Re: defining custom note heads

I was searching how to do the same thing and found this thread. I know this is an old post, but following the example of Lilypond documentation for using numbers instead of note names, I created the following snippet to show custom note names: #(define Note_name_engraver_pt (make-engraver

Re: Custom note heads

Hi Helge, What sort of shapes do you want? Can you supply an illustration? [A MGE - minimal graphic example!] You can use graphic files, or you can write Scheme to generate custom postscript paths. The latter can be very complex, but is of course very powerful. or you can use path construction

Custom note heads

Hello, I've been asked to write some scores with custom note heads. These heads are designed for beginners. I know that the Emmentaler font contains some special heads but I don't know how to add new shapes. I found this question at Stackoverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47341754

Custom note heads in multi-staff documents

Hey all, I'm working on a piece that uses a fair bit of spoken text. The best solution I've found so far to typeset X amount of spoken text in measure Y is : \version 2.14.0 textnote = #(define-music-function (parser location music marky) (ly:music? markup?) #{ \once \override NoteHead

Hello, I'm trying to get the second option below to work. This is one where you use markup commands to create the notehead. I can't get the syntax right, could you also provide an example of that? Thanks, -Eric On Tue, Jun 3, 2008 at 10:20 AM, v!ictor [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have it working when you define glyphs, like this: headCircle = {\once \override NoteHead #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print \once \override NoteHead #'text = #(markup #:musicglyph scripts.flageolet ) } What I can't get to work is what Victor mentioned but didn't give and

Hello Eric, here are a few more examples. The first (headCircle) is the one I had given before. It just calls musicgryph inside a markup. The second (headTriW) just draws a triangle. Notice how you can set the size with the fontsize command. The third (headXinD) combines (with the combine

Thank you, Neil. That is a very good point and I'm now switching to standard \markup usage. An thanks to everyone who chimed in here. I have been trying to develop a way to notate for my instrument, the Chapman Stick, for a long time. I really made a big leap today. -Eric On Mon, Jul 7, 2008 at
