Re: how to differentiate F1:maj and F1:maj7

[palartu]

It is the same by default. 

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/common-chord-modifiers

Both modifiers maj and maj7 means major 7th chord. :)

Ming,

That would be

Detect a tie while overriding a slur's stencil

[Urs Liska]

Hi all,

when overriding a slur's stencil with a custom path, is it possible to detect if

- the starting note has a tie attached
and/or
- the ending note is the end of a tie
?

Thanks

You could write

violin = \new Staff
\relative {

just as you could write

cello = \new Staff d'

because d' is one expression.

Here you should read up the Notation Reference §3.1.5.
width is not a music expression, so you couldn't write, say,

{ \namedMusic \width }

So \width needs to be interpreted in something like \paper { \width
and other things }. What you set a variable to (ie the right hand side)
determines where you can later use it.

If there are no braces (or equivalent), then it'll be a single item,
but that item could be a command with its own argument following it.

compiler = \markup Rutter

I hope some of that makes sense.

Problem with Null Voice changing length of stems on beamed notes

[palartu]

I'm having problems with NullVoice. Its very practical for my needs and it
serves its purpose but it also make me angry very often. 

When using *NullVoice* in Staff context, it changes *length of stems on
beamed notes*. Try to compile this example and see an output. When you
*comment* line with Null Voice, *length of stems changes*. It depends on the
*position of the notes in staff*. Sometimes, stems are shorter, and
sometimes, longer.


\version "2.18.2"

aligner = { c'8 b16 c'16~ c'4 fis'2 }
alt = { a8 g16 a16~ a4 a2 }
sopran = { c'8 b16 c'16~ c'4 fis'2 }

\score {
  \new Staff <<
\partcombine \sopran \alt 
\new NullVoice = "null" \aligner
  >>
}
*

Moreover, if you try to replace *part combine* line with 

***
\new Voice { \sopran }
**

the behaviour is the same. It doesn't matter if I'm using two voices or one
voice or partcombine, behaviour is not consistent. I've tried to fix that
manually in Inkscape, but I've had enough. It's too much work to do and I
want to be more productive (read: lazy).

Please, tell me that I can have consistent behaviour for this problem within
Lilypond. 

Thank you for your time and answer.

I had basically the same problem with Frescobaldi 3 and PyQt5.
Probably it is due to an incompatibility with the

Frescobaldi segfault with PyQt4-

[N. Andrew Walsh]

Hi List,

I'm wondering if anybody is having recent issues with Frescobaldi. I run a
rolling-release distro (gentoo), so I install/update packages on an ongoing
basis. In this case, the only package in frescobaldi's dependency tree
that's been updated since mid-December is PyQt4, which just saw the final
release of 4.12 this last week.

Now, Frescobaldi segfaults on startup, with no error message.

Can anybody else on the list report similar or differing experiences?

Unfortunately for LilyPond...  Yet it's worth noting that the plan seems

interpreter to native code... in some future release.[1]


Also it's worth noting that the Guile 2.1.x interpreter appears to be 
significantly faster than the Guile 2.0 interpreter.  A simple test[1] ran:


   1.1 seconds in Guile 1.8
 16.4 seconds in Guile 2.0
   2.4 seconds in Guile 2.1.1

I'd think the slower interpreter would be a prime suspect for causing 
the LilyPond slowdown with Guile 2.0.  Maybe skipping Guile 2.0 for 
Guile 2.2 would make sense -- at least it's worth keeping this on the 
radar for those doing benchmarking and looking into performance 
implications.


(I assume significant performance wins would come from making use of 
Guile's compiler.  David, I guess this is your comment about organizing 
"the compilation and storage of byte code for an application.")

