Re: trying to write a simple python beaming snippet for Frescobaldi

[tisimst]

Leszek,

Just thought I'd bring this up (though I know you've already put in a bunch
of work. You can add a keyboard shortcut to the "Quick Insert" > "Beam"
option. Following the attached image, here's the steps (since it doesn't
show up in the default set of keyboard shortcuts in the preferences window):

1. Right-click on the "Beam" option in the Quick Insert tool (if you can't
see the Quick Insert tool, you'll need to open it via the "Tools" > "Quick
Insert" menu option).
2. Click on "Configure Keyboard Shortcut (None)"
3. Click on the "Use a custom shortcut" radio button
4. Click on the input box next to "Primary shortcut"
5. Now, hit the "Ctrl" and "[" buttons at the same time on your keyboard to
save the key combination and click on "OK" to save the shortcut
6. Select the group of notes you want to apply the beam to and hit "Ctrl +
[" to have Frescobaldi insert the beam group (just like your code does).

Best,
Abraham

For me it worked without problems uploading to German wikipedia, cf.

problem with "extra" lyrics appearing only sometimes

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hello all,

Apologies in advance: I don’t have time for a minimal example…
I’m supposed to have sent this engraving off this morning.  =\
I just need to figure out what’s wrong and move on.

I have the following structure:

  \new ChoirStaff <<
\new Staff = "Staff_SA" \new Voice = "Voice_SA" << \global \SA_notes >>
\new Lyrics \with { alignAboveContext = "Staff_SA" } \lyricsto 
"Voice_S" \S_words
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "Voice_SA" { \SA_words }
\new Staff = "Staff_TB" \new Voice = "Voice_TB" << \global \TB_notes >>
\new Lyrics \with { alignAboveContext = "Staff_TB" } \lyricsto 
"Voice_T" \T_words
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "Voice_TB" { \TB_words }
  >>

This allows me to have up to four lines of lyrics: one above and one below each 
of the two choral staves.

For some reason, some lyrics are appearing and others are not. It seems almost 
random. In my note code, where I want to have (e.g.,) some soprano words 
appear, I use:

<<
  { \voiceTwo r2 a'8 gs' fs' e' ~ 2 ~ 2 }
  \context Voice = "Voice_S" { \voiceOne e''8 ds'' cs'' b' ~ 1 ~ 2 }
>> \oneVoice r4   | % SA 25

As I said, this appears to work exactly as expected in many circumstances, and 
fail completely in others.
Any thoughts on what might be causing this intermittency?

Thanks,
Kieren.

SVG files for MediaWiki

[Daniel Rosen]

When I create an SVG file with LilyPond and upload it to Wikimedia Commons, it 
renders as a blank image (try uploading Tristan.preview.svg at 
https://tools.wmflabs.org/svgcheck/). Can anyone help me figure out how to fix 
this? I've already tried to import it into and export it from Apache OpenOffice 
Draw, but there must be some kind of problem with the import filter extension 
(obtainable at https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/SVG_Import_Filter) because a 
couple of grobs are missing from the program's rendering (namely, the 
full-measure rest in line 22, and the flags on the a8 in line 7 and the ais8 in 
line 8-see OOTristan.svg).

Well, I wrote "it's fixable".  That's issue 4687, with patch.  The
markup grammar special-cased "markup command chain with only markup
argument missing" and the \etc hooked into that special case.  I've
added the rest now.

As a note aside: it was a hole in one.  First attempt was accepted by
the compiler and worked.  For a mixed non-trivial Bison/Scheme
feature...

Re: problem with "extra" lyrics appearing only sometimes

[tisimst]

Kieren,

This doesn't necessarily answer your question, but one thing I've noticed
about assigning lyrics to voices, is that if I don't explicitly mention the
voice inside the \score block, then it's almost like the lyrics don't know
the voice exists. So, If there's a way to show \context Voice = "Voice_S"
somewhere inside the \score block, then the lyrics should find the right
notes.

HTH,
Abraham

Re: problem with "extra" lyrics appearing only sometimes

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hi Abraham,

THANK YOU!

Don’t know if it's “kosher” [pushing the \global variable into my Voice 
contexts to keep them alive], but I’m now using:

  \new ChoirStaff << 
\new Staff = “Staff_SA” <<
\new Voice = "Voice_SA" << \global \SA_notes >>
\context Voice = “Voice_S” \global
>>
\new Lyrics \with { alignAboveContext = "Staff_SA" } \lyricsto 
"Voice_S" \S_words 
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "Voice_SA" { \SA_words } 
\new Staff = “Staff_TB” <<
\new Voice = "Voice_TB" << \global \TB_notes >>
\context Voice = “Voice_T” \global
>>
\new Lyrics \with { alignAboveContext = "Staff_TB" } \lyricsto 
"Voice_T" \T_words 
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "Voice_TB" { \TB_words } 
  >> 

and lyrics are appearing everywhere they’re supposed to.  =)

If anyone has structural/code improvements or suggestions, let me know.
At least for now this seems to work, and I can get this engraving finished and 
sent off.

Thanks!
Kieren.

Nice advantages.

And right now
\markup bold-red
prints the string "bold-red".

Having
\markup bold-red = <ẃhat-ever>
,i.e. a definition might lead to confusions.
Is it possible to create a sort-of-markup-macro to be used like:

\sort-of-markup-macro sort-of-markup-macro-name = 

instead?
(Just brain-storming)

November font

[Andrew Bernard]

Greetings All,

Has anybody used the November font mentioned in the Scores of Beauty blog? 
Since this is a rather expensive commercial font, it may be good to have 
reviews from people who have experience with it, as with other commercial 
software.

