Re: highlighting notes in pdf, synchronized pdf and midi playback

Hi,

i'm pretty sure that i saw a program that could highlight objects in
compiled pdf corresponding to the selected lilypond input, but i
cannot find it now. Am i right? What was it?

It's been quite a long time since I've used it, but, IIRC, jEdit + LilyPondTool plugin can do it.
Actually it doesn't highlight... It's a jump... a kind of "reverse" point-and-click.
 

Also, is there any program that would play a midi file and highlight
corresponding notes in pdf or do something similar? It would be useful
for more convenient playback of LilyPond-generated scores.

The most recent version of Frescobaldi uses KMid as internal midi player.
When you press Play, you can see the number and the beat of the bar being played.

[ If you use Debian Squeeze KMid is not in the repository and you have to compile it, see this thread:

Also, have you seen this website?
