Re: new Staff staff-staff-spacing (down AND up) regarding only one single system

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hi,

> But I don't find a solution for adjusting the distance to the upper one.

Indeed, I don’t know of one. And I’ve often lamented this missing feature.

> Any suggestions or workarounds?

When I need to force a staff-above away, I sometimes increase the padding of 
some grob (e.g., markup) and then extra-offset it back down.

Hope that helps!
Kieren.

Re: Alignment of ‘non-extremal’ bass figures

[Richard Shann]

The syntax Denemo uses is this

<10 9>4
\once \override Staff.BassFigureAlignmentPositioning #'Y-offset = #'7
<8>4 

Interestingly, with the figures  above the notes, following the heights
of the notes (i.e. the 18th c style figures) no override is needed for
this example. 
LilyPond's default style is (as always) late 19th century, when the
figures were only of academic interest, not intended to be used for a
continuo player to create an accompaniment at sight.

RE: update objects

[Luca Danieli]

Thank you David,
I recently introduced some arrowed micro-tonal notation to my file. In the file 
I was suggested the standard micro-tonal notation is replaced by the following 
code (example):(ceh . ,(ly:make-pitch -1 0 (/ FLAT 2)))They told me that to 
enable this symbol I have to update the arrowGlyphs.
Alternatively I could use the standard symbol for representing quarter-tones, 
but I don't know how to produce it.
I tried for example this:(ceh . ,(ly:make-pitch -1 0 (* FLAT 1/2)))but it 
doesn't work.So I now have arrowed-notation but I cannot reproduce anymore 
quarter-tone standard notation.
This is why I would like to update "arrayGlyphs", but unfortunately I don't 
understand the "how to".

"arrowGlyphs" is not actually part of LilyPond.  It appears to be a custom

Hi Simon,

aligning 9 and 8 makes only sense, if the 10 from the first continues
in the second BassFigure. In this case you should use
BassFigureContinuation, which can be made transparent, ofcourse.

\version "2.19.35"

\score {
  <<
{ s1 }
\figures {
  <10 9>4
  \once \hide BassFigureContinuation
  \once \bassFigureExtendersOn
  <10 8>4
}
  >>
}

That will be implied if the figures are aligned.

BassFigureContinuation, which can be made transparent, ofcourse.


Good idea. I’m poking in the dark a little bit, since I don’t have the 
source at hand, only scholarly editions (one from the late 19th century, 
one very recent). It seems that the older one tampers less with the 
original way of notation here…


Best, Simon

Ah… well, you can always use explicit staff positioning:

new Staff staff-staff-spacing (down AND up) regarding only one single system

[musicus]

Dear Lilyponders,

I have a problem with a certain, probably rare use case of an 
temporarily inserted Staff between two main staves (piano music)


[...]\new Staff \with { \override 
VerticalAxisGroup.staff-staff-spacing.padding } [...]


works well for adjusting the distance to the lower staff.

But I don't find a solution for adjusting the distance to the upper one.
Of course, I don't want to change the standard vertical spacing, when 
only the two main staves are used.


Any suggestions or workarounds?

Thank you for your help,

musicus\version "2.19.34"

\paper {
  paper-width = 10\cm
  system-system-spacing.padding = 10
}

\score {
  \new PianoStaff
  <<
\new Staff = "one" \relative c'' {
  a a a a
  \break
  a a
  <<
{ a a }
\new Staff \with {
  alignAboveContext = "two"

Hi Simon,

Here's a basic solution:

\score {

\figures {
  <10 9>4  %<8>
  %<\markup\strut 8>
  %<\markup\vspace #2 8>
  %<\markup " " 8>
  <\markup\transparent 8 8>
}

You could use Staff.BassFigureAlignmentPositioning.Y-offset here – 
unless you want to support 2.16 syntax, but other than that there’s no 
reason, I think.

I like \markup\transparent 8 better as a solution.

<8>4

Interestingly, with the figures  above the notes, following the heights
of the notes (i.e. the 18th c style figures) no override is needed for
this example.


But would be for <9 3> <8> – so that’s a little beside the point.


LilyPond's default style is (as always) late 19th century, when the
figures were only of academic interest, not intended to be used for a
continuo player to create an accompaniment at sight.


