Nope. It is backward compatibility but should not be used anywhere.
git grep '\\begin\['
unfortunately shows that this isn't consistently done yet. The problem
with the old form is that it is not the optional LaTeX option syntax and

Hi all
Sorry if I use this list to ask questions about lyluatex, but I hope

I'm trying to increase the width of a snippet.
In LilyPond I can easily do it by changing the line-width and setting
ragged-right to false.
I've tried the following for lyluatex but nothing changes:
$ cat width.tex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{lyluatex}
\begin{document}
\begin{lilypond}[relative,line-width=300pt,ragged-right=false]

No matter which value I put, the output is always the same.
I'm missing something?
Not sure, but please repeat with the debug option and inspect/show
the generated .ly file from the temp directory.
Here's what is generated:
$ cat tmp-ly/eae183bb374f8506e020007e23aa7751.ly
%%File header
\version "2.18.2"

two-sided = ##f
line-width = 300.00\pt
indent = 0\pt
}
\layout{
}
%%Follows original score
\relative c' {c'4 d e f}
Don't you have to deal with ragged-last to make a single-system score
wider than necessary?
No, ragged-right works. I've tried the lilypond snippet before copying
it in the .tex file.
Here's an example:
\version "2.19.81"
\paper {
ragged-right = ##f
line-width = 13\cm
}
{ c'2 d' }

This would not work in LilyPond-Book either, would it? The option is
called noragged-right I think. But I am not sure whether you would not
need to tamper with ragged-last for single-line snippets anyway. Is
there even such an option for the respective LaTeX embeddings?

\fill-with-pattern does not center when line-width is overridden?
Hello LilyPonders
I want to reduce the distance between the tocItem text and its page
number while keeping the list *centered on the page*.
I tried the following but the list is left-aligned:
\version "2.19.29"
\paper {
tocItemMarkup = \markup \large \column {
\override #'(line-width . 80)
\fill-with-pattern #1 #CENTER . \fromproperty #'toc:text
\fromproperty #'toc:page
}
}
\markuplist \table-of-contents
{
\tocItem \markup "Piece 1"
\tocItem \markup "Piece 2"
\tocItem \markup "Piece 3"
\repeat unfold 20 g'1
}
I guess that this is related to what is explained here for line-width:
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/horizontal-spacing-paper-variables#paper-variables-for-widths-and-margins
but I'm not sure how it should work within a \markup block.
Thanks in advance

Fixed ledger line width with no dimension.
Hi All,
Please find herewith my last attempt to reach a kind of modern and easy
gregorian notation (see previous discussion here :

and here :
http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Hungarian-Gregorian-tc171130.html).
And I'm stucked for some days now: Since note heads should stick together,
ledger lines desapear (or are hidden by the note heads, see attached pic).
So I'm looking for a way to fix the leger line length without any dimension
so that no gap would remain.
TIA for any help,
Cheers

Re: Line-width and Lilypond-book
Hi Kevin, thanks for your advise. I have found that in fact I have to adjust the line-width file by file. Most of the times when a file has multiple lines lilypond-book works fine, the problem arises when I have single lines which lilypond doesn't split in two lines but which are too full to be placed within the line-width. Maybe it would be nice to have a function by which to fix the total-width of a line, including brackets and instrument names.

There is currently no way to fix the width of a lilypond score: lilypond
considers a `line' to begin with the line that starts a system, so anything
that is to the /left/ of that, such as the system start bracket, the
instrument name, or bar numbers will make the actual line-width longer than
you have specified. Fixing the paper width doesn't solve the problem
either: if the left margin and indent are both 0, lilypond will put stuff
off the page to the left (or, in the case of eps-backend images, make the
image wider than the paper=width).
The workaround I use is either to use a shorter line-width (or
paper-width), or to add a little left-margin, but the value you need to use
varies depending on the staff-size and on what lies outside of it, so you
just have to experiment every time and check how wide the images are. It's
tedious, and also the reason I stopped using lilypond-book (now I just
create the score images separately and include them manually).
I don't know if this is considered a bug (but I think it should be, or at
least a much-needed enhancement). As an example, consider the following
minimal example:
\version 2.18.2
\paper {
left-margin = 0
indent = 0
}
\new Staff \with { instrumentName = CAN'T SEE ME } {

From your mail I suppose the previous answers are working for you.

Hallo Reinhold, Changing the value of line-width (which according to the documentation sets the width of music systems), I noticed that the copyright notice changed position too. See the example in the attachment: it left-aligns with the staves. Actually, what you are observing is a consequence of the tagline being too wide... It is centered, as long as it is not wieder than the linewidth. However, in 2.12.x, the left edge of the tagline never moves further to the left than the page margin. That's what you are observing. In 2.13.x (soon to be the 2.14 release), the tagline is always centered and moves further to the left than the margin, even if it falls off the page on the left. Thanks!

