evince handling textedit://
Hi guys..does anyone has any news on has evince handles textedit.. i found this post http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2007-06/msg00185.html from 2007 using gconftool-2 but couldn't get it working.. after i execute the gconftool-2 --install-schema-file=textedit.schemas i still get -- Unable to open external link Operation not supported like it didn't remove Evince ignores the embedded textedit:// urls by default, i use evince 3.4.0.. thanks in advance -- *Nesmotren govori kao da mačem probada, a jezik je mudrih iscjeljenje.

newbie guitar fingering layout question
Greetings! I'll introduce myself after asking my question. I'm new to Lilypond and have a question about laying out some fingering in guitar material for a new book I'm writing. I'm not neglecting the copious documentation, but I'm still on the learning curve for sure and have missed or misunderstood a lot as of yet. Using LilyPond 2.16.0, modified the scripts.scm definitions of \upbow and \downbow so they are DOWN instead of UP (couldn't see a way to do that in the score ... yes, I'm a newbie). The following small example produces a brace of standard notation and tablature: lilypond \new Staff { \clef treble_8 \set fingeringOrientations = #'(down) \set stringNumberOrientations = #'(up) \set strokeFingerOrientations = #'(down) % these are RH e\6\downbow-1 f\upbow-3 g\downbow-4 a\5\downbow-1 b\upbow-3 c'\downbow-4 d'\4\downbow-1 e'\upbow-3 f'\downbow-4 g'\3\downbow-1 a'\upbow-3 b'\2\downbow-1 c''\upbow-2 d''\downbow-4 e''\1\downbow-1 f''\upbow-2 g''\downbow-4 } \new TabStaff { \clef moderntab \set fingeringOrientations = #'(down) \set stringNumberOrientations = #'(up) \set strokeFingerOrientations = #'(down) % these are RH e\6 f\6 g\6 a\5 b\5 c'\5 d'\4 e'\4 f'\4 g'\3 a'\3 b'\2 c''\2 d''\2 e''\1 f''\1 g''\1 } /lilypond My main question is this: I'd like to have the bow and left-hand fingering and right-hand fingering appear in the space between the two staffs, in a straight line, so they can be seen easily by those reading either the standard staff above, or the tablature staff below. How to do? The staffs are in synch, so I just need to take the fingering info from the standard staff and push it down so it will line up underneath (and therefore between the two staffs.) As part of this, I'll need to figure out how to adjust the spacing between the staffs ... well really I have many things I need to learn how to do! to introduce myself: I'm a musician and scientist, published author and so forth. I got interested in computer music way back when and ended up working with Max Mathews at Bell Labs for seven years. The computer skills I learned I then used in human genome project. But now I'm back to full-time music. I've played with some names ... I'm fairly eclectic. I'm writing a large book on guitar technique, Sibelius didn't have what I needed so I'm turning to Lilypond which does. I like the edit-compile-run ; I'm trained in several computer languages. I'm developing Perl classes to process my Lilypond scores. I have programmed in Scheme but not recently, but it's a comfort to have a real programming language embedded. (Again, Sibelius with Manuscript seems a bit painful, although it is a nice WYSIWYG and has many excellent features.) Thanks and I'm glad I found this software and this community!

Just remembered that I wrote an engraver a while back which can draw lines between fingering numbers. I can't find the file in the archives, so I'll attach it again here. With this override (which uses a property defined in the file), glissando lines get moved from between their notes to the numbers: \override Glissando #to-fingerings = ##t You can control which fingerings the line goes between by setting glissandoMap. It's meant to connect fingering numbers, but you can hide the first number to mimic the effect of the function earlier in the thread.

lilypond-book
First of all I would like to thank everyone who have been so very helpful in responding to my latest email queries concerning Lilypond. I have at least one more (for now) and am getting rather frustrated with this one. I am quite new to lilypond-book, and am attempting to add a somewhat complex (but short) score to an existing LaTeX document. I want to add more short 'scores' to this document to include everything the Choir sings while (with LaTeX) having everything the Priest and Deacon says there as well. I am attaching 3 files that have chronicles my journey thus far. When I compile from the latex document using: /lilypond-book --pdf filename.lytex pdflatex filename.tex /I end up with a pdf with no music, just some code where the music should be.