Good point, I’ll consider that. My reasoning was that if the figures are 
below the Continuo staff in full score, they aid in better visual 
separation of the systems. If I were to make a part, I’d put them above 
the staff, but the continuo player will play from full score – as they 
most often do today – so there will be no need for a part.

Re: Lyrics for additional verses in LilyPond?

I basically copied the example from p274 et seq of the Notation Manual
(2.18.2), but I think the factorisation of p276 is rather poor. I keep
the individual verses at the end of the file containing the notes and
any lyric underlays:

texti = \markup {
  \column {
\line {
  "1. "
  \column {
"Saviour, again to thy dear name we raise"
"With one accord our parting hymn of praise;"
"We stand to bless thee ere our worship cease;"
"Then, lowly kneeling, wait thy word of peace."
  }
}
  }
}

which yields conventional hanging indents for the verse numbers.
I then put the layout (and which selection of verses I want to set) in
the file containing the \score sections:

\score {
  [...]
  \layout { }
}

\markup {
  \fill-line {
\column {
  { \texti } \vspace #2.0
  [... etc ...]
}
  }
}

This is just a simple column. But imagine the editing involved if, for
example, you wanted to omit verse 3 in the example in the Manual...

Cheers,
David.

Lyrics for additional verses in LilyPond?

[dumbledad]

Is there a way in LilyPond to simply list the lyrics corresponding to 
additional verses after the end of the music, with one paragraph per verse?

N.B. This exact question has been asked before
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-music/2001-03/msg00089.html
in 2001, but the first answer ("read this book") references a dead URL, while 
the second (use `\context Lyrics`) does not work for me, I get LilyPond 
syntax errors.

Here's the song under which I want to write the additional verses.

\header{
  title = "JOHN BALL"
  instrument = "(for unaccompanied voice)"
  composer = "Sydney Carter"
  copyright = "From \"In the Present Tense (Songs of Sydney Carter Book 5)\", 
Stainer and Bell 1982, ISBN 9780852495001"
  tagline = ""
}

\score {
  \relative {
\time 2/4
\clef treble
\tempo 4=180
\key a \major
cis'' a8 fis |  e4. cis8 |  d e gis fis |  e2 | 
fis4 fis8 fis | fis4 gis8 a | b a gis a | b cis d b |

  }
  
  \addlyrics { 
Who'll be the | la -- dy, | Who will be the | lord, | When we are | 
ruled by the | love of one an -- | o -- ther? Tell me, | Wholl be the | 
la -- dy, | Who will be the | lord, In the | light that is | 
com -- ing in the | morn -- | ing. | 
Sing, John | Ball, And | tell it to them | all: | Long live the | 
day that is | dawn -- | ing! And I'll | crow like a | cock, I'll | 
car -- ol like a | lark, For the | light that is | com -- ing In the | 
morn -- | ing. 
  }
  
  \layout { }
  \midi { }
}


\version "2.18.2" 

I'd like to add verses 2, 3, and 4 underneath, separated from the music just 
as words, as they are here: http://imgur.com/pv7icqd

Re: Lyrics for additional verses in LilyPond?

[Knute Snortum]

What about a markup block?

\markup {
  \column {
\line { \null }
\line { 2. Be Thou my wisdom and Thou my true word }
\line { \hspace #2 I ever with Thee, Thou with me, Lord }
\line { \hspace #2 Thou my great Father and I Thy true son; }
\line { \hspace #2 Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one. }
\line { \null }
\line { 3. Riches I heed not, nor man's empty praise }
\line { \hspace #2 Thou mine inheritance now and always }
\line { \hspace #2 Thou and Thou only, first in my heart }
\line { \hspace #2 High King of heaven, my treasure Thou art. }
\line { \null }
\line { 4. High King of heaven, thy victory one, }
\line { \hspace #2 May I reach heaven's joys, O bright heaven's Sun! }
\line { \hspace #2 Heart of my own heart, whatever befall, }
\line { \hspace #2 Still be my vision O Ruler of all. }
  }
}

Re: Lyrics for additional verses in LilyPond?

[BB]

Have a look at as a start
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/stanzas
Printing stanzas at the end in multiple columns

I do not know the formating tags to get one verse in the middle, two 
ones separated in neighbouring columns and the last again in the middle.

But I am shure formating is described in the manual elsewhere.
