It works. :)

Have you seen the LilyPond Learning Manual?



That is a good starting point.

What bugs in the interface app? What do you mean by interface app?

Welcome to Lilypond, in any case!

I have some newbie Questions foe you guys :)
I have been toying around with the program for 2 days and it does look 
pretty good besides the bugs in the interface app.
But I am running Win7 and I guess that is most likely bot supported 
anymore.

Anyway, its moving forward but now I first need to see if this works!

Teaching

[Calvin Ransom]

Hi everyone,
I am a grade 11 student at my high school attempting to teach the junior band 
at my school the basics of LilyPond. Each student has a chorale book and they 
are each choosing a short chorale from it to engrave. I would like to show them 
examples of the immense capabilities LilyPond has. If you have any examples 
please email me.

You can try this for spanners with end and inner text:

Many thanks, Jean and Leo (and in advance any other repliers). This is a big 
help. Best to all.

Re: Can I switch off automatic repetition of spanner text?

[Leo Correia de Verdier]

There are also functions written that create this kind of spanners, for 
instance at 
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2013-05/msg00405.html
(I think there might also be a newer version, but I’m not sure)
This has the benefit that the words in the spanner are not forced to align with 
notes.

Best!

Greetings, all.

I have searched for help on this and failed to find. Please would someone tell 
me how to suppress automatic repetition of spanner text (where the spanner 
reaches a new line)? Repetition appears to be the default. I have not seen such 
repetition in my sheet music (except for ottava markings) and, now that I am 
writing my own music, the repetition has a tendency to interfere with my 
paradigm. I am happy for the spanner’s dashes to continue from line to line, 
but I would like a way to switch off the repetition of text.

By the way... Checking my sheet music just now, I noticed (in Ravel) that there 
is another method for spanning text: breaking up the words into letters or 
groups of letters, to make the words last throughout the span. Does Lilypond 
have any facility for this?

Best wishes,

Matthew



Hello,

To suppress the repetition, adjust bound-details.left-broken.text,
which by default is taken from bound-details.left.text.

\version "2.22.0"

{
  c1
    \tweak bound-details.left.text "Crescendo poco a poco"
    \tweak bound-details.left-broken.text ""
    \startTextSpan
  \repeat unfold 20 { c1 }
  1\stopTextSpan
}

There is currently no proper way to intersperse words throughout a
text spanner. A clever workaround was suggested by David Kastrup
on issue 3373 (https://gitlab.com/lilypond/lilypond/-/issues/3373):

\version "2.22.0"

\new Score \with {
  \override SpacingSpanner.spacing-increment = 3
}
<<
  \new Lyrics \lyricmode {
    \override LyricText.font-shape = #'italic
    \override LyricHyphen.dash-period = 3
    \override LyricHyphen.Y-offset = #-0.5
    Crescendo1 --
    poco --
    a --
    poco
  }
  {
    c1 1 1 1

Can I switch off automatic repetition of spanner text?

Greetings, all.
