Here another thought, hijacking Glissando this time.
It will cause ugly output for usual Staff and it's not nice to create
all those Glissandi for a chord and throw away all not needed.

TuxGuitar Export

2015-10-01 Thread Villum Sejersen 

Hello

I believe you have misunderstood something.

There really is no need to use any older version of lilypond.

If your TuxGuitar installation exports lilypond code meant for older 
versions than the present (stable: 2.18.2, development: 2:19.29), you 
can just use the convert-ly script.

There used to be a way... dynamics in Midi

2015-10-01 Thread Edward Ardzinski 
As I have evolved using LP I've become very modular.  One of the last things
I was working on before my computer crash was a serial/tone row thing, so
that's where I picked up.

So I have my upper and lower parts, and a drum part...I remember that there
was a way to assign dynamics to each part, so the upper part would come in
at mf, while the lower part starts at mp...and at bar 21 the upper part has
become p, and the lower part is a mf

Does this make sense to anybody?

my score block...

\score {
  <<
% score layout

\context Voice = "one"
{
\set Staff.midiInstrument = #"flute"
\transpose c c' \vcTwo
}

\context Voice = "two"
{
\set Staff.midiInstrument = #"bassoon"
\transpose c c, \vcOne
}

\new DrumStaff
<<
\new DrumVoice { \voiceOne \dh }
\new DrumVoice { \voiceTwo \dl }
>>

  >>

 %\layout { \context { \Staff \RemoveEmptyStaves } }
 \midi { \tempo 4 = 144 }
}

Well, you don't start a Voice context of your own.  LilyPond just sticks
with any old Bottom context it can find then, and that happens to be
your CueVoice context.

So you probably should explicitly put your melody in a \new Voice.

Hi,

I have experienced this also.
Simply replace your \new Staff \melody
by \new Staff \new Voice \melody . ;-D

That's because you rely on LilyPond to instantiate your normal voice,
but it won't if you instantiate a CueVoice at the beginning of the
piece.

Repeat with alternatives

2015-10-01 Thread s.p.korzilius 
Dear Sir / Madam,

I’m trying to write a piece that has repeats with alternatives. It seems that 
“\repeat volta 2” is the way to go with supplying the alternatives in 
“\alternative”. However, this seems to work only for alternative endings, while 
I have alternative middle parts.

I have tried to fix this manually with introducing volta brackets and repeat 
signs. Unfortunately Lilypond doesn’t recognize this as a repeat and counts the 
notes of the alternatives as if they are all played in one run (so that the 
first note after the alternatives does not start a new measure, as it should, 
see attachment).

Hope you can help me.

Kindest regards,

Stan Korzilius

I don't know whether this is the approved way, but Denemo uses this
syntax

\set Timing.measurePosition = #(ly:make-moment -1/2)

to indicate that the second time bar is only half a bar. (This example
is for half a bar in 4/4 time).

I think for hand-written LilyPond you should be using the \repeat
volta ... {} \alternative {} etc style syntax (the only reason Denemo
doesn't output that by default is that often the users do not look at
the LilyPond and then get in a mess through failing to open and close
the repeat).

HTH

The numbers are somewhat random, #'(.4 . .2) also looks good, though 
less clear perhaps.

(Translate-scaled makes it robust against font size changes.)

Here’s a demo file showing the entire framework in action (since you 
seemed to be interested in more detail, I included all of it (except for 
style-sheet information), resulting in quite a lot of code).
I’m working on a work by di Lasso with nine pieces divided in two or 
three ‘partes’ each; the framework is designed such as to give the 
possibility of printing any selection of _parts_ (i.e. voices), partes 
and pieces. For the latter, just use multiple \include "scoreN.ily" in 
your print.ly file.
I don’t want to include the actual music, so I made a small, dummy 
example showing the use of some features. Uncomment the respective lines 
from the \scoreBox function definition to use it for SATB.
I hope it becomes clear how the includes are nested; there are some 
TODOs, most notably I must stop using addlyrics, because it 
center-aligns syllables for melismata – that’s the only bug that I know of.
Thanks to everybody for any help which allowed me to make this really 
useful setup.

Yes.  You are starting the alternative in the middle of the bar which, from the 
perspective of the musician reading the piece, is going to look very odd and be 
hard to follow.  The alternatives should always be full bars not only for 
Lilypond to function correctly but for the musicians to be able to play it 
correctly without needing a lot of instruction.

Whiteout on hairpins?