[1] from 
http://wingolog.org/archives/2016/01/11/the-half-strap-self-hosting-and-guile


Back in 2009 when we switched to the eval-in-Scheme, we knew that it 
would result in a slower interpreter. This is because instead of the 
interpreter being compiled to native code, it was compiled to bytecode. 
Also, Guile's Scheme compiler wasn't as good then, so we knew that we 
were leaving optimizations on the floor. Still, the switch to an 
evaluator in Scheme enabled integration of the compiler, and we thought 
that the interpreter speed would improve with time. I just took a look 
and with this silly loop:


(let lp ((n 0)) (if (< n #e1e7) (lp (1+ n

Guile 1.8's interpreter written in C manages to run this in 1.1 seconds. 
Guile 2.0's interpreter written in Scheme and compiled to the old 
virtual machine does it in 16.4 seconds. Guile 2.1.1's interpreter, with 
the closure-chaining optimization, a couple of peephole optimizations in 
the interpreter, and compiled using the better compiler and VM from 
Guile 2.2, manages to finish in 2.4 seconds. So we are definitely 
getting better, and by the time we compile eval.scm to native code I 
have no doubt that we will be as good as the old C implementation. (Of 
course, when compiled to Guile 2.2's VM, the loop finishes in 55 
/milli/seconds, but comparing a compiler and an interpreter is no fair.)

I completely forgot to talk about EPS, I only did in an earlier post. EPS

SVG mode should work as long as you don't use lilypond-book-preamble which
is "hidden" in most of the templates.

You can get the duration from the context property timeSignatureFraction

{
  \time 12/8

  #(lambda (context)
 (display (ly:context-property

I don’t know how you can make a music function that uses this and

I don’t believe that's what’s actually happening… His code, I think, simply 
modifies Clef grobs in all Staff contexts. If you want to modify just one, you 
can use

\new Staff \with { \override ClefModifier… }

Without the quotations, it's tricky to guess what you've seen.
Some hints:

{ c' } is a valid input file: a music expression.

<< c' >>   too because << >> indicates that the expression(s) contained
are simultaneous. In this example, there's just one.

\absolute c'   is a valid input file: the command is a music expression,
and the command's argument is a music expression composed of a single item.
If you write more than one item, you need { } or << >> to show whether
the expressions are sequential or simultaneous.

The same applies to defining variables. Normally you will see
something = { a' b' c'' }   but   something = a'
is also allowed because there's only a single item after the =.

A lot of the examples have just \relative { ... }
which is a valid input file.

Finally, if you put several of the above into a file, each will give
you a separate score. That's because LP wraps the individual expressions
in a great deal of context stuff automatically; voice, staff and score.

Cheers,
David.

maybe I made some mistakes in composing the oxt file. 
Here is another attempt. This time I took the version 0.4.0 oxt file and

Find out denominator of current time signature

[Thomas Weber]

Dear all,

I wonder how I can create a duration that is so to say exactly one time 
signature denominator long (e.g. an eigth in 6/8, a quarter in 4/4 etc.).  I 
thought something like this would work:

  #(make-music
  'SkipEvent
  'duration
  (ly:make-duration 0 0 1 (ly:moment-main-denominator ???))
  'articulations
  (list (make-music
  'AbsoluteDynamicEvent
  'text
  "ff")))

Lacking experience, I don't know whether ly:moment-main-denominator is the 
thing to go for here and if so, what argument to supply.

The background is automatic generation of Lilypond input code where it is 
non-trivial to find out the time signature for the code generator, so I hoped 
it would be possible to write out some Scheme code that will defer that task to 
Lilypond.

Many thanks
Thomas

I understand your question just fine. 

When you just asked:
"How does the parser know when the variable definition has finished if it
can be on multiple lines?"

...I took that to mean exactly that. Variables.

The layout block has braces as well, it's not different in that respect. It
needs braces like all other expressions, just like the manual says. Variable
or not. Just was trying to help.

i.e.

