I think that the problem Jay/Sam is referring to is that the list is so
busy (surely a good thing) that several digests per day are sent out.

On Saturday 3rd November, for instance, I received 14 digests.  These
contained a total of 52 separate messages.  Sending one daily digest
would obviously mean that all 52 messages appeared in one massive
email.

There does seem to be something odd about the way the issue of a digest
is triggered though: one of Saturday's digests contained 8 messages,
another contained just 1.  This variability happens all the time, and
it does not appear to be related to the length of the individual
messages.

Is is possible to tweak the list-issuing software either to standardize
the timing of new digests (e.g. once per day, or perhaps once every 6
hours); or alternatively to issue a digest once the number of emails or
their total length has reached a certain level?

I have got used to the apparently random frequency and length of the
digests, but I can quite see that it might annoy some people.

Getting the size, offset, and spacing of the brace can take a little

Re: emails innummerable

I actually sent you a message to which I've not seen a reply.

By the time I saw your (first) message and could check your list settings,
your address was set for "digest".  Have you changed that recently (i.e.
since October 29) when you sent your first message (with a different name
"Jay" and email address)?

emails innummerable

[Sam Frybyte]

Hi- this is not quite off-topic.
I (and assume we) at one time were able to get a once a day list off
all the questions/answers, in one email.
That is clearly not the case any longer.
But.
The current method means that my mailbox receives 10+ emails a day
often about the same issue between the same two people.

It seems inefficient and redundant and I wish the manager could
provide the daily again.

I've tried writing to that person (who is it now?) and gotten no response.

Does anyone else feel this way?  If not then it's moot but I am
beginning to regret being on the list.

You likely use 2.18.2
With this version the possibility to use optional arguments is limited
and does not work for the current coding.

Please consider to upgrade to 2.19.82.

If you want to stay with 2.18 some adjustments in the function are
needed, also, the function must be called with _two_ arguments: the
padding-value and the markup-text.

\version "2.18.2"

annotatedSlur =
#(define-music-function (parser location padding text) (number? markup?)
   #{
 \once \override Slur.after-line-breaking =
 #(lambda (grob)
(let*
 ((stencil (ly:slur::print grob))
  (dir (ly:grob-property grob 'direction))
  (markup-stencil (grob-interpret-markup grob text))
  (shift (- (interval-center (ly:stencil-extent stencil X))
   (interval-center (ly:stencil-extent markup-stencil X
  (new-stencil
   (ly:stencil-combine-at-edge
stencil
Y dir
(ly:stencil-translate-axis markup-stencil shift X)
padding)))
 (ly:grob-set-property! grob 'stencil new-stencil)))
   #})

  \annotatedSlur

Hi Urs and Torsten,

This snippet is exactly what I need. I'm trying to test it, but when I copy

it I receive this error:

 error: syntax error, unexpected LYRIC_ELEMENT

Hi Harm,


But I think we're talking about different things.  You're talking
about communications on an official channel connected with the
project.  I'm talking about posting code which modifies LilyPond on a
third-party forum -- GitHub.

Hi David,

is it really an issue I have to think about licenses as soon as I use
some lily-internals?
For example, whenever I propose a callback with some condition using
'ly:grob-set-property!' and the like...

In a worst scenario that would drop any user support other than:
"RTFM" (or more polite: it's in the docs, look "here".)
Or
"It's not in the docs, please file a bug report."
Or
"You could do like below [...]. Please accept my licence: "

Really?


Best,

How can I add a temporary pedal bar

Hi Gert,

I suppose you're talking about a temporary stave.
The following snippet should solve your problem:
Adding an extra staff


You can create additional staves anywhere by just adding a \new Staff in a
(temporary) parallel context (i.e. in << >>).