I wonder if the whole idea goes against the grain of the open source concept of 
lilypond anyway.

Andrew

Hi Federico,

Because the environment variable is set in .bashrc (the advantage is 
that it will work either if frescobaldi is run from terminal and if 
it's run from the desktop).

You missed that part of the wiki or didn't work for you?

It didn't. Is does when I run Frescobaldi from the terminal but not 
when I run it from the menu. Using Goolgle I find: "aliases from 
~/.bashrc file will work only in a bash interactive shell"


Ok, then I'll add frescobaldi to the path in .bashrc.
When we discussed this, we eventually agreed that this was better than 
using an alias, but I forgot updating the wiki.


Thanks

trying to write a simple python beaming snippet for Frescobaldi

[Leszek Wroński]

Guys,

Frescobaldi has the useful 'slur for the selected notes' snippet under C-(.
I want to have the same functionality for beams. That is, I want to be able
to select some notes, and then via the snippet insert a '[' in the first
space (that is, after the first note), and then a ']' at the end.

Unfortunately, I have never in my life written a line of python... till
this day, that is. So, I'm trying the following ('W' is for whitespace):

1 -*- name: mybeam; python; selection: strip;

2 x = 0

3 mysequence = text

4 while x < len(text):

5 WW if text[x] == ' ':

6  mysequence[x] = '['

7  break

8 WW x = x + 1

9 text = mysequence + ']'


Notice that line 5 contains a space between the quotes. Of course I need to
add conditions regarding what to do if there's no space in the selection
etc. But that's for later, once this basic script actually works. As you
can see, I thought I'd copy the selection to 'mysequence' string to
manipulate on it; this is probably unneeded. But after writing the above I
got, at line 5, an error "TypeError: 'unicode' object does not support item
assignment".


What I found weird is that to my untrained eyes line 5 does no assigning,
but rather checks whether the xth element of the string text is a space.
Anyway, after some googling I decided to substitute "is" for "==" in line
5. Right now the script does not give any errors, but it only adds a ']' at
the end of the selection. I'm apparently unable to check whether the xth
element of the string text is a space. I tried


if text[x] == ' %d':


and


if text[x] ==  u"\u0020":


and


if text[x].isspace():


to no avail (the last one gave the "unicode object does not support item
assignment" error again, which I don't understand at all, having copied the
command from
http://www.ehow.com/how_12112665_determine-character-whitespace-python.html).
Could anyone give me a hint on this?


Best regards,


Leszek.

Running Frescobaldi from Git

[Ed.Klarinet]

Hi,

Maybe this is useful for those who want to run Frescobaldi from Git.

I just succeeded running Frescobaldi using a Git clone as described in 
this wiki:

https://github.com/wbsoft/frescobaldi/wiki/Run-Frescobaldi-from-git

But I had to change my desktop file to run Frescobaldi from the menu 
(Ubuntu 15.04/Unity)


Exec=env PYTHONPATH=/path-to-python-ly/python-ly 
/path-to-frescobaldi/frescobaldi %F


The way to set the environment variable in the .desktop file is not 
documented in the wiki.

Anyway, should this rather work using the syntax

\markup bold-red = \bold \with-color #red \etc

?  this would have the advantage of hiding the way \markup introduces
its own name space, and one could use the full define-markup-command
resulting in (markup #:bold-red ...) and make-bold-red-markup working as
well.

But it seems weird to use this for \etc-style functions only.  And the
whole markup-macro machinery is crazy anyway.

Re: trying to write a simple python beaming snippet for Frescobaldi

[Leszek Wroński]

You're right, thanks! This showed I was actually doing the correct thing
when checking whether a string element was a space. Now I see that actually
Frescobaldi starts calculating the lines from the 2nd one (that is, after
the line with the initial -*- expression). And so the error was when I was
assigning

mysequence[x] = '['

because, as I have just learned, strings in Python are immutable. Gosh. This
does not explain everything what was going on, most probably due to my
incompetence. But now I have something that's working:

x = 0
y = 0
mysequence = text
while x < len(text):
  if text[x] == ' ' and y = 0:
mysequence = mysequence + '[ '
y = y + 1
  else:
mysequence = mysequence + text[x]
  x = x + 1
text = mysequence + ']'

So when I select "d16 e8 f8" it returns "d16[ e8 f8]" as I intended. Now I
will make it nicer :-)

Thanks you very much, Jacques!

I just found out that changePitch is very useful to write homophonic
passages in \parallelMusic!

%%
\version "2.19.32"
\include "changePitch.ly"

\parallelMusic #'(one two three) {
  \changePitch
  { 4 8 \samePitch { 8~ 8 } 8 8 8 | }
  {
c'' d'' e'' f'' g'' a''
a'  b'  c'' d'' c'' cis''
f'  g'  a'  b'  as' ges'
  }
}

<<
  \one
  \two
  \three
>>
%%

But there is still a small problem with ties.
It's not always possible to use \samePitch.


{ 4 4~ \tuplet 3/2 { 8 8 8 } 4 | }


Would it be possible to tell changePitch to automatically repeat the pitch
of a tied note?

I tried to understand the scheme code to find a solution by myself. But once
again I discovered the limits of my scheme-abilities very soon..
