Is there a file like makam.ly for the standard accidentals? If so what is its name? What is the name of the file that translate text to Unicode? Thank you, ƒg

Frescobaldi Music View

Howdy Frescobaldi users -- after a recent update to v3 and v3.1, the music view now defaults to 100%. It did not use to do this. Everytime I open a score, I now have to set the view to Page or Width, etc. I cannot find a Configuration option to tell Music View my preferred view (Page). Am I

Thanks everyone! It took me several hours to work out how to get from the examples David directed me to in the Docs to a MWE that had the lyrics where I wanted them to be to using that structure into my existing score, but I did do it. Guy Stalnaker jimmyg...@gmail.com On Sat, Jan 11, 2020 at

Display of notes when using reduced line count in staff

Pardon my base ignorance, but when using a reduced line count of 2 lines for a treble staff instead of five, the middle C position apparently moves. I can't quite figure this out. I suppose the behavior is entirely obvious to some, but I can't get my head around it. There is very little discussion

Re: Ambrosian Chant Notation

Hi Zvony, No doubt somebody here will have all the code to do this already, but it's really interesting I think. It's easy to make a system with only two staff lines, and I think the black bars can be simply done with a custom notehead, as you suspect. I'll have a look into it. Fascinating. Are

Re: Work structure question

Guy, When you want help on the list, the best thing to do is to set up a compilable tiny example: http://lilypond.org/tiny-examples.html If you do that, then we can just make the needed changes. Pseudocode like you wrote in your email is hard to give good answers about. But I’ll show you a

Hello Michael and Andrew, please look at this (2.19.83): { \once \override DynamicText.extra-offset = #'(-2 . -3) a'\p\< a' a' a'\ff } Obviously, the hairpin is not automatically moved so to be aligned with the moved DynamicText. I wonder if is there a way to achieve this. Best, P On

Re: Hairpin position

Hi Paolo, You have not told us what you are trying to achieve in clear terms. But if you want to move dynamics, the following function I use works fine, and the hairpin naturally adapts. But show us a diagram of what you need. Andrew % \version "2.21.0" % dynamics offset doff =
