Re: Slur into alternatives

[Jan-Peter Voigt]

Hi Pierre,

of course. As I mentioned in the just sent mail to Markus, repeatTie is kind of a misuse, but repeatSlur doesn't exist. I most times use \shape or some derivate like in the snippet from the list, I found in my archive.

Cheers,
Jan-Peter

Hi Jan-Peter,

I know that this is a standard solution ; personnally, I'm not a big fan simply because this tie looks like... a tie ;)

So I'd suggest two options :

1. With \repeatTie plus a vertical tweak

2. With a hidden grace note.

So here it goes:

\version "2.18.2"

%% option 1:

{
  % I want a slur from the b to the c in 1) and to the a in 2)
  \repeat volta 2 { b'1 ( }
  \alternative
  {
    { c''1 ) }
    {
      a'1
      -\tweak Y-offset #0.2 % <= for a better 'slur' look.
      ^\repeatTie
     
      %% Description:
      \tweak self-alignment-X #RIGHT
      \mark\markup
        \with-color #red
        \fontsize #-2 {
          Alternative slur with
          \bold\typewriter\with-color #blue  "\\repeatTie"
          :
        }
    }
  }
}

%% Option 2

{
  % I want a slur from the b to the c in 1) and to the a in 2)
  \repeat volta 2 { b'1 ( }
  \alternative
  {
    { c''1 ) }
    {
      \acciaccatura {          % <= slured grace note
        \once\slurUp           % slur shows 'up'
        \once\hideNotes b'1     % <= hide starting note
      }
      a'1
     
      %% Description:
      \tweak self-alignment-X #RIGHT
      \mark\markup
        \with-color #red
        \fontsize #-2 { Here with a hidden grace note: }
    }
  }
}

Cheers,

Pierre

Sorry ... I was too fast ;)

I meant
{ a'1\repeatTie }

Hi Markus,

you can use
{ a'1\repeatSlur }

Hello,

Being quite a rookie in music notation and lilypond in general, I have a
problem:

\version "2.18.2"

{
   % I want a slur from the b to the c in 1) and to the a in 2)
   \repeat volta 2 { b'1 ( }
   \alternative
   {
     { c''1 ) }
     { a'1  ) }
   }
}

This gives me a warning:

slur_to_next_alternative.ly:9:12: warning: cannot end slur
     { a'1
            ) }

What I would like to have is a slur - indication in 2) like I have it in the
sheet that I'm trying to set in lilypond.

Oh, and the final result will be part of a choir rehearsal - maybe that's
important for the solution?

Thanks for your help,