\layout {
  indent = 2\cm
  \context {
\StaffGroup
\override StaffGrouper.staff-staff-spacing.basic-distance = #8
  }
  \context {
\Voice
\override TextScript.padding = #1
\override Glissando.thickness = #3
  }
}

Also, this may help you as well, understanding that multiple lines is fine
if you just remember the braces (variables included):
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/learning/working-on-input-files

Expressions: every piece of LilyPond input needs to have { curly braces }
placed around the input. 

*Whitespace insensitive:* it *does not matter* how many spaces (or tabs or
new lines) you add. ‘{ c4 d e }’ means the same thing as ‘{ c4   d e }’
and:

{ c4   d
   e   }

Of course, the previous example is hard to read. A good rule of thumb is to
indent code blocks with two spaces:

{
  c4 d e
}

The variable is finished when the pair of enclosed brackets finishes,
multiple lines and all :

namedMusic = { 

.
.

.


}

Re: Cannot use \layout in a variable

[ptoye]

Thanks all for putting me right. I have to say that the documentation is very
confusing as to the syntax. From the Learning manual:

which implies that the brackets are needed, but it's followed by:

and later by:

which don't have the brackets. 

How does the parser know when the variable definition has finished if it can
be on multiple lines?

Thanks, but in this case I'm more interested in why what I wrote doesn't
work.

I cannot get your version of the extension to show up at all in LibreOffice
5 in Windows 10. If I revert to an older "official" version of the OOo, it
shows up correctly in add-ons.

Not sure why but as of now nothing I can do will make your modified version
of OOoLilyPond show up in Windows LibreOffice. 

Even from the extension manager, it shows a blank instance listed of
"OOoLilyPond" with no other information (which is normally would with older
version). Do you know what could cause this or how to fix?

Please ask on the guile mailing list!  I currently don't have time to
do it by myself.

Re: Which Linux distro for Lilypond

[Knut Petersen]

Hi Werner!

*If* we bundle guile 1.8 with lilypond, I strongly prefer static
linking of the library (this is, adding `--disable-shared' to guile's
configure script, together with a proper argument to the
`--datarootdir' option to install the .scm files under a lilypond
directory).  This avoids *any* problems with different guile library
versions, and the created lilypond binary can peacefully coexist with
guile 2.0 even in the `/usr' tree.


Using a guile 1.8.8 built with --disable-shared building of lilypond fails 
early:

   chmod 755 out/lilypond-invoke-editor
   echo /home/knut/sources/lily/build/scripts/build/out/help2man
   /home/knut/sources/lily/build/scripts/build/out/help2man
   /home/knut/sources/lily/build/scripts/build/out/help2man 
out/lilypond-invoke-editor > out/lilypond-invoke-editor.1
   help2man: can't get `--help' info from out/lilypond-invoke-editor
   Try `--no-discard-stderr' if option outputs to stderr

Running build/scripts/out/lilypond-invoke-editor gives a hint:

   ERROR: In procedure dynamic-link:
   ERROR: file: "libguile-srfi-srfi-1-v-3", message: "file not found"

Ok, we don't really need it, so a brutal fix is to simply remove the srfi 
modules from that file... that works.

After that the build does not succeed, but it fails after building the binary.

Executing the lilypond binary gives

   GNU LilyPond 2.19.55
   /home/knut/sources/guile18built/share/guile/1.8/srfi/srfi-1.scm:223:1: In procedure dynamic-link 
in expression (load-extension "libguile-srfi-srfi-1-v-3" "scm_init_srfi_1"):
   /home/knut/sources/guile18built/share/guile/1.8/srfi/srfi-1.scm:223:1: file: 
"libguile-srfi-srfi-1-v-3", message: "file not found"

Ok, let's look at srfi-1.scm line 221..223:

   ;; Load the compiled primitives from the shared library.
   ;;
   (load-extension "libguile-srfi-srfi-1-v-3" "scm_init_srfi_1")

Could it be that --disable-shared kills support of required modules? Is there a 
known workaround?

cu,
 Knut