I am new to this list, though not new to Lilypond. However, I am by no means a Lilypond expert. I have a template that I use for setting the weekly Psalm antiphons - a single line melody with lyrics on letter size paper in landscape mode. It has always worked fine. Recently I upgraded Lilypond to 2.12 (on Windows). Now the width of the line is less than half the width of the page, causing the layout to be crowded, horizontally. It readable, but not easily. So I added this line to the layout block: line-width = #150 using various values for the number. Nothing changes. I also tried line-width = 24\cm but that produces an error at \cm. Increasing the staff size makes it larger, but does not change the width vs. height, so the layout remains crowded. Any help appreciated.

Line-width, Staff Size, Print Size
What is the relationship between the digital size of the line-width and staff height (in Lilypond specs, in the .ps file, and in the .pdf file) and the printed output? Is it true and invariant? If I specify that the line-width = 178 mm, is it truly 178 mm? If I specify a staff height (#(set-global-staff-size 17.82)), is the staff height truly 6.3 mm? Here's the situation: up to now I have printed out my musical manuscripts at home and adjusted the staff size by eye and ruler. If I needed enlargements, I photocopied and enlarged the original by eye and ruler. I am now preparing a major orchestral score and parts and sending the .pdf files electronically to a print shop. I will format the musical score for an 8.5 x 11 in original so that the print shop will enlarge the score perfectly to 11x14 inches and the parts to 9.5 x 12 inches respectively. I need to tell the print shop the enlargement percentages. I am not asking for help in arithmetic here --- I can do the math. For example, if I wanted 1 inch margins in my 11 x 14 in score (and if I were printing directly onto 11 x 14 inch paper), I would set the line-width = 228.6 mm for 11x14 in paper. *However,* since I am formatting the score for 8.5 x 11 in paper, I must scale the line-width to 177.2 mm (78% reduction). Then the printer will enlarge the digital original by 129% to yield a final size of 228.6 mm. Will this reasoning hold accurately in the digital realm? Any pitfalls to watch out for? Much obliged.

I have to change 83 lines every time I want to fiddle with the

Does anyone know whether there's some other LaTeX syntax which would

Of course, if the bug where the lilypond lines are too long would just

Setting line width from the command line?
I tried a bunch of variations on the -d option, and haven't found one that works yet: $ lilypond -dline-width=\3\in\ essex-cantus.ly GNU LilyPond 2.9.23 warning: no such internal option: line-width And the lilypond process continues, but doesn't set the line width to 3 inches. -- Laura (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] , http://www.laymusic.org/ ) (617) 661-8097 fax: (501) 641-5011 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139 ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Run lilypond -dhelp to see a full list of the options that can be set this way. (Run lilypond --help or lilypond -h to find out about the -dhelp option). /Mats Quoting Laura Conrad [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I tried a bunch of variations on the -d option, and haven't found one that works yet: $ lilypond -dline-width=\3\in\ essex-cantus.ly GNU LilyPond 2.9.23 warning: no such internal option: line-width And the lilypond process continues, but doesn't set the line width to 3 inches. -- Laura (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] , http://www.laymusic.org/ ) (617) 661-8097 fax: (501) 641-5011 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139 ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Setting line width from the command line?
With lilypond-book, you can easily override the line width
using
\begin[line-width=10\cm]{lilypond}
...
\end{lilypond}

Line width
Hello,
I am trying to set the width of the lines of music that Lilypond
produces. I am sure that this has worked for me in previous versions but now
it seems to have no effect. The manual says:
The most basic settings influencing the spacing are 'indent' and
'linewidth'. They are set in the \paper block. They control the indentation
of the first line of music, and the lengths of the lines.
There are no examples of these two parameters. The head of my .ly file looks
like this:
\version 2.2.0
\include english.ly
\paper{
indent = 5 \mm
linewidth = 185 \mm
interscoreline = 36 \pt
pagenumber=no
}
Does this look OK? Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? I have tried
numverous sizes and it has made no difference. I have checked several files
in the Mutopia folder that is installed with Lilypond and it appears that my
line is correct. Copying and pasting the line from other files has also
produced no change in the line width. Anybody?

I solved the problem. I had a line in the \paper block that I deleted from
my above example because I did not think it was relevant. The line was:
#(set-paper-size letter)
I had been experimenting with getting the page size to work and this line is
the one recommended in the manual but the one that actually worked was:
papersize = letter
Which is the old way of doing it no?
I also forgot to mention that I am using Lilypond 2.2.0 on Mac OS X.
Sorry for the band width.
