Hi, i have instructed the Evince PDF viewer to open the Emacs editor on clicking on objects using the lilypond-invoke-editor script, however this opens two same Emacs windows! Any idea why this happens? Cheers, Amir ... Amir Teymuri

Hello everyone, thanks for Your help. Sorry, that I couldn't clearly explain what I wanted, but Malte (fortunately) had the right idea: I wanted to have more place after the barline. The code > \once \override Staff.BarLine.extra-spacing-width = #'(0 . 11) > > did the right thing!

Re: Footnotes for subtitle

Hi Amir, to my knowledge, lilypond doesn't provide a linebreaking mechanism for text in a markup. You can either do the line breaking yourself using the \column feature of the markup command or you edit the markup in an external graphics program/publishing software which supports linebreaking

Re: How to draw a slur above beamed notes with their stems up.

Hi Richard, Thanks for your clarification. My problem is: How does one know at which moment something, for example a slur, or the call for the grob "slur", is started? A case in point is \arpeggio. Naively one may think this command has to be placed before the notes, not after. Wrong! No

Hi David, Thanks for your reply (and your admonition to read more carefully next time(s)). My problem with your advice "You have to use \slurUp at the moment a slur is _started_, not when it already had ended." was : How does a beginner know what is the right moment? Apparently for this

Hello Pierre, many thanks for your help. The line i am writing in there footnote is longer than one line and hence the remaining goes beyond the page. Do you know how to arrange the length of the footnotes to match into the page? Bests, Amir On Sun, 29 Jan 2017 09:13:26 +0100 Pierre

Dear all, In some passages like the one shown in the ME the composer (long dead) wants a slur positioned above the beam. {\clef "treble" \key b \minor \time 3/8 \stemUp 8 ( [ g''8 ) \slurUp 8 ] | % 137 \stemUp 8 \( [ g''8 \) \phrasingSlurUp 8 ]

Re: can't move note columns in both voices at beginning of a bar

Hi Stefan, There is something weird indeed with your example. I tested your ME by just adding it to some other file that was open and there my proposed tweak worked. But once I made a separate file of it, the tweak did no longer work: the note column was not shifted at all. Rather mysterious. So

Hi Stefan, Maybe I misunderstood what it is you want. Anyway, with \new Staff { \transpose c c' << { \First \First } \\ { \makespace \Second \makespace \Second } >> } the c in the first bar is also moved. Best regards, Robert Blackstone On 28 Jan 2017, at 18:16 , Stefan Thomas

Hi Amir, For some reason the LSR is not reachable for the moment but there is a snippet about footnotes in a header. Try: \version "2.18.2" \header { subtitle = "subtitle*" tagline = #f } \markup { \null \footnote \null \italic \concat { "*" \hspace #.3 "subtitle"}} Cheers, Cheers, Pierre
