chordnames disposition
Hello all, thanks for the answers and here is one more doubt. I wrote a piece with chordnames above, but the the inverted chords get much near the next one. So I tried to change the font with \property ChordNames.ChordName #font-relative-size = #-5 or stg. but it seems only the modifiers were changed (eg. 'Gm', only the 'm' became smaller, but the 'G' remained big). Then I put some _ text with \fatText, so it pushes next note away from inverted chords, but this is ugly :) So: Can I change the font-size for chordnames? Is there a way so the bass of inverted chords appear below the chord'd name, I mean: Cm -- Eb instead of Cm/Eb ? And also, chordnames appear left-justified above the note. Can they be centered? tia, -- Felipe ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: How do I conver to midi
Hello Ohannes,
you must add
\midi {}
inside \score {} just after the \paper {} command. If you omit \midi
lilypond does no generate MIDI output.
You can convert .midi to .ly (the reverse) using midi2ly.

I finally got lilypond working on my RedHat 7.2. I was able to run the
sample .ly file and create .dvi and .ps files. One question I have is
how do I convert a .ly file to a midi file. I see there is an -m option,
but I am not sure if this option is supposed to play the song or create
a midi file. It does not create a file and I do not hear anything. My
sound card works because I am able to play midi and mp3 files

string substitution, transpose, auto-time
Hello,
I have these 3 questions...
1) what's the best way to use string substitution, I mean something like:
tune = c
soprano = \notes \transpose $tune {...}
alto = \notes \transpose $tune {...}
2) What's the best way to transpose a whole score? Should I put a
\transpose on every expression? Can I do it in the global variable?
3) I read in documentation that I could use addLyrics with \notes instead
of \lyrics. I would use it with an alto voice that has the same timing of
the soprano voice (in fact, all voices have the same timing). Is there a
way so I can type the timing only once? e.g.
soprano = \notes { g2 g8 g8 f8 f8 | ... }
alto = \notes { ees ees ees c c | ... }
tia!

Re: splitting .ly files into chunks
The advantage is that you dont need to modify the files, but only the
command line. You could also write a mekefile to generate it
automatically.
But you are right: it's preciousism of my.

I think he could comment out the \includes he does not want to hear. A
better way to do it would be pre-process the file someway.
I don't see why this is better than
\include part1.ly
\include part2.ly
\include part3.ly
What is the propblem in inserting comments in before the includes that
you don't want to hear?
Ofcourse the files are
part1.ly:
voiceone = \notes { ... }
lyricsone = \lyrics { ... }
voicetwo = \notes { ... }
...
part2.ly:
voiceone = \notes { \voiceone ... }
lyricsone = \lyrics { \lyricsone ... }
...
etc.

Justified staffs
Hello all, I needed two things that I didnt find in the manual 1) how can I control breaks (I didnt get it with \bar ... it just does not break when there is space... and I couldnt user \penalty ... I tried #0 value and #9) 2) how do I justify a staff (I want staffs of the same length and the notes distributed over them) 3) I'm writing unmetered music and I want not the time signature to appear, how do I do it? (I have already written \cadenzaOn and set the property Score.timing = ##f but the 'c' still appears at the start of the score) TIA! -- Felipe Massia Pereira http://www.ic.unicamp.br/~ra000493 CS MSc Student @ IC-UNICAMP ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
