Re: proportional notation screws up score

2006-12-03 Thread Orm Finnendahl
Hi Trevor, thanks for the reply. When the piece is done it can be used for documentation. True proportional notation isn't exactly what I need and is far from desirable as the accidentals would always collide with barlines etc. I made much better experiences with shifting or removing extra

for the notice, I'll look into it. Proportional Notation in lilypond is far from what the name suggests: The output often is a mess (measures, which are too short (like 1/8) resulting in the previous measure to stretch out all the way to the right margin and such things...) I'm constantly changing

changing proportional notation duration in mid-line

Hi, I would like to change the amount of horizontal space for a specified duration in the middle of a line (reflecting a tempo change) globally (without having to deal with compress music for each staff). Is there a way to override the setting of Score.proportionalNotationDuration on the fly, or

help with uneven proportional notation

2006-10-13 Thread jim altieri
Hello, I'm new to lilypond, and apologize if this is a simple question. I've searched the documentation and the online archives, and I can't seem to figure out what the problem is. I have a piece in proportional-time notation, yet some of the notes do not seem to be evenly spaced.

I don't understand exactly how the value of proportionalNotationDuration influences the result, but I managed to get nicely spaced notes in your example if I - replaced the note durations c4*105 - c4*105/840, ..., c4*420 - c4*420/840 (I guess you can figure out why I choose 840). - used
