Re: My finances for working on LilyPond

2015-10-27 Thread Bruno Ruviaro

Hi David,

Please let me know via separate e-mail how I can donate.

And below is a suggestion of an alternative funding mechanism for you to
consider in the future.

It seems to me that Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/) might be a good
system in your case. (disclaimer: I have never used it myself, but I know
the founder and trust him, and I find the concept very interesting).

Patreon allows you to charge your supporters "per creation": in the case of
software development it would probably be the "release" or announcement of
a number of significant commits accumulated over a month or two. If you get
a number of happy Lilypond users to become your regular "patrons", you'd
get a more or less predictable and constant stream of support -- without
having to remind people to donate every time. For example, if I were your
supporter on the website, every time you make a release, Patreon would
automatically charge me a fixed amount (I decide how much), notify me of
your latest work, and transfer the money to you (minus Patreon's fee of
5%). From the patron side, a nice thing is that I can establish a cap for
my monthly donations (in case you do more releases in a month that I could
"afford").

Anyway, just an idea.

Thanks for your work on Lilypond. I only became a more serious user in the
last few months, and I can say I am a happy Lilypond user.

Bruno

Re: extending an OttavaBracket to the left?

2015-08-16 Thread Bruno Ruviaro

Thanks, Andrew. I will try 2.19.25 in my next project -- I'd rather not
upgrade now in the middle of the current work. But good to know that the
ottava solution (and others) will be simpler!

 Hi Bruno,

 For what it is worth, just using the shorten-pair property for
 OttavaBracket works fine in 2.19.25, with no hacks needed.

 I know you are on 2.18.2. I can honestly say that I pound 2.19 with a
 mighty and heavy hammer on immensely complex keyboard music scores and I
 have only ever encountered two very minor bugs. Consider upgrading – there
 are dozens of advantages.

extending an OttavaBracket to the left?

2015-08-12 Thread Bruno Ruviaro

Hi
 all
,


Is there a simpler way to extend an ottava bracket a bit to the left?

In the snippet below, the first bar is the default p
lacement with no tweaks
. The second bar achieves what I want by adapting the example Modifying
the Ottava spanner slope
 from the documentation. Is it an overkill though? Is there a shorter way
to access the same parameter?

I tried something like \override Staff.OttavaBracket.shorten-pair = #'(-5 .
0) but found this affects only the line, not the text 8va.

Thanks in advance for any help!

 This is a little bit funny, but it works almost equally well for the case
 you show (and with fewer lines of code):

 {
   \time 6/8
   e' g' c''8\arpeggio\pp\[
   as' cs'' fs''\arpeggio
   ef'' af'' c'''\arpeggio
   \ottava 1

 *  \override Staff.OttavaBracket.shorten-pair = #'(-6 . -0.6)   \set
 Staff.ottavation = #8va  *
   as'' cs''' fs'''\arpeggio
   e''' g''' c\arpeggio
   b''' e g b]\mf\arpeggio \ottava 0
 }

 I found that you adjust the number of spaces after 8va and then tweak
 the first value of shorten-pair to match.

 HTH,
 Abraham
