I hope you simply didn't read Janek's comment carefully enough. The main 
point in his last sentence is not about the alternative but about an 
attitude of rejecting suggestions simply because one doesn't understand 
their use case. Which *is* off-putting in a non-constructive manner that 
can't really be justified with "defeding code".

Thumb in fret-diagram

2015-05-02 Thread Stephen MacNeil

Quick question how does one put a thumb in the fret-diagram fingering?
apparently it was added 4 years ago but i can't seem to figure it out. I
thought I could change mute string but it doesn't go below... that i can
figure. My markup is

 \fret-diagram #"6-1;5-3-3;4-3-4;3-2-2;2-1-1;1-o;"


Also i have to use 3 files to get control over distance of title
fret-diagram and score ... is there a better way?


1. score

2. fretboard-diagram

3. mix with header




\markup {\vspace #0.3 }

\include "Example-Chords.ly"

\markup {\vspace #2.5 }

\markup \halign #-19 \fontsize # -2.5 \lower #0 {"A band Name"}

\include "example.ly"

\header {

title = "Song Title"

subtitle = \markup \fontsize #-2.2 "Words and music by ..."

copyright = \markup \fontsize #-2.2 "©1999, Warner Bros."

tagline = ##f

}


here is my example

IMO it doesn't make sense to compare LilyPond to Linux kernel, because:
- people interested in contributing to kernel are experienced software
developers.  It makes sense to demand good coding style etc. from
seasoned pros, and tell them to go away if they cannot manage to write
well-structured code by themselves.  OTOH, LilyPond contributors are
often amateurs who need significant tutoring before their code is
well-written (that's not a problem at all, as they are all willing to
learn - but the community must not scare them away).
- there are so many people interested in working on kernel that even
if Linus offends 3/4 of them he'll still have enough left.
- actually a lot of kernel devs are employed by big companies to work
on kernel.  It's their job to cope with kernel community, however it
looks like.

Sorry… let me be more clear. I \include-d the edition-engraver, and compiled 
twice: once with an \editionMod to move the [initial] Clef, and once without. 
The first time, the Clef moved (as expected) and was coloured (as hoped); the 
second time, the Clef was neither moved nor coloured (both as expected).

HOWEVER, the console output was identical in both cases: the tweak was not 
recorded in the output (as I thought it should have been?).

Hope that helps.
Kieren.

p.s. Why not just download the edition engraver .zip file 
(https://github.com/openlilylib/openlilylib/archive/master.zip) and test things 
yourself? Here’s all you need to add:

1. At the top
\include "openlilylib-master/editorial-tools/edition-engraver/definitions.ily"
\addEdition test
\editionMod test 1 0/4 test.Score.A \once \override Score.Clef.extra-offset =

2. Somewhere else

Question about copyrights and licenses on the LSR

2015-05-02 Thread David Bellows

Hey all,

I'm trying get everything organized and altogether legal and
what-have-you with respect to my big music/software project the
Platonic Music Engine (www.platonicmusicengine.com) which means that I
need to make sure all the dependencies I'm using have the appropriate
license and copyright information.

I am using a few snippets hosted on the LSR but notice that at least
these don't have any copyright notices or licenses and I don't see
anything on the LSR about some general licensing thing that applies to
all the submissions.

So is there some blanket license involved? Is there any informed
opinion but if I even need to worry about it? Etc?

My software uses the Affero GPL, if that's helpful.

Another discovery is making me think that there is just no good way to
solve this problem.

Try:

 \colorOverride
{
  \override NoteHead.X-extent = #'(-1 . 1)
  \override NoteHead.font-size = 3
  \override NoteHead.stencil = #ly:note-head::print
  c1
  \revert NoteHead.X-extent
  c1
  \revert NoteHead.font-size
  c1
  \revert NoteHead.stencil
  c1
}

A single revert kills the color, even though two overrides are in effect.

Conversely. using \markAllAlteredGrobs (in color-tweaks2.y above, not to be
confused with colorTweaks2.ly), only the last \revert removes the color,
which is as it should be.

Try:

{
  \override NoteHead.X-extent = #'(-1 . 1)
  \override NoteHead.font-size = 3
  \override NoteHead.stencil = #ly:note-head::print
  c1
  \revert NoteHead.X-extent
  c1
  \revert NoteHead.font-size
  c1
  \revert NoteHead.stencil
  c1
}

\layout {
  \context {
\Score
\markAllAlteredGrobs
  }
}

I just don't think there is any way to do this perfectly.

Maybe I'll try an engraver, since it looks like we need live grobs (the
\markAllAlteredGrobs approach)

Hi,

this little (simplified) shell script (I have called it ly2pdf)

#!/bin/sh
INFILE="$1"
OUTFILE=${INFILE%.ly}.pdf
lilypond --ps -o $$ "$INFILE"
ps2pdf $$.ps "$OUTFILE"

demonstrates the kind of mechanism that LilyPond needs. (But without 
needing such a script). It fixes the "lines.ly" issue, and it fixes 
accidentally and brutally deleting an already existing .ps file.

