[Denemo-devel] Two issues: Files and Repeats

[angelaandjoe.wilkinson]

Files.

I have just edited four denemo files and saved the new version (which replaces the old - reopening it gives me an updated file) But the date on the file is unchanged. The pdf produced for a printout is also saved (this time explicitly) over the old version, and gets the current date and time. I would prefer if the denemo file displayed its date-of-update, not its date-of-creation. Any ideas?

Repeats/First &Second time bars.

I think the Measures -> Repeats -> Help Information could be improved (there is plenty of space) from:

"Repeats are usually inserted using commands to insert repeat barlines and to insert first/second/nth time bar markings from the Directives menu - look these up in the Command Center. This menu is just for those that want the normal LilyPond syntax for repeats - use right-click->More Commands to un-hide these."

by pointing people specifically at

Directives > Inserting Barlines (for repeat markings) and

Directives -> Markings Alternative Bars (for first, second and Nth time bars)

rather than sending users via the Command centre.

Something like:

Repeats are usually inserted using Directive commands to insert repeat barlines and to insert first/second/nth time bar markings from the Directives menu, i.e.

Directives > Inserting Barlines (for repeat markings) and  Directives -> Markings Alternative Bars (for first, second and Nth time bars).

For more help look these up in View -> Command Center.

This menu item is just for those that want the normal LilyPond syntax for repeats - use right-click->More Commands to un-hide these.

What Right-click actually does is prompt the user to insert individual commands (I presume). It doesn't unhide any commands (in Windows 10, at least)

Best wishes
