Re: Intro and help with mp. cresc.

[Alexander Wallace]

Thanks a lot for your response, Nick Payne... 

I am getting a Syntax error, I need to study a bit about tweak and then construct your solution in a way that matches my version of Lily. I don't think I have the patch that can deal with . for object properties:

Processing `/var/folders/Xz/XzbFT1b8F2CmxVflynxGhE+++TI/-Tmp-/frescobaldi-asYWrk/tmpwoxO2b/document.ly'

Parsing...

/var/folders/Xz/XzbFT1b8F2CmxVflynxGhE+++TI/-Tmp-/frescobaldi-asYWrk/tmpwoxO2b/document.ly:3:28: error: syntax error, unexpected '.'

mpCresc = \tweak DynamicText

.self-alignment-X #LEFT

/var/folders/Xz/XzbFT1b8F2CmxVflynxGhE+++TI/-Tmp-/frescobaldi-asYWrk/tmpwoxO2b/document.ly:6:0: error: syntax error, unexpected MUSIC_FUNCTION, expecting '='

Thanks again!

Hi All,

I am very new to music and just started playing with Lilypond today.

I'm really liking it so far, but I'm having problems doing a couple of things...

I can't add a 'mp cresc.' label to my notes....

\version "2.16.2"

\relative c'

{

% can't have mp cresc...

d4_\mp d\cresc e c

}

You could use something like so:

\version "2.16.2"

mpCresc = \tweak DynamicText.self-alignment-X #LEFT
#(make-dynamic-script (markup #:dynamic "mp" #:normal-text #:italic "cresc."))

\relative c'
{
 d4_\mpCresc d e c
}
