I was browsing thru the sheet music archive and came across http://icking-music-archive.org/scores/fallen/duotpsjf.pdf . That mass of accidentals in bar 26 was an obvious challenge to PMX, and PMX 2.412 lost. But after some tedious reconstruction of rather complicated logic I squashed the bug out of the new version http://icking-music-archive.org/software/pmx/pmx2413.zip
To see the fix, try both the old and new versions on this: ============================= 1 1 3 4 3 4 0 0 1 1 20 0 t ./ Ab w3i b43 zdf ze zgf zaf zb zdf df zef zgf zaf zbf zdf df- zef zgf zaf zbfA>.3 zdf / ============================= With the new version, notice that the default spacing between b-flat and d-flat, as in the 2nd quarter note, still could be better. The reason it's off is that I simplified the outline of the left-shifted notehead into a rectangle, and the b-flat just avoids the (invisible) upper left corner of the rectangle surrounding the notehead. The good news is that you can tweak the position of the b-flat as in the 3rd quarter note, and all the other flats come right along for the ride. Since the programming logic is fresh in my mind, I'd appreciate people playing around with different combinations of accidentals on chords and reporting any problems. --Don Simons _______________________________________________ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sunsite.dk/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
