General Discussion / Re: Best wishes to all here
Blood, sweat and tears  ;D

The researchers have found that the COV2 is present in the tears.
So the eyes are not only an input port for the virus but also an output port.
But there is more.
There are some that are virus positive in the lungs but not in the tears and vice versa.
As a researcher said: there's no rule with this virus; it's a mess. At the moment we don't understand.

And the virus was found also in drain waters.
But it isn't a big problem because this can't be infectious, or so we're told...

Object Plugins / Re: NonFlowBar.hmm (0.1)
I find surprising that the insertion point (anchor) for this plugin is on the right of the object.
Normally it is at the left. There's a reason for that?

General Discussion / Re: 10000
See you in the 100000 thread!  :))

Long, long ago, let say 45 years, while discussing with some friends, someone, maybe me, said: we'll meet in ten years and we'll see who was right.
Indeed we met some 15..20 years later but none remebered what was the matter...  :D

Thanks, Rick, that's perfect for the sound, but what's wrong is the appearance.
How can a poor musician read that?  :)

General Discussion / Repeat all
I think someone already asked this and someone (else  :) ) solved the problem, but I can't find the relevant thread.

Simply stated: I want to repeat a big part of a score from the beginning, including the repeats with special endings, up to Fine.
In symbols: A ||: B | B1 :|| B2 || C (Fine) | D (DC al Fine),
where B1 and B2 are special endings of B.
What I want is: A | B | B1 | B | B2 | C | D | A | B | B1 | B | B2 | C,

Someone has a good idea?

General Discussion / Re: Best wishes to all here
A friend of mine, who is a nurse, told me that her hospital, who was one of the hospitals dedicated to COVID (you know, it's a very bad idea to mix the patients!) has now been restored as of general use. 
Here the peak seems passed, but not everywhere and it's no time to relax, yet.

What did I write?

The government isn't brave enough to admit that the road is long and prefers to continue to say ""just a little bit".
Officially the lockdown will last until April 13th, just after Easter.
The coordinator for the emergecy in an interview said that for sure we'll pass May 1st at home. Maybe, maybe we can relax somethig around May 15th. He has been immediately forced by the government to abiure!

I hear all the other countries, even the overoptimistics like Trump was, speak of months.
The Italian government talks of a couple of weeks... each time.

General Discussion / Re: Best wishes to all here
An unconfirmed voice: someone said that in Wuhan, after the lockdown, they expected a boom of childbirth.
It seems that, instead, there is a boom of... divorces!
Having to live in very strict contact for a relativaly long time can exacerbate every minimum friction.   ::)

General Discussion / Re: Best wishes to all here
Some news.

After a couple of weeks of very low traffic and factory stop, the pollution levels are becoming very low, so low as many, many years ago.
The industrial pole of Porto Marghera (in practice: Venice) is virtually closed, so the Adriatic sea, that's a cul de sac, after many years is becoming clear again!

Many people now can't work and the situation for them is becoming critical, so the government is preparing an economical help.
Of course, all those (many, especially in some areas of the country!) who had unreported employment (moonlighting) now can''t ask anything from the State.  ;)
Of course, the risk is that the mafia(s) could put the hands on those people.

Now it seems we need more lockdown time. No wonder, at least for me.

General Discussion / Re: Best wishes to all here
Still all fine for me and my family. Thanks mates.

Lately many people had no time to cook.
Now we have time again, so it has become hard to find flour, yeast, etc.
Little physical exercise and more cooking... I thing we'll be fattening a bit!  ;)

General Discussion / Re: Best wishes to all here
Don't trust the Ministry of Health!
They said that with mask and gloves you're allowed to go out.
I did it, but I discovered that everybody else was also wearing shirt and trousers!  :)

(N.B. A very outdated joke. The current rule is easier: you can't!)

