I don't understand the behaviour of this code:

The result is:

When I want to try a lilypond snippet using Frescobaldi, I normally create

it for me in a temporary folder (in my Frescobaldi settings I have "Save

My question is off topic. I hope it will not be a problem.
The following is one excerpt from the Sitt book, 20 studies in Double Stops.
Why in the first three measures the G, D and A are written as g4~4~4~4 d
4~4~4~4 a4~4~4~4 instead of g1 d1 a1? Any idea?

This is more a notation question than a lilypond question.
Does exist a standard fingering notation to indicate that a note can be

but I'm not sure this is correct.

This code generate a midi file where the first and last measure are played

Sorry to bother with a simple question. Why this does not work?
\version "2.19.81"
pit = #(define-music-function
(p) (ly:pitch?)
#{ $p #}
)
{ \pit c' }
Changing the body to
#{ $p $p #}
or
#{ $pit 4 #}
or
#{ $p a' #}
it works

Is there any scheme function returning the number of beats and the duration
of each beat of the mesure where the function is invoked?
For instance, I would like this code..
\version "2.19.81"
{
\time 3/4
\writeBeats \writeBeatDuration
a4 b a %just some music
\time 4/4
\writeBeats \writeBeatD
This code define a variable containing a duration and the use it:
\version "2.19.81"
#(define myDuration (ly:make-duration 4 0))
{ a\myDuration}
I can do something similar wit fingering:

For example, if I write:

Few days ago I asked how to get the number of beats and the duration of
each beat of a measure.
The reason was that I wanted to try to write some facilities to add a
ticktock measure at the beginning of a score:

To avoid having one or two staves on last page, I use often page-count.
Unfortunately this often cuts the bottom of the page (the tagline or some
notes).
Today I tried to understand better the problem, checking the printable area
of the printer, playing with annotate-spacing, margin etc,. And I

This code write some fingering on "b" pitch.
\version "2.19.82"
{b4\finger\markup {2 \circle 3 2} \prall}
.. and here it is the result:

This is ok except the fact that the elements 2 (3) 2 are written not enough
close each other.
How can I make them more close like in the fo

I would like to create a footnote attached to a fingering. Ideally
something like this
\version "2.19.82"
{b\finger "2*"}

... and then in the footnote I would like to give some indication about the
fingering.
I saw the footnote examples but I have not been able to attach the

Ciao Peter,
I know this is a totally different story but I suggest also to give a try
to avoid the "\relative" and to use absolute octave entry. It takes some
weeks to get used but in my opinion it is more easy to manage code in this
way. IMHO "\relative" is too much prone to annoying mistakes and
Few months ago I switched from relative to absolute octave entry.
In the rare cases I need to write very high or very low octave notes and
consequently I need to write too much single quote ( ' ) or comma ( , ) I
use the "\fixed" function that I just discovered (before I was using
"\transpose")

I'm not an expert user. I have used relative and absolute entry and with
relative I makes mistakes more frequently and spend much time fixing it. I
personally consider these mistakes annoy

I have a problem with (the fantastic) addFingering snippet.
Here it is my simple code.
\version "2.19.54"
\include "addFingering.ly"
{
\addFingering {a b a b} #"12"
}
{
\addFingering {\repeat unfold 2 {a b}} #"12"
}
I expected that the two generated score would be exactly the same that i
I probably figured out the reason of this behavior. The function
"addFingering" is evaluated before evaluating the repeat. So lilypond
evaluate this
\addFingering {\repeat unfold 2 {a b}} #"12"
as
\repeat unfold 2 {a-1 b-2}
instead of
\addFingering {a b a b} #"12"
But why? Is it possibl
Thank you David Kastrup and Nalesnik and Gilles for you answer your help
and your explication!
I don't like the idea to use a custom repeat instead of the standard. But I
will make some test and see.
Thank you again!

Novice question. Attached it's a small music fragment from an harpe score.
How can I write it using lilypond?
Thank you, g.

Yes that's clear.
But
I'm sorry, clearly there is a misunderstanding and it is probably from my
side, my apologies.
Let's me try to explain what I mean. Try to have a look to this code and
the related output (it is attached).
\version "2.19.54"
\include "addFingering.ly"
fragment = {c' d' e' f'}