In addition, if you do not mind having the extra staff always for a 
whole system (which probably doesn't make much of a difference 
space-wise), it's probably even easier to just add an extra staff from 
the beginning and use \Remove[All]EmptyStaves:


\version "2.19.80"

<<
  \new PianoStaff \with { instrumentName = "Manual" } <<
    \new Staff { \repeat unfold 180 c''4 }
    \new Staff { \clef bass \repeat unfold 180 c4 }
  >>
  \new Staff \with {
    instrumentName = "Pedal"
    shortInstrumentName = "Ped."
    \RemoveAllEmptyStaves
    % alternatively, if you want to indicate right from the start the a 
pedal staff is coming up somewhere:

    % \RemoveEmptyStaves
  } {
    \clef bass
    R1*25
    \repeat unfold 12 c4
    R1*10
  }
>>

Best
Lukas

Hi Andrew,

Whether the \global information is printed four times or not solely depends
on the actual contents of the \global variable. Being used to
single-instrument music, you might not be fully aware of the difference
between \Score and \Staff level (if you only have one \Staff, you won't
notice a difference).

TimeSignature, MetronomeMark, RehearsalMark, etc., are defined on \Score
level and that's the reason why they are not being printed four times: they
just go on top of the score.
Nevertheless they should be included in all the staves because they are
needed in the individual parts and it is easy to find errors (if these
events do not happen simultaneously, you will be able to immediately
recognize it in the score).

If, however, the \global variable contains TextScripts, just to name an
example, these TextScripts will actually be printed four times, because
TextScript is defined on \Staff level.


BTW: I usually specify instrumentName/shortInstrumentName in the \score
block. They often need some markup tweaking, the appropriate indent value of
the score plays a role, I don't have to hassle with too many \tags and,
finally, they are not needed at all in the parts.
In the parts, the instrument will go into the instrument header property
instead.
But, as always, there are many ways to go...

HTH,
Torsten

Yes, it does somewhat depend on what you put in global. I do something like 
this:

global = {
  \time 4/4
  \tempo 4=72
  s1*4
  \bar "||"
  \time 3/4
  \tempo 4=96
  s1*3/4*12
  \bar "|."
}

% define violinone. violintwo, viola, cello

\book {
  \bookOutputName "score"
  \score {
\new Score {
  <<
\new Dynamics \global
\new Staff \violinone
\new Staff \violintwo
\new Staff \viola
\new Staff \cello
  >>
}
  }
}

\book {
  \bookOutputName "violinone"
  \score {
\new Score {
  <<
\new Dynamics \global
\new Staff \violinone
  >>
}
  }
}

Thanks David, Harm, and Ben for reminding me of the frameEngraver - this is 
exactly what I need. And yes, David, it would be great to have all your code 
available somewhere, I hope you can work out the best way to do this.

Cheers,

Pardon me. Ignore question 2. I had failed to write the correct code as per
the template example. Apologies for that particular noise.

Score and parts with global variable

[Andrew Bernard]

After a long time using lilypond, for solo instrumental music exclusively,
now setting a string quartet for the first time and needing score and
parts. I confess that I am confused about using a global variable for tempo
indications and so on and so forth. Two newbie questions.

1.

In the NR template for a SQ with part this is given:

music = {
  <<
\tag #'score \tag #'vn1
\new Staff \with { instrumentName = "Violin 1" }
<< \global \Violinone >>

\tag #'score \tag #'vn2
\new Staff \with { instrumentName = "Violin 2" }
<< \global \Violintwo>>

\tag #'score \tag #'vla
\new Staff \with { instrumentName = "Viola" }
<< \global \Viola>>

\tag #'score \tag #'vlc
\new Staff \with { instrumentName = "Cello" }
<< \global \Cello >>
  >>
}

I am unable to understand why the \global information does not print four
times. How does this work? The template by the way does not give example
code for the \global variable.

2.

I want to have parts that also contain all the tempo indications and markup
in the  \global variable. It's beyond me how to make this happen. When I
add \global to the parts I get an extra unwanted staff.

I have not provided an MWE because all my code is simply rubbish at this
stage and I don't want to waste people's time looking at it. I just need
some conceptual guidance I think. I searched the user archives to the best
of my ability and there are threads that partially touch on this but I am
none the wiser.

For now I want to stick with the tag approach rather than the edition
engraver, unless what I want can't be done that way.
