Lilypond on Leopard - who has it working?

2007-12-16 Thread Sven Axelsson
OK, I know. The standard reply to the Lilypond vs. Lopard question is compile it yourself. I could do that, but I believe it is a bit more complicated than just make sudo make install so it wold be easier if someone who has done this already could make an unofficial build available.

textspanner too short

Hi lilyponders I'm having some trouble with the textspanner line. In the following example: \version 2.10.33 \paper { raggedright = ##f } \score{ \new Staff{ {e''8.[ c''16] b'8.[ c''16] \once \override TextSpanner #'edge-text = #'(III . ) \once \override TextSpanner #'direction = #1 \once

VoltaBracket padding

Hi lilyponders I don't know why the voltabracket is printed on the text. Anyway the manual padding is not working. \version 2.10.33 \paper { raggedright = ##f } \score{ \new Staff{ c'4 c' c' c' \override VoltaBracket #'padding = #5 \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta 1.)) f c' f' a' c''

moving dynamics

Dear Lilypondusers, I have a problem with moving the dynamics generally. I dont't understand why this doesnt make any effect: dynamik = { \override DynamicLineSpanner #'padding = #-2.0 \override DynamicText #'padding =#2.1 s1\f s1*10 s1\setTextCresc s1*3 s1\ff} \score { \new PianoStaff \new

If you tell what you want to achieve, it's much easier to provide a relevant answer. Also, it helps if the example code you include in your email can be compiled as it is. However, as far as I can remember, there's no point in specifying a padding value less than 0. Also, I hope you have noticed

Removing time signatures (yet again!)

2007-12-16 Thread Bob Harvey
Hi, Please forgive my limited understanding of musical notation and scoring -- I am very new to this whole area, so my use of terminology might be clumsy or incorrect. I have explored several of the different approaches, that I have found in these lists, to removing the time signature.

Re: Removing time signatures (yet again!)

2007-12-16 Thread Mats Bengtsson
You have misunderstood the syntax. Just move the \once \override commands within the curly braces, i.e. keep them together with the actual music. By the way, are you sure that you want to use the \once, which means that the time signature will only be removed on the first staff line, not later
