Stemless notes - entire score?

2013-03-19 Thread SoundsFromSound
Hi there, I have a situation here with a few pieces in which I need to 'convert' every note of these scores into a stemless note. What's the most efficiently-coded and straight approach for wrapping the entire score with some sort of stem off command? Is this possible? I hope I don't have to

Hi Ben, just add \context { \Staff \override Stem #'transparent = ##t \override Flag #'transparent = ##t } to the layout block. If there's anything else you'd like to hide, just set the respective property transparent as well ... Best, Robert On Tue, Mar 19, 2013,

There are a couple of peculiar side effects. I find that using this turns off the bar count engraver and it also defeats \improvisationOn resulting in regular notes instead of parallelogram note heads. The easy workaround is to use \jazzOff before \improvisationOn. The appearance of the

Hi, I'm a little late. There is a bug in PyQt4 last version that prevents frescobaldi to run smoothy. There is a work around but you would need frescobaldi development version. That's why I didn't answer right away. I would recommend to install qt4-mac (aqua) instead of the X11 version. This

2013-03-19 Thread Kieren MacMillan
Hello all, While answering Helge's post about multi-measure rests, I had a couple of R-elated observations/thoughts: 1. We shouldn't be encouraging code like R4*3 in a 4/4 measure, right? So the duration ultimately makes no sense anyway. 2. The most elegant solution would be to use R (i.e.,

Hi Shane, What happens when we need an awkward length R like R1*12/8*14? I'm not sure what you mean by awkward length… I'm suggesting that R (with no duration given) should give you a one-measure multi-measure rest, regardless of what the measure duration is. And that Rx (where x is an

Even while I am a bit sceptical whether the syntax for R should differ from r, I see your point. Rather than R14 for a 14 measure rest, I would suggest to keep the syntax close to the one before: R*14 (This way I would almost be convinced ;) ) Could the duration be optional this way, keeping the
