Re: Markup wrap at the end of the line

2019-03-16 Thread Saul Tobin
I agree that when a long markup stretches the measure at the end of a line, it suggests that there may be better ways of laying out the line breaks. Perhaps there should be a penalty for stretched measures due to markup in Lilypond's line breaking algorithm? Saul On Sat, Mar 16, 2019, 6:34 PM

Hi edes, Look at LSR 829. This is exactly your case, and what I was saying, The line break is such that the very long text is all on one line. I believe this is the conventional way to handle this. Andrew ___ lilypond-user mailing list

Hi edes, Well, if absolute line breaking is not important in your score, you could always put a break in front of the bar with the long text. In terms of engraving, which to me is all about clarity for musicians to read, you don't see many examples of this, as it is indeed hard to read a note

I am now using edition-engraver and page-layout. I am overwhelmed by the sheer brilliance of this code. Thanks Jan-Peter and Urs and others! Is there an option to switch off the 'trying...' messages and on on? It's annoying when using gvim and make as it just causes one to have to quit 'more' and

HI Yerko, and welcome. Can I make the politest suggestion? People on the list always object when I say how I think things should be done, but this file is illegible and unwieldy, with very, very long lines, making it a really hard slog to help you. A good practice is to have each bar on one line.

Hello All, I do once more apologize for my silly mistake about apparmor. As repentance, I have looked into all the issues Federico mention and solved the issue. In short, you have to create an apparmor profile for lilypond-wrapper.guile (it's not very hard to do - there are utilties to assist.)

Hi David, I made a mistake here - total lack of comprehension on my part. Not taking the time to study the format of the apparmor profile files, I misunderstood that the '#" in the '#include' was a comment character that had to be removed to activate the line. The comment character is '#' but