It seems there can be a correlation between the air pollution level and the virus spreading.
The PM10 can be inspired and can support the virus.
418
General Discussion / Re: Best wishes to all here
Higher and higher.
Latest news: The emergency level has been raised again.
Still too many people around, so the virus keeps spreading and making victims.
N.B. For transgression there are up to 3 month of jail!
Various cities are exporting... cadavers.
No more places to bury them. Military trucks are transporting coffins all around.
And rumours are that all the people working in the sanitary servces can forget their summer holidays...
420
General Discussion / Re: Best wishes to all here
Latest news: we need to wash the roads. No need for chlorine, water is enough... so they say.
After the winter that wasn't, now it doesn't rain.
But washing the roads now is easy: very low traffic.
And low smog and traffic pollution too!  ;D

Some days ago I heard about toilet paper shortage in Japan, then a friend of mine reported the same from Portugal, then the USA, then my cousin and Bart from Belgium...
Toilet paper shortage? Why? Who can explain that to me?
My friend from Lisbon said there are many jokes about it... (And Bart demonstrated it too.  :) )

Another funny thing: in some places of Italy there was a run to make hoarding of long term food.
The store shelves were completely empty... except for "penne lisce" ("smooth pens", a kind of pasta). Nobody bought them.
I must admit I don't like them. Being smooth, they don't "grab" the seasoning like the striped ones and remain insipid, unless the pasta is of very high quality, of course.
But if they are still produced, someone usually buys them!
A mystery...

General Discussion / Re: Best wishes to all here
In Italy the antivirus measures are more and more stringent every day.
We already reached a very high level and there is the possibility that it will be raised again.
We had some messages of the president of the republic at the whole nation.

We are strongly requested to stay home and not getting out if not because of necessity.
Even a stroll (rigorously alone!) is discouraged.
The fines for transgression are quite high.

Why so high a level? Let me try to explain.

- The virus is very infective (... viral!) and spreads very easily. That's well known.
- We were told by the media that an infected person is not contagious until it shows the symptoms.
Wrong. Now we know it's not so, and the OMS already knew even then.
- We were told that goods are not at risk. Well, it depends on the type of the surface (composition, humidity, temperature) etc.
We are now asked to sanitize all the places and things, to use mask, gloves and even disinfect the shoes after being out!
- Of course, the people more at risc are the weakest (elders, sick...). But now we had some deaths (and I say deaths) of some healthy people, often volunteers of the red cross who weren't properly supplied of protection devices (!).
- First hand news: our doctor, and neighbour, visited a patient who had high fever. He sent him immediately at the hospital. The patient, an otherwise very healthy man, was found positive to COVID19.
Our doctor was wearing white coat, gloves and mask, but not safety glasses. He was forced to stay in quarantine! Luckily, no infection.
The patient, 46 years, died in a few days.
- The virus can cause pneumonia. Rarely? Not so much! And the infected need to go under intensive care and need a machine to help them to breath.
But the places for intensive care are limited, and ventilators even more, after years and years of financial cuts to the sanitary service. If too many people need help and you don't have enough possibilities you MUST choose. You must choose who to save and who let die...
- My cousin, who returned to Shanghai, now is after her first week of quarantine. She, and her daughter in another room, is in a hotel. She can't get anything from outside except the food that's given her by the staff. No contact with the exterior (only by phone). She also does laundry in the room. The heating is centralized, so it can not be used or it will possibly spread the virus. Only ventilation is possible. The room temperature is 14 °C!
- One of our suppliers from China sent us some info: "The new disease is similar to SARS in 2003. There were more than 3 hundred Hong Kong fatalities. Most of them were Doctor or Nurse. The death rate of this new disease is around 4-5% now. Although the infected person will recover, their lungs are damaged, the function of lungs is weak and they may need respirator in the future (we know it because, after SARS in 2003, a lot of recovered people are now using respirator, and most of them are very young.)
I fear that it will spread very fast because this disease is more dangerous than SARS in 2003: incubation period is longer, around 14 days, but for some people is 24 days. During incubation period the symptoms are like flu but, after 14 days, their lungs have inflammation and damage. But the most dangerous is that some people hasn’t any symptoms, but they will make other people infected. To protect you and your family please read and share the informations from Hong Kong’s government: https://www.coronavirus.gov.hk/eng/health-advice.html"
- Not so long ago, the mayor of an Italian region was asking for more relaxed measures for his region because he reputed them too strong. The answer was: no. Now he's crying for help because his region is one with the worst situation in Italy and has no more places in the hospitals.
- Many people from southern Italy live in the north because in the south there's no work. Of course now many escaped home and, of course, they didn't declare it as they are required to do and don't stay in quarantine. Result: the virus is spreading in the south too.
- How long will be necessary for the peak to pass? Maybe not too long, but don't expect we can get out of it too soon. Rich said 4 months... And we are just talking of the health problem.

