I'm also a bit stymied by \bendAfter -- is that the only notation for bends? How would I notate the bend-up/bend-down antics of guitarists? ~ C. </pre> Corbin Simpson 2012-05-26T19:42:32 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.lilypond.general/72361 <pre>Hi all, Please have a look at http://pastebin.com/uxvQGR7y Using `\set Staff.timeSignatureFraction = #'(2 . 2)` (lines 74 &amp; 78, etc.) I added repeated mensural signs (like it was in the source). When looking at the end of bar 36, you can see that the sign is drawn too early (and it is repeated at the beginning of bar 37). How do I remove the extra signs at the end of bar 36? Thank you in advance!

Well, at least I do. I tried to solve it in my 2.15.39 test installation. I added to .../scm/lily.scm after line 40 the predefinition of an empty list in which to collect the file names: (begin (debug-enable 'backtrace) (debug-set! show-file-name #t))) +(define-public postscript-user-libraries '()) + (define-public PLATFORM (string-&gt;symbol (string-downcase (car (string-tokenize (utsname:sysname (uname))))))) I added to .../scm/framework-ps.scm after line 398 the code to output of these files to the intermediate postscript file at the end of the prolog.

Entering on a computer keyboard is fairly quick, but still it feels that playing a melody line would be so much quicker. In particular if one does not have a typing c4 d e f g1 style but c4 d4. e8 f8. g16 c,1 What "better" methods exist? For example I have looked into rosegarden output. Minor issue:the output is not in relative notation. More cumbersome are slightly non-aligned notes to the beat (me being an imperfect human) and in particular varying note lengths introducing rests where the music and the audible sound both have none. I have seen techniques where the pitch is via piano keyboard and rhythm is via computer keyboard. I am not fully convinced. I have seen a custom-designed computer keyboard that combines pitch and duration. It might work well after a learning curve. What I am tempted is to take midi file information (i.e. gunzip a.rg), or the rosegarden ly output and reverse-engineer it into event lists.

I tried moving the note to the right using \override NoteColumn #'force-hshift, but that didn't move the note. What can I use?

This month Pavel Roskin joins us to tell a story of wit and patience about a brave contributor who sets out on a quest to find the cause of strange LilyPond errors appearing out of nowhere. In other news, 2.16 stable release is drawing nearer and nearer: on this occasion David Kastrup shares with us some thoughts about our development process. Finally, a fundamental question is asked: is LilyPond output good enough? Have we managed to match the beauty of hand-engraved scores, or is there still a lot of work ahead of us?