2015-10-01 Thread Connor Harris 
Is there any way to print hairpins while whiting out parts of anything 
(specifically, in this case, note stems and beams) that they cross, 
analogous to what the \whiteout command does for text markup?

I have tried to fix this manually with introducing volta brackets and repeat signs. Unfortunately Lilypond doesn’t recognize this as a repeat and counts the notes of the alternatives as if they are all played in one run (so that the first note after the alternatives does not start a new measure, as it should, see attachment).

Lilypond to function correctly but for the musicians to be able to play it

But that's no use if you're setting parts for something that someone 
else has written ... it gets thoroughly confusing if some people have 
parts one way, and others have parts another way. I've had to set stuff 
like that and it gets tricky ...


I think I used a mixture of \partial and spacer rests.

Anyways, I think we've all missed the OPs problem. As he phrased it, I 
understand he wants


{fixed part 1} {alternative 1} {alternative 2} {fixed part 2} repeat

How you do that, I dunno, apart from just not using \repeat and setting 
the bits manually.

Percent repeats within \parallelMusic

2015-10-01 Thread David Sumbler 
The string quartet I have been working on has a few passages where one
or more of the instruments are playing the same pattern for several bars
in succession.

In the score I want these to be written out in full, but in the parts I
would like to use numbered "percent" repeat marks.

The obvious way for me to do this was to use tags, and provide 2
versions.

Unfortunately, because I am using the \parallelMusic structure, it seems
to me that this won't work.

As an alternative, I thought I could provide the alternatives on a
bar-by-bar basis, just for the instrument concerned, so I have
experimented to see how I can construct the required output.

With just the repeat marks, this works:

\version "2.19.24"

makePercent =
#(define-music-function (note) (ly:music?)
   "Make a percent repeat the same length as NOTE."
   (make-music 'PercentEvent
   'length (ly:music-length note)))

\relative c'' {
%Normal version
  \repeat percent 3 { c1 }
%Constructed version
  c1
  \makePercent s1
  \makePercent s1
}

But the best I have managed so far to include numbers over the repeats
is:

\version "2.19.24"

makePercent =
#(define-music-function (note) (ly:music?)
   "Make a percent repeat the same length as NOTE."
   (make-music 'PercentEvent
   'length (ly:music-length note)))

\relative c'' {
%Normal
  \set countPercentRepeats = ##t
  \repeat percent 3 { c1 }
%Constructed version
  c1
  << {\makePercent s1} {s1^\markup \override #'(font-encoding . fetaText) \tiny 
"2"} >>
  << {\makePercent s1} {s1^\markup \override #'(font-encoding . fetaText) \tiny 
"3"} >>
}

This works (apart from the fact that the numbers are not correctly
centred over the bar), but it is clearly rather ungainly.

Can anyone suggest a better way of achieving what I want?

David

Here's an alternate engraver for TextSpanner which works with spanner-id.

One problem I encounter is preserving the proper order over line breaks.

Re: Stacked letters in markup

Thank you all for your suggestions and for not flooding me with RTFM.

I'll go with this variation:

dd = \markup {

  \translate-scaled #'(0 . .25) D
  \translate-scaled #'(.5 . -.25) D
}

which seems to work well in combination with other, non-stacked symbols.

The regression test was originally written by Mike Solomon.

As far as boxes go, I've worked on them from time to time (and all but
given up).  I didn't base this on earlier stuff, partly because I didn't
have the patience to try to find the earlier files, and partly because I
didn't need to add very much to the model.  (Mostly, I just added a stencil
function and changed a few names.)

This is too late, unfortunately, but maybe you'll get some use out of the
attached.

The only way I could see to get nested boxes was to incorporate the idea of
'spanner-id.  I approximated your design by using a nested box with some
changed attributes.  The property 'box-faces is used to hide sides of the
box.  The 'box-dimension-offset property is used to give room for the line.

(Oh, I made \boxSpanStart and the like into post-events so they're like
\startTextSpan, etc.

Yes.  You could do something like what I did here, but in this case an
engraver which creates an Item rather than a Spanner.

Re: Upgrade to 2.18 from...a long time ago

2015-10-01 Thread Edward Ardzinski 
Right now it's a total reboot.  When I finally do recover the old files they
will work just fine on my friends computer.  But now I've started with a
blank file in Notepad, 2.18.2, and starting off with an example file.  At
this point I just about have my old template "re-written".