I fixed this issue on my system by reverting to a previous version of

I tried reverting fontconfig from 2.11.93 to 2.11.1 and that didn't fix 
the problem with LilyPond on Fedora 22 for me. Instead it introduced new 
error messages.


IMO downgrading a component (even if it would work, which on my system it 
doesn't) is not a real bugfix, only a workaround. There is always the risk 
that downgrading a component solves one issue, but (re-)introduces other

I have LilyPond 2.19.19 working on Fedora 21 running without problems, and

I think we must be careful to keep different (LilyPond) issues that people 
are reporting here separate, if we are not really sure that they are in 
any way related. Or if weknow they are different issues.


I am summing up some of the issues I have seen in the list that we really 
should kee seperated for now:


- Fedora 21 vs Fedora 22
- Ghostscript 9.15 vs 9.16 in combination with LilyPond 2.19.19
- problems with new fontconfig
- Ghostscript using "lines.ps" from the Ghostscript search path instead of 
the filename specified when calling gs.
- LilyPond brutally overwrites an already existing .ps file when an 
.ly inputfile is used to create a .pdf file, (instead of 
properly creating a decent temporary filename)

- and now the issue from Andrew Bernard

These are really different subjects, that sometimes might, or might not,

I fixed this issue on my system by reverting to a previous version of
fontconfig (see the other post in the list that talks about F22, or my bug
report on the bug-list). What version of fontconfig are you using? I found
that reverting to 2.11.1 (the latest available on my system is 2.11.93)
fixed this issue. The command that's failing is 'gs', but that wasn't -- at
least for me -- the source of the failure.

Yes. I wasn't aware of this file being renamed (and I did not see this

Great work by the way! And yes quarter tones are possibly however It

Oh. I think I included the glyphs ¼ and so on but apparently, this is a

This never bothered me as I removed the tab

this is a "Band Aid" solution, basically it just adds whatever you put

tab, which is what was needed.

Aha.  So in the console do you see something like:


(make-music
  'ContextSpeccedMusic
  'create-new
  #t
  'property-operations
  (list (list 'push
  'NoteHead
  2
  'font-size))
  'context-type

  (make-music
'SequentialMusic
'elements
(list (make-music
'NoteEvent
'pitch
(ly:make-pitch 0 0)
'duration
(ly:make-duration 2)

%%%

If so, the edition engraver is doing the equivalent of:

\new Staff \with { \override NoteHead.font-size = 2 }
{
  c'
}

and I may be able to get at that through 'property-operations.

OK, why don't I just try the obvious?

To wit:

%%%

\colorOverride
{
  \tweak font-size 3
  c'1
  \tweak NoteHead.font-size 3
  \tweak Stem.thickness 2
  c'2
  
  <\tweak NoteHead.font-size 3 c' e'>1
  \override NoteHead.font-size = 4
  c'1
  \temporary \override NoteHead.font-size = 12
  c'1
  \revert NoteHead.font-size
  \revert Score.BarLine.X-extent
  \revert Staff.Clef.stencil
  \clef alto
  c'1
}

\layout {
  \context {
\Score {
  \colorOverride
  {
\override BarLine.X-extent = #'(-2 . 2)
  }
}
  }
  \context {
\Staff
\colorOverride
{
\override Clef.stencil =
#(lambda (grob)
   (ly:stencil-rotate (ly:clef::print grob) -15 0 0))
}
  }
}

%%%

Notice that the \revert-s in the music expression actually work on the
stuff from the context block.

The above code would work with the first approach, where \
markAllAlteredGrobs basically created a long series of \overrides of every
grob which might have a stencil.  This involved setting the
'after-line-breaking property of all such grobs to a callback which
examined the property lists of living, breathing grob instances to see if
anything had been added to the default property list stored in the global
variable all-grob-descriptions.  The idea being that the list would change
with any override.

This approach quickly got hairy.

For one thing, clefs get their 'glyph property added later on.  That was
why initially all clefs got colored, even the default treble clef that you
get with { c d e f }, for example.  Who knows if there are other such cases.

For another, tweaks--unlike overrides--do not result in a change to the
grob's basic property alist.  To get at tweaks, it is necessary to find the
"music-cause" of the grob--i.e., find the music expression which lead
ultimately to its creation.  Luckily the stream event carries a reference
to this earlier stage of processing.  (BTW, there is a note somewhere in
the source that says this reference ought to be removed at some stage.)

(This method also--like the music function \colorOverride--can't get at
properties overridden in a \layout \context block.  I really don't know how
to do that, and I hope that someone can give me a way!)

