Re: Frescobaldi LilyPond Log

[Steve Cummings]

(Apologies for any duplication--I didn't see this alternative mentioned 
in the thread.)


Nothing wrong with the Autohotkey solution but it's pretty easy to 
unstick the stuck font size setting in the log, a known problem in the 
Windows version of Frescobaldi.


The issue has been fixed in the source 
(https://github.com/frescobaldi/frescobaldi/pull/1115, 
https://github.com/frescobaldi/frescobaldi/issues/1066#issuecomment-388319437) 
but as of a few days ago the binary available for download didn't 
include that change. You can apply the fix yourself just by commenting 
out or deleting one line of python code. Stepwise, for us blockheads, it's:


1. Open the file log.py (located in the ..\Frescobaldi\frescobaldi_app\ 
folder) in a text editor -- Frescobaldi will do.


2. Find the line (line number 124 in the current Windows version) that 
reads

    output.setProperty(QTextFormat.FontSizeAdjustment, 0)

3. Comment out that line (put a # at the beginning of the line).

4. Save the file.

When you close and restart Frescobaldi the font setting for the log 
should work--did for me.


You can delete the line instead of commenting it out. Either way, with 
that change the mousewheel/Autohotkey zoom no longer works.

Problem solved for LilyPond log font size using AutoHotkey.   Thanke for
the help from Ben (sounds from sound).

Thank you all,

 Yes, you can hover the mouse over the log and use the mouse wheel +
 control key to change font size. :)

There can be yes, but it depends. What hardware are you
using? Laptop brand/model? What OS?

I have a Dell that has a Simulated Wheel, touchpad is designed
for it  but i do not use that for Frescobaldi.  The touchpad
keyboard i am using does not know how many fingers i am using on
the pad.  Just thinking there could be so way to set the keys to

Hi,

Right. But are you running Windows on that Dell or a Linux flavor?
I'm just going to guess and assume Windows.

If so, it's pretty easy to setup an AutoHotKey script to simulate
a mouse scroll wheel up/down so that's what I would do if you
don't have/can't get access to a mouse.

Windows but i would not have a clue.   I will try to find how.
Thanks you.

No problem, I got you.  :)

Here's what you do:

*First, download AutoHotKey.*

https://www.autohotkey.com/download/ahk-install.exe

Install it, defaults are fine.

*Then, download this script to your desktop (it's an .AHK file) - a 
script that maps the entire NUMPAD to mouse controls.*


https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/scripts/NumpadMouse.ahk

(you only need to worry about the scroll options which is NUM add / NUM 
sub ( + -)


*Then, double click the AHK file to "run it". You should see the icon in 
your tray now.*


That's it! :)

*Now, if you hold CONTROL + the NUMPAD minus or plus, you can scroll the 
font size in Frescobaldi log files.*


Just tested it, works beautifully.

Just make sure you have SCROLL LOCK for this to work.

When you're finished and the log is the right size, you can always close 
the script from your tray and go back to whatever you had.


Hope this helps!

If so, it's pretty easy to setup an AutoHotKey script to simulate a 
mouse scroll wheel up/down so that's what I would do if you don't 
have/can't get access to a mouse.

Here's an odd one: on my Fedora desktop, running Frescobaldi 3.0.0 I can 
change the type face of the log in Edit|Preferences|Tools. There is also 
a dropdown which looks as though it should change the size, but has no 
effect. However, I can click in the log pane, hold Ctrl and roll the 
mouse wheel to change size. Ctrl - and Ctrl + only change the zoom in 
the music pane.
