Hi Urs,

I solved my issue by adding the full path to one of my .ily files and including that at the top of the master. Now it works great. Such a nice system!

Now: would these colors be preserved in a printed PDF output? How can I change them? It's nice to have them in frescobaldi's preview window, but I don't want them in a printed output (which, ultimately, this score will have to be).

Well, now you're at the main obstacle why I don't want to significantly extend the "new" openLilyLib with more functionality - the lack of a proper documentation system ;-)

In general openLilyLib stuff is configured with the \setOption command (libraries *register* options that can later be set).

In your case it's
\setOption scholarly.colorize ##f

that will print everything black.
I don't think you're interested in *changing* the used colors?
If so I can look that option up. Or you can have a look in the ly/scholarly/annotate/config.ily file, maybe you'll find out yourself.

Second question: is there a way to know which grobs can be used as the last argument? In examples, it's things like "DynamicText" or "NoteHead". But I'm not sure what other grobs can be specified. Any at all? Or are there limits?

As far as I can see you should be able to use *any* grob name that LilyPond knows there.

Best
Urs

So, I really want to use ScholarLy for my current project (the OE has typos and mistakes, they need to be noted, etc). 

I cloned the entire git repository into a subdirectory of my ~/.lilypond directory, and have the following in my master .ly file for the project:

\include "openlilylib"

\useLibrary Scholarly

\useModule scholarly.annotate

In my .ly file for music, I have the following:

\musicalIssue \with {

author = "me"

message = "Typfehler"

source = "Fascimile der Stimme"

}

NoteHead %% Typo noted, Bar 32

  c

This is inside a \Voice block. Compiling fails, complaining that the string is unrecognized. The \musicalIssue tag also does not show up on the auto-complete dropdown in frescobaldi.

So, it isn't working for me. What am I doing wrong?

I can't tell for sure if I don't see the actual file and/or at least the full error message.
But if I take your report literally you have to add openLilyLib to LilyPond's include path - which you'll do in the Frescobaldi preferences.

Currently you'll have to add *two* directories there, namely openLilyLib's root directory plus the ly directory inside that. Someday, when the migration has completed the root won't be necessary anymore.

Frescobaldi doesn't know about openLilyLib's keywords, so you won't get any syntax highlighting either. Maybe I'll be able to do something about that in the future, but originally Frescobaldi claims to support the full syntax of the current stable version of LilyPond.

If that doesn't help you out please send the relevant part of the error messages completely (for example I would suspect that LilyPond already doesn't find "openlilylib").
