Re: ANN: Spontini-Editor 1.0 released

[Saul Tobin]

Got it, thanks.

This particular project is quite large and can't be updated past 2.18 due
to a change in the behavior of staff changing during part combining, which
breaks the method I use for managing wind staves. I'm not aware of a way to
accomplish comparable functionality in 2.19 or newer. I spent a few months
a couple years ago trying to write a patch but I eventually gave up.

Re: Asterisk before first syllable of verse

[Carl Sorensen]

"*Vo" will put the asterisk before the first Syllable.

Subject: Asterisk before first syllable of verse

Hello all! I need there to be an asterisk before the first syllable of this 
verse, but I can't figure out how to make it work with also keeping the 
hyphenation of the word, and not bumping all the lyrics over one syllable... 
also, I dont use the \addLyrics command because the text and the music are 
actually saved as separate files and the command to combine them is elsewhere.


StanzaSix = \lyricmode {

\set stanza = "2."

\set language = "es"

\override StanzaNumber #'font-shape = #'italic

\override LyricText #'font-shape = #'italic

Vo -- so -- tros hi -- jos de~Is -- ra -- el,



Thank you!

Re: Asterisk before first syllable of verse

[Fernando Gil]

Does this help?


You'll need also to adjust to match your preference for that syllable

\once \override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #LEFT


StanzaSix = \lyricmode {

\set stanza = "2."

\set language = "es"

\override StanzaNumber #'font-shape = #'italic

\override LyricText #'font-shape = #'italic

\markup \concat {* \hspace #0.5 Vo} -- so -- tros hi -- jos de~Is -- ra --
el,

}

Re: How to merge three voices

[Knute Snortum]

Hi everyone,

Just for reference, what I was looking for is:

\override NoteColumn.ignore-collision = ##t

Putting that in one of the voices that needs a three-way merge solved
the problem.

--
Knute Snortum
\version "2.22.1"
\language "english"

staffUp   = \change Staff = "upper"
staffDown = \change Staff = "lower"

global = {
  \time 6/8
  \key ef \minor
}

rightHandUpper = \relative {
  \override NoteColumn.ignore-collision = ##t
  gf'4._~ gf4 f16 ef |
  bf'4. 
}

rightHandLower = \relative {
  s4. s4 s16 \hideNotes ef'~ \unHideNotes |
  ef2
}

rightHand = <<
  \global
  \new Voice { \voiceOne \rightHandUpper }
  \new Voice { \voiceTwo \rightHandLower }
>>

leftHandUpper = \relative {
  bf16-2 cf-1 a-3 cf-1 bf-2 gf-4  bf cf a cf bf \staffUp \voiceTwo ef |
  \staffDown \voiceThree cf16
}

leftHandLower = \relative {
  ef2. |
  f2. |
}

leftHand = <<

  \clef bass
  \new Voice { \voiceThree \leftHandUpper }
  \new Voice { \voiceFour \leftHandLower }

\new Staff = "upper" \rightHand
