Re: Tips on quick entry
Thanks to everyone for your suggestions! Ben: Yes, I do use Frescobaldi; it's definitely my editor-of-choice after trying several different solutions. My favorite thing about Frescobaldi is that it is lightweight... hopefully the long-term plans of adding lots more functionality to Frescobaldi do not make it unwieldy. Richard: Your video was really impressive. On my first try, however, Denemo was really frustrating. The tooltips took me at good 5-10 minutes to figure out, then every time I tried to connect my midi keyboard, it crashed. Perhaps I'll try again sometime soon. I'm sure that, like LilyPond, it's worth getting over the learning curve. David: I wish I could help with Frescobaldi development. Perhaps in the summers I will have time to work on learning enough to help. Nathan: I loved your suggestions, and after trying them this month, found they really helped me. I think I was so slow before because I would compile and check the output every few bars. When I put it all in quickly, then proof, it goes much faster. Thanks! Ivan: Thanks for your suggestion to use Vim. I've used Vim somewhat and like it for terminal editing. Frescobaldi is definitely my favorite right now, though. Thanks again everyone!

Re: Tips on quick entry
I know I am responding late to this, but you don't say what OS your are using or even what text editor. I am guessing that you are using some sort of simple text editor like NotePad or Gedit. My tip for quick data entry is to learn a Unix text editor such as Vi or Emacs (personally, I use Vi/Vim). There is a learning curve with Vi, but once you know what you are doing, entering/copying/manipulating text becomes lighting fast.

Cluster exapnded over two systems
Hello Lilypond users, i want to notate a cluster for piano reaching from b, to a'' expanding over both right- and lefthand systems. however i have found till know the \makeClusters command which doesn't look like what i am looking for. Can any one help? Thanks, Amir ...

All I can say is that it works perfectly for me. I'm using the pre-built
binary for 2.19.54, Ubuntu 16.04. 64-bit.
And while we are there: your solution seems to create a new book for
the score. Is that the case? How would one adapt it to incorporate the
score at top-level?
Here is a solution that returns a score from Scheme.
\version "2.19.54"
BlankStaff =
#(define-scheme-function (count) (integer?)
(let* ((blankstaff #{ \score { \repeat unfold #count { s1 \break } } #} )
(layout #{ \layout { \context { \Staff \remove
"Bar_engraver" } } #} ))
(ly:output-def-set-variable! layout 'indent (ly:mm 0))
(ly:output-def-set-variable! layout 'ragged-right #f)
(ly:score-add-output-def! blankstaff layout)
blankstaff
))
\BlankStaff 4

(More generally, why is it that painful to translate Lilypond
language to Scheme? I would have imagined that there would be some
(relatively) small number of primitive functions in the binary
exported from Scheme, and that Lilypond would be mainly a set of
macros on top of that - a la TeX and LaTeX. But the whole data
structures in ly/scm are completely different, and the syntax makes
absolutely no sense in either incarnation. Is there a design document
somewhere that I missed?)

Re: Note-heads not superimposed
Hi David,
David Sumbler wrote

it seems that the shift is caused by the invisible c notehead in your
temporary left hand voice:
\new Voice { \shiftOff \set tieWaitForNote = ##t
\hideNotes \stemUp s4.
\once \override TupletNumber.stencil = ##f
\tuplet 3/2 { c32~ g~ b~ } s16 < b g c> }
Replacing it by s32 prevents the shift.
I would prefer to work with less additional voices, e.g.:
%%
\version "2.19.48"
\language "english"
lv = \laissezVibrer
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = "RH" {
\set PianoStaff.connectArpeggios = ##t
\time 2/4 <<
{
\stemUp
e''2\arpeggio | s8
}
\new Voice {
\shiftOff \stemDown
< b' g'>4\arpeggio ~ \set tieWaitForNote = ##t
\stemUp \tuplet 12/8 {
32 b'\lv g'\lv e'\lv
\change Staff = LH b\lv g\lv
c g b
\change Staff = RH e'_~ g'
b'_~
} |
8-.
}
>>
\oneVoice 8-. 4\fermata \bar "||" |
}
\new Staff = "LH" {
\clef "bass" \time 2/4
<<
{
\shiftOff 4\arpeggio ~ \stemDown q8\noBeam
\set tieWaitForNote = ##t
\autoBeamOff
c8*1/6~ \hideNotes g8*1/6~ b8*1/6~ s16 \unHideNotes 8-.
}

\oneVoice < b b,>8-. < b e>4\fermata |

%%

Note-heads not superimposed
In the piece I am setting there is some perhaps slightly unorthodox
notation. One bar is still giving me a problem. I attach the output
of this and the following bar.
I am quite pleased with the result apart from one detail: the last
quaver of the first bar should appear as a single notehead on C. As it
is, 1 of the 2 noteheads is being shifted, despite my \shiftOff
instructions.
The code is this:
%%
\version "2.19.48"
\language "english"
lv = \laissezVibrer
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = "RH" {
\set PianoStaff.connectArpeggios = ##t
\time 2/4 <<
{ \stemUp
e''2\arpeggio | s8 }
\new Voice { \shiftOff \stemDown
4\arpeggio ~ \set tieWaitForNote = ##t
\stemUp \tuplet 12/8 { 32 b'\lv g'\lv e'\lv
\change Staff = LH b\lv g\lv
c g b
\change Staff = RH e'_~ g'
b'_~ } |
8-. } >>
\oneVoice 8-. 4\fermata \bar "||" |
}
\new Staff = "LH" {
\clef "bass" \time 2/4
<< { \shiftOff 4\arpeggio ~ \stemDown q8\noBeam c -.
}
\new Voice { \shiftOff \set tieWaitForNote = ##t
\hideNotes \stemUp s4.
\once \override TupletNumber.stencil = ##f
\tuplet 3/2 { c32~ g~ b~ } s16 }>>
\oneVoice 8-. 4\fermata |
}
>>
%%
How do I get the triplet demisemi and the quaver to share the same
notehead?
