Re: lilypond-windows.exe does nothing
Just FYI, I'm running Windows 10 and Lilypond 2.20 (and 2.21) and lilypond-windows -h does nothing as you say. But if I call lilypond-windows test.ly then it creates test.pdf Also running it via Frescobaldi v3.1.2 works perfectly. I tried to change lilypond-windows.exe to lilypond.exe in Frescobaldi and that worked also... // Anders On 2020-10-03 09:20, Paul McKay wrote: I'm trying to upgrade from 2.19 to 2.20 on a laptop running Win 10.

Done- thanks. I do remember feeling (a very long time ago like version 12?) overwhelmed by the number of emails received that's probably why I changed it, not understanding that it would cripple being able to access the links.

Thanks for this. I'm not doing what you assumed. I get the 'digest' via email and that is where I see the links at the end of many of the queries/responses. Sorry. I assumed you would understand that digests are intrinsically emails, designed for people whose systems struggle with large numbers of individual posts. It's been so long that I even went to the places you mention that I no longer have a record of logging in or password etc. You don't need it. I gave you the link, and I know that you can ascertain the email address that the digests are being sent to. I hope that this is the answer to the suggestion/question you raise. Perhaps it is not possible to access those links from the email? Time was when people communicated with list servers by means of commands that looked like an adventure game: pickup sword, kill giant, etc. Typically, you can still unsubscribe in that manner, but most interactions are nowadays done through a browser. So please visit the link and press the button. (Not a lot to ask.) Everything you need will then be available. I could do the first step for you, but the result might be misinterpreted as a phishing attempt, so I won't. Cheers, David.

Re: Notation on page 2 of same score
Hi David,
Am 03.10.20 um 06:43 schrieb David Wright:
Alternatively, you can use \set associatedVoice to switch voices, or
yet again, a NullVoice, which is somewhat similar to the suggestion below.
These have the advantage of not affecting any MIDI you might require.
Yes, \set associatedVoice is handy sometimes, good idea :-).
If you have no reason to stick with 2.18.2, you can \addlyrics to
the staff, ie both voices. I've commandeered the revised version
to illustrate.
That's really interesting - I must have missed that change. To wit:
\version "2.19"
\new Staff <<
\relative { c''4 b c2 } \\
\relative { g'2 e4 c4 } \\
>> \addlyrics { One two three four. }
Amazing. Thanks!
And another clarification: \addlyrics \with { ... } is also a
construction that needs current Lilypond. 2.18.2 knows \addlyrics but
doesn't accept context modification by \with. Try compiling
\version "2.18.2"
\new Staff \relative { c'4 d e2 }
\addlyrics { I will work. }
\new Staff \relative { c'4 d e2 }
\addlyrics \with { \override LyricText.font-size = 5 }
{ Will I work? }
with 2.18.2 and 2.20.
The words needed some syllables added, as there has
to be a one for each and every moment (a note in either part).
Otherwise, just the upper part of the ChoirStaff needed modification.
Ah, if I understand correctly, that is the drawback of the \new Staff {
... } \addlyrics approach?
Best

ditto.
Setting the page headers will probably do what you want, achieved by
adding some extra lines to the \paper block. The page number and the
title from the header block are printed in my example. The two items are
mirrored on alternate pages to keep the page number on the outside

\paper {

right-margin = \left-margin

\set Staff.timeSignatureFraction = 4/4
Dear all, Is it possible to undo or stop "\set Staff.timeSignatureFraction = 4/4” halfway a score? I’m presently transcribing, from a facsimile, an Aria of Sigismondo D'India with three sections: a first aria, a recitative and a second aria. The first aria and the recitative have \time 8/4 but the facsimile shows C (timesig c44) at the beginning and therefore I added \set Staff.timeSignatureFraction = 4/4. The final aria however has \time 3/2 and in the facsimile it shows “3” in both staves so I marked it as " \override Staff.TimeSignature.style = #'single-digit", adding \time 3/2. That did not work because of "\set Staff.timeSignatureFraction = 4/4" at the beginning. Hence my question. Thanks in advance for any advice. Best regards. Robert Blackstone

lilypond-windows.exe does nothing
I'm trying to upgrade from 2.19 to 2.20 on a laptop running Win 10. Uninstalled lilypond and Frescobaldi. Reinstalled 2.20. Loaded .ly file. Asked to engrave it. It worked but there were errors in the .ly file. Fixed them. Asked to engrave it. Nothing happened. Repeatedly … No other files would engrave. Uninstalled Frescobaldi. Manually deleted all references to it from the registry. Reinstalled it. No change. Tried to run lilypond manually.

Manually removed most mentions in the registry. Downloaded it again and reinstalled. It still does nothing whenever Frescobaldi or I try run it.

Dimensions vs outline
Hi List,
I'm trying to understand the difference between "outline" and "dimensions":
\version "2.20.0"
\markup {
"1234"
\combine
\filled-box #'(-1 . 4) #'(-1 . 2.5) #1
\override #'(style . outline)
\override #'(thickness . 3)
\whiteout
\with-outline "555" "5" "6789"
}
\markup {
"1234"
\combine
\filled-box #'(-1 . 4) #'(-1 . 2.5) #1
\override #'(style . outline)
\override #'(thickness . 3)
\whiteout
\with-dimensions-from "555" "5" "6789"
}
Can anyone show me a clearer example?
TIA, cheers,
Pierre
