretchability of the spacings. But this was just a guess. I think that is right. The Notation Reference says: stretchability – a unitless measure of the dimension’s relative propensity to stretch. If zero, the distance will not stretch (unless collisions would result). When positive, the significance of a particular dimension’s stretchability value lies only in its relation to the stretchability values of the other dimensions. For example, if one dimension has twice the stretchability of another, it will stretch twice as easily.