It occurred to me that it was more natural to simply look at the music
input.  The method above tries to detect overrides by a sneaky method of
comparing property alists with default alists, bound to break down or lead
to complexities (as with the special casing of Clef.glyph).  Why not just
look at the music expression for OverrideProperty, RevertProperty--there's
no mistaking those for override or revert.

Plus, it's easy to tell if it's a user override or one that happened
through \voiceOne, \voiceTwo so  half the stems in the piece don't turn
green.

This would be the method you hint at below:

or

And this *should* work just fine.  Except that I believe that the
editionEngraver adds the overrides outside of the music expression somehow.
Therefore, they are invisible to \colorOverrides.

(I wonder if Jan-Peter could clarify what it is that the engraver does; I'm
not familiar with the code, and fear that I've misrepresented it.)

I *would* like to figure out how to get into the \layout block to color
those overrides too.  However, I'm guessing that this will have to be done
by a second function, a two-pass approach to coloring the score.  And,
again, I need advice on how to write such a function :)

For people who mix overrides in the music expression and adopt at most a
moderate separation of "presentation" and "content" the function
\colorOverride[1] should work just fine.  Jan-Peter could probably come up
with something easily integrated with the editionEngraver to accommodate
that more complete separation.

Whew...long email.  Hope that clarifies the issues!

Could you clarify how you are defining \theScore here?  Are you defining
the score with \new Score { [...] } minus a layout block?  I bring this up
because I can't see how errors wouldn't arise if you do it any other way.

More details:

If you do the following--

theScore =
\score {

[...]

}

You can get the score appear with
\theScore

or

\theScore \layout { }

However, you can't apply the music function \colorOverride to \theScore:

\colorOverride \theScore

returns the error

wrong type for argument 1.  Expecting music, found #
\colorOverride
   \myScore

Of course, if you put \colorOverride within the score somewhere like:

theScore =
\score {
  \colorOverride
  \new Staff {
c'
  }
}

all is well.

However, you can do

theScore =
\new Score {

[...]

}

and

\colorOverride \theScore

will work fine, because \theScore is a music expression

%%

Does this logic apply to what you're doing, or is there another way?

Best,
David

So it seems that the warning is being treated as a fatal error, which does not 
happen on Ubuntu. I don’t seem to be able to ignore the warning with the usual 
lilypond mechanism, and I don’t see why I need to merely because I am on Fedora.

Re: Fedora 21 and lilypond 2.19.19

2015-05-02 Thread Phil Holmes

Looks like the same problem that others are reporting with Fedora.

What output do you get (specifically the output concerned with Ghostscript) if 
you run Lilypond in verbose mode?

  Greetings All,


  As a long time Mint and Ubuntu user, I am taking a look at Fedora 21 for use 
with lilypond.


  With lilypond version 2.19.19 I cannot compile any files, with the following 
error from ghostscript:


  warning: `(gs -q -dSAFER -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=595.28 
-dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=841.89 -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -r1200 
-sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=./sonata.pdf -c.setpdfwrite -fsonata.ps)' failed 
(256)


  Is this a known issue? Should I stay safely on Mint? I see recent discussion 
about difficulties with Fedora 22 and ghostscript.


  It’s not helped by my complete inability to find a listing of ghostscript 
error codes anywhere, despite looking.

Re: Guitar Tab Quarter Tone Bends

2015-05-02 Thread Stephen MacNeil

Hi Marc

>Yes, please! Is it based on bend.ily, or did you wrote it from scratch?
I>IRC, 1/4 bends were possible in bend.ily ...

It uses definitions.ily which I believe is based on bend.ily i think. Great
work by the way! And yes quarter tones are possibly however It dies if the
tab is printed. This never bothered me as I removed the tab sections from
the file anyway, and it works without it. Anyway as I said this is a "Band
Aid" solution, basically it just adds whatever you put in 1 1/3 2 1/4 etc
by covering the old marking (not a great solution) and changes the
accidental. Hence Band aid! It allows printing them with tab, which is what
was needed.

anyway thanks for the great work in bend.ily

for padding reasons always cover 1 with 1, 2 with 2 etc, and the paper
section seems to be needed unless you change alignment in the markups.

 Hi all,

Attached is version 10 that fixes:

1. beam appearance (using a new stencil-flip function)
2. duration-only note entry (c'8 8 8 8)
3. key signatures appearing at the beginning of every line

The key signature fix was a standard LilyPond override, so adjust as needed:

Ming, would you please ask your question about tags and lyrics in another

staff margins?

2015-05-02 Thread N. Andrew Walsh

Stupid question: I'm looking to specify the margins for the music staff, as
separate from the margins for the printable area. This is trivial for most
cases (the staff margin is set to zero, or depends on instrument names, for
two sides), but for the bottom and top margin I'd like to specify an
explicit distance between the printable area and the start of the staff
itself (such that space is left for text or annotations, etc.).

I can't seem to find a variable that controls that. Anybody mind briefly
pointing it out to me?

Cheers,

A
