Hi all, I'd just like to know if there is any command to create curved lines with arrows.The best solution would be to add arrows to \bendAfter, but I cannot find how to do it. Luca ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

I really like Lilypond, so congrats to everybody! But some errors are very frustrating.

RE: update objects
Thank you David, I recently introduced some arrowed micro-tonal notation to my file. In the file I was suggested the standard micro-tonal notation is replaced by the following code (example):(ceh . ,(ly:make-pitch -1 0 (/ FLAT 2)))They told me that to enable this symbol I have to update the arrowGlyphs. Alternatively I could use the standard symbol for representing quarter-tones, but I don't know how to produce it. I tried for example this:(ceh . ,(ly:make-pitch -1 0 (* FLAT 1/2)))but it doesn't work.So I now have arrowed-notation but I cannot reproduce anymore quarter-tone standard notation. This is why I would like to update "arrayGlyphs", but unfortunately I don't understand the "how to".

Hi list, I have tried all the following codes in my script, but none of them has worked. So I guess there are some problems inside my score. http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/flexible-vertical-spacing-within-systems Can someone give me some example or ideas of "what could break the command staff-staff-spacing" so to have a starting point from which beginning analyzing my score?

RE: staff-staff-spacing doesn't work
Ok, it seems that before I was doing something wrong the whole time, as I spent 30 minutes trying different combinations. But actually it works without problems.Sorry to everybody and thanks for replying.

Hi, If you only have one staff in your system then modifysystem-system-spacing instead. Apparently this is a common "misconception" on the French users mailinglist. Maybe this is here too. But this is just a guess, since you donot provide code showing your problem.

Install LilyBoulez or other alternative fonts on Ubuntu
Hello, I have searched for this information on READMEs, internet search engines and on previous Lilypond emails but I didn't understand how to move. I am on Ubuntu and I would like to add one font from the OpenLilyPontFonts repository to my Lilypond. Can someone give me a few hints on how to move or where to find information about? I guess that I have to download the library and place it somewhere, but I am not aware of where fonts are placed within my machine.

Problem with accidentals.ly and Lilypond 2.19.82
Hi there. I have got a problem. In my score, I have included the library accidentals.ly With Lilypond 2.19.82 I have the error: 163:2<0>: error: GUILE signaled an error for the expression beginning here # (ly:parser-set-note-names parser pitchnames) If I change the line #(ly:parser-set-note-names parser pitchnames) with #(ly:parser-set-note-names pitchnames) the program compiles, but some notes present a X instead of the correct accidental. [cid:b8369fdb-4dc3-4778-96bf-3cf7ffb201d7] I am stuck between these two things and not know how to solve the issues and use accidentals.ly with Lilypond 2.19.82 ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Problem with accidentals.ly and Lilypond 2.19.82
I have been able to run it! What it did was to replace the line #(ly:parser-set-note-names parser pitchnames) with #(ly:parser-set-note-names pitchnames) So I have got the same problem of before. Some accidentals are replaced with a X. Don't know how to solve it. Am I the only one to have this problem?

Or do convert-ly --from=2.18.2 --to=2.19.82 file.ly Note, this will only show what would be changed . To actually do it, add -e Anyway, you can't expect much effect on guile-code, although I think we have a convert rule whch eliminates superfluos 'parser'-arguments for 2.19. > Luca Danieli writes: > > > Hi there. > > > > I have got a problem.

Well, first try convert-ly. If it's not sufficient. You need to post your accidental.ly, otherwise nobody can help. And please, _no_ inline images. Attach them, link to them, but not inline. Meanwhile I've got notifications from more and more companies dropping any plain text, doing _all_ via html: It lookes all bright and shiny like one brothel door next to more of them. The content is hidden, though. Going on my nerves. Thus I decided to disable _any_ html in mails. So I can't see inline images, and I will not allow them being displayed, again.

Re: Problem with accidentals.ly and Lilypond 2.19.82
Hi Thomas, your analysis has been very good. I have almost solved the issue. I just don't know what's the glyph name for the SEMI-SHARP and SEMI-FLAT In the following code, I should add the ones for SEMI-SHARP and SEMI-FLAT. Do you know what's the name of the glyph? I already tried (e.g. SEMI-SHARP) "accidentals.semi-sharp", "accidentals.semisharp" and "accidentals.sharp.semi". They didn't work, but it might be a problem of refreshing. Best Luca arrowGlyphs = #`( (,DOUBLE-SHARP . "accidentals.doublesharp") (,SHARP-RAISE . "accidentals.sharp.arrowup") (,SHARP. "accidentals.sharp") (,SHARP-LOWER .

Some accidentals are replaced with > a X. Don't know how to solve it. Well, first I made an experiment. I included your code and tried to compile the most simple: { ceseh1 } With 2.18.2 and 2.19.82 (converted) In both version I get: warning: Could not find glyph-name for alteration -3/4 2.18.2 is done with this warning 2.19.82 additionally prints some dummy accidental > Am I the only one to have this problem? Likely, but I have a hard time imagening your file ever worked: Obviously you took http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=786 and changed it. But while defining your pitchnames in 'arrowedPitchNames', you use alterations like (* FLAT 3/2) (/ FLAT 2) (/ SHARP 2) (* SHARP 3/2) There is no corresponding entry in 'arrowGlyphs' for those alterations, though. Thus LilyPond-2.19.82 does not find any accidental-glyph to print, warns you and (to make it more obvious) it prints the dummy instead. Create additional entries in 'arrowGlyphs' for the alterations listed above and it should work.