One thing I've noticed, is that running LP directly seems far quicker than
my old computer.  Not sure how much of that was the extra layer of the text
editor I had written, or how much of that was general 6 year old Windows 7
box slowness.

Bfa-Bmi key signature?

2015-10-01 Thread Graham King 
In transcribing a piece of renaissance music, I am trying to refine the
following key signature:

\version 2.19.21
\relative c' {
  \set Staff.keyAlterations = #`(((-1 . 6) . ,NATURAL)
 (( 0 . 6) . ,FLAT))
  R1 b2 bes b' bes
}

Ideally, the flat in the key signature should have a ledger line, and
should be vertically aligned with the natural sign.  (There is a
corresponding keysig in bass clef which also needs this alignment)

I have looked at:
1) The re-writing of the key signature engraver in Scheme:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2015-08/msg00429.html


2) The addition of ledger lines to a key signature:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2014-11/msg00454.html


3) The Notation Reference
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/displaying-pitches#key-signature
 and the sections of the Internals Reference that this refers to;

and I confess that I'm floundering a bit.  Well, more than a bit.  

This specific issue is quite common in early music, where the composer
uses the hard hexachord.

Grateful for any help/guidance !

Actually, with current developer versions the above works just fine even
without meddling with Timing.measurePosition in any manner.  That was
issue 355, fixed in version 2.19.0 (though there were a few additional
fixes later) in November 2013.

RE: Repeat with alternatives

2015-10-01 Thread Mark Stephen Mrotek 
Stan,

 

Lilypond does handle mid-measure repeats, you just have to tell it that it is 
mid-measure:

 

\version "2.18.2"

\score {

  \new Staff {

\time 4/4

\repeat volta 2 {

a'8 b' c' e' c'2

a'4 b' }

\alternative {

{d' g'}

{\set Timing.measurePosition = #(ly:make-moment -1/2)

  d'8 e' f' g'}}

d''1 

  }

}

Subject: Repeat with alternatives

 

Dear Sir / Madam,

 

I’m trying to write a piece that has repeats with alternatives. It seems that 
“\repeat volta 2” is the way to go with supplying the alternatives in 
“\alternative”. However, this seems to work only for alternative endings, while 
I have alternative middle parts.

 

I have tried to fix this manually with introducing volta brackets and repeat 
signs. Unfortunately Lilypond doesn’t recognize this as a repeat and counts the 
notes of the alternatives as if they are all played in one run (so that the 
first note after the alternatives does not start a new measure, as it should, 
see attachment).

 

Hope you can help me.

 

Kindest regards,

 

Stan Korzilius

Slur under beam

2015-10-01 Thread Andrew Bernard 
How do you position a slur under a beam?

Setting Slur.positions does not want to move it, which is fine, but I cannot 
find the correct override or setting.

And in this example, part of a complex multivoice score which is very dense, I 
do need the slur under the beam and above the notes. The score uses quite long 
stems, so there is plenty of room for the slur to fit.

So what you're wanting is, I take it, to write |:A-B1/B2-C:| and have the
players play A B1 C A B2 C. I suppose the question arises as to where
you draw the line in calling things "repeats". Ssupposing I write
|:A-B1/B2-C-D1/D2-E:| where A, C and E have 1 measure each, and the
rest of the sections each have several...

This also ties into the lyric structure desired in
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2015-09/msg00592.html
because, for example, your two alternatives might be a way of dealing
with two verses of text where the syllables didn't quite match at that
point.

Having got all that of my chest! the partial solution below is hardly
original. However, unlike Tim's, I haven't refactored the barlines.
This actually makes it look odd to me as the 2nd alternative shouldn't
start with a barline. And unlike Mark's, it doesn't have extra :|
markings that erroneously tell you to go back to the start.

Following David K's contribution, I looked at issue 355 but, without
any version 2.19 to run, I couldn't experiment with the code in
comment #11 (which looks like the final word). It seems to imply that
2.19's alternatives always start a fresh bar, which is not what we
want here where we start on beat 3. And, of course, issue 355 wouldn't
affect Mark's spurious :| markings.

However, my partial solution fails to close the 2nd alternative's
volta bracket, and I don't see any way of doing so. Perhaps someone
more expert could help there with some sort of tweak.

Answering my own question here, the \shapeII function in the openlilylib 
repository does the trick (and many other astounding tricks as well, by the 
way).

Note that the current code is somewhat dated, and will not work with 2.19.28 or 
similar recent versions. Simon Albrecht has made a fine fix and it is waiting 
on a pull request to be incorporated.