Panic? No, I don't panic, but fear... you can bet.

General Discussion / Re: HELP! - NWC File won't open
It's not a matter of time but of how much the filesystem is used.
When you "delete" a file the file is still there, but that space is marked as "free".
As long as the operating system doesn't decide of reusing that space you can recover your data.

General Discussion / Re: How can I notate a gliss for a harp?
The graphism for the glissando has already been explained by Mike, but the acoustic result is very unsatisfactory.
In the vast majority of the cases you can have a better result by choosing "white keys".

If the pedal configuration is odd, then probably the only way to have a good result is to use a hidden staff with an arpeggio plugin, like here:

The tenuto, but not the legato, notes are a bit louder (velocity +7%).
Tenuto used to be an articulation of duration, not force. Here it is both.

General Discussion / Re: end on steff
Usually, canons are written as a single line with marks where the other voices must start.
By the way: add a little panning to the voices, spreading them along the acoustic horizon, and the effect is much better.

Or, maybe better, select "Open (hidden)" an keep the one you added.
This is useful if you use the option "force system break" on it.

Use flugelhorn samples!  :D
My keyboard has it and you can always find them in the 'net.
Of course you don't have it in the general MIDI bank.
GS: patch = 57,  Bank = 8
XG: patch = 57, Bank = 125

you'll find all the installers used to get you to this point.
Yes, but if you started long ago like me, the first installer requires the CD to go on.
It all depends...

General Discussion / Printing buglet
In print (and print preview), the measure 5 of the piano, i.e. the first of the second page, has two undesired ties, not present and not visible in the editor.
Where do they come from?

General Discussion / Re: Spacing out endings
One more thing for autors and arrangers: the levers can be operated only with the left hand, so be careful to leave at least a fraction of a second for it to move and return!

General Discussion / Re: Spacing out endings
Very good, Mike.

FYI the pedal position diagram must be read from left to right as: [D C B (separator bar) E F G A]
The separator bar should separate the pedals operated with the left foot from the ones operated with the right foot but, like the two staves of the grand staff, there are exceptions...
As Bill wrote, the lower position indicates #, the central is neutral and the upper is b.
I got somewhere a couple of fonts specific for this diagram. (See attachment)

I must say that I saw this diagram not very frequently and in many of those cases only at the beginning of the score or in points with very odd combinations to make it clear what the autor intended.
In all the other cases the indication to set a pedal is simply the name of the note somewere around the staff at the best moment to move the pedal. This can be the simple name of the note (e.g. F#, Eb, not to be confused fot the name of a chord!) or the same but enclosed in parenthesys (F#) (Eb). Look at "Toccata".

We are talking here of the classic (orchestral, or pedal) harp, but there are also "Celtic"(or "lever") harps.
Those are tuned in Eb and each string has a lever (hence the name) that can rise the note half a tone.
As you can easily see, some notes don't exist (Cb, Db, E#, Fb, Gb, A#, B#) and the only major scales allowed are Eb, Bb, F, C, G, D, A, E. The most common ones: what a chance!  :))
But each string has its lever so you can have, for example, an F3 and an F#2.
Please note that's very stupid to waste time and effort to move the levers of strings you don't need to play.
In that case you can either specify which note of which octave you must fix (e.g. F#3, Bb4) or add what looks like a courtesy accidental (an accidental between parenthesys) in the staff indicating the moment and the note to fix.

A folkloristic note: the harpists count the octaves from the closest to them to the more distant, i.e. from the treble to the bass!

Sorry if I overloaded you...
