Re: SystemStartBar on one-staff systems

2007-10-16 Thread Risto Vääräniemi
Tack så mycket, Mats, I'll be waiting for the release with great interest. :-) Can you already tell if the first barline is enabled by setting the SystemStartBar #'collapse-height property to some value below 5 or is the syntax different from the one used in SystemStartBracket? -Risto Mats

Repeats alternative endings

Dear all, could anybody please help me with the following problem: I'm trying to typeset a fragment with 3 repeats and 1 alternative ending but I get syntax errors. What's wrong with this syntax? frag = { \key d \minor% \set TabStaff.stringTunings = #'(+2 -3 -7 -12 -17 -24)%Dropped

Sorry, my fault! When I compile the example on its own than everything works perfectly (version 2.11.34). (I compiled it several times with a couple of other fragments. The error must be in one of the fragments that are compiled before this one. Strange enough the error seems to influence only

The extra-offset solves the problem of closeness between the arpeggio itself and the notes. if the fingering is oriented right, the fingering numbers are still far away. and even with extra-offset on the fingering, there will still be a visible gap between everything (fingers arpeggio and notes)

Sorry - probably didn't explain very clearly. I couldn't get your code snippet to work - the slurs don't seem to print at all. When I was playing around with it, however, I found something in the reference and managed to get what I wanted with: % Scottish Bowing - use for straight slurs, hack

Rene, thank you for that example. It works nicely, except on lines where the refrain is by itself. On those lines, the extra space is inserted even though it isn't needed. Here is the output PDF: http://hymns.reactor-core.org/lilypond/refrain-rene.pdf I changed the value 7.4 to 8 to get the
