[Rosegarden-user] Ugly notation formatting
Hi. I'm not only new to Rosegarden, I'm new to computer composing beyond using guitarix/Hydrogen/Ardour for recording. I've been working on a piece and learning bit by bit as I go along. Of course, this means that I'm making a lot of mistakes as I go. The trouble winds up in the notation editor. By the time I'm done fixing whatever needs to be fixed in what I previously did, the notation is left looking terrible, lol. Not *really* the software's fault, but I would think that there might be a way to, oh, I don't know, hit a button or menu item that would reformat the entire thing to be a little more elegant and/or make sense? What I'm currently writing is in 2/4 time, in the D melodic minor scale. One example is at one point I wanted to make a chord ring out longer than I'd originally put it and had already added notes after it. I searched for what I should do there, and from what I gather, I could only do that in the matrix editor. Is that the case? Anyway, I did it there, and the notation not only looks bad, it no longer makes sense. I think there might be a whole note listed in one bar (again, it's in 2/4), and there's something that should be tied, plays like it's tied, but it's not shown that way. Is there some way I can keep the music as it is, but discard and regenerate the notation? I apologize for my ignorance here. I do love being able to do what I'm doing, though. This is a great application. -- ___ Rosegarden-user mailing list Rosegarden-user@lists.sourceforge.net - use the link below to unsubscribe https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-user

It is locale related. My distro (Mageia 5) offered two options for locales: - The default mode where filenames are encoded with UTF8 - The "Compatibility with old encoding" mode where filenames are encoded with ASCII or ISO-something. In the first mode, my locale is LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8. In the second mode it is LANG=fr_FR. Filenames may contain diacritics in the two modes, but utf8 garbages are only found with the first one. The problem should be fixed in rev. 14587.

I can prevent Rosegarden from being able to load a file by changing its encoding to something awful, but everything else I tried just works. Could be locale- and/or filesystem-related. I don't have any weird filesystems to test, like an old partition that was created before utf-8 became the norm. I used to have one of those, and that's what I'm betting might cause breakage. Haven't had that for a long time. -- D.
