General Discussion / Re: staves with different time signatures
Rich: 
I asked you this in my reply #2, but you may not have seen it:
I'm not sure how you have a 9/8 time signature governing the 3/4 tripletized measures. I had the measures governed by a hidden 3/4 after a visible 9/8.
Sorry,  I thought that was just saying that I had missed a bit of the solution.  Strictly, your hidden 3/4 is more correct. My version works simply because everything adds up in each of the staves for the section of music that is being transcribed.  Even an audit bar lines passes the test.  (NoteWorthy quirks ?). However, should there have been, say, a blank bar in the middle of the 9/8 sections, then the bar lines would not have added up, and in that case, additional rests would have been added to force the 9/8 bars to their proper length.  Since we do not know what happens in all of the music that Lorenzo is transcribing, it would be far safer to include hidden 3/4 time signatures such as you have done.

Rich,

General Discussion / Re: staves with different time signatures
Hi Lorenzo,

In my opinion, yes, there is a more elegant solution.

Your 9/8 measures can be considered the same as 3/4 with triplets - Likewise the 6/8 can be considered a 2/4 with triplets.

So to achieve this, in the 9/8 measures, tripletise the notes . Likewise in the 6/8 measures.

You can then use the marker function (@) to hide the triplets.

If you are prepared to copy the nwctxt to a text editor, you can completely move the triplet marks to position 2000 or -2000 where they can't even be seen as grey in the editor (many people do not like this bit)

In the attached sample file, the first two measures are just with the @ marker making the triplet invisible (grey)  . In the final two measures, I have moved the triplet markings completely out of view. so that they cannot be seen in the editor.

Hope this helps.

General Discussion / Re: Removing text from an .nwv file
Load the nwc file into NoteWorthy composer. 
Click on the line that has the lyrics in.
Press Ctrl and L
This will open up the lyrics for that line.
You can then select all of the lyrics (so that they turn blue)   CTRL and A will do this.
Then press delete.

You will then need to put in the German lyrics if that is what you want to to , remembering to follow the rules for NoteWorthy Composer lyrics.  (ie one syllable per note or tied note with a "-" between syllables within the same word. etc.)

General Discussion / Re: internal and external slur
I'm not sure if I am understanding you properly but you can move a noteworthy slur from above the joining bar to above the noteheads by using the marker (key @) and selecting slur. You can then position both ends of the slur (needs two markers one before each end of the slur) to the vertical position that you want the ends of the slurs to be placed.

General Discussion / Music stuttering problem with VST (Coolsoft) running on Windows 10 /11- Solved!
For those of you who use Coolsoft VST (or maybe other VST systems) as the sound system for NWC running under Windows 10 or 11 and have experienced a very annoying stutter of the music, where the notes play late or perhaps are shortened to catch up with where the music ought to be, then perhaps this is the solution for you.

The problem is caused by Microsoft Edge  (even if you don't use Microsoft edge or have not got it running at the same time as NoteWorthy).

Microsoft Edge is automatically installed in within Windows 10 and 11. Unfortunately, when it is installed, the default settings have an option which subsequently affects the VST. This is :

"Continue running background extensions and apps when Microsoft Edge is closed"

Even if you have turned this off, if there has been a windows update, it may have been turned on again.

This option leaves Edge running even if you are not using Edge and can really mess up your sound reproduction through VST.


What this option does is to monitor things such as Facebook and other websites for updates so that it can notify you. It leaves a whole host of processes running in your pc.

So to turn it off, start up Edge, and click the ellipsis (three dots) on the top right of the screen and select settings.
Then select "System and Performance"

In the window labelled System you will see "Continue running background extensions and apps when Microsoft Edge is closed". Turn this off.
Consider turning off Start up boost as well.

Exit Edge.

Remember to re-check this setting after Windows updates since it may have been switched on again if there has been an update to Edge.

The picture is of the Edge processes when the setting is switched on but Edge is not running.

General Discussion / Re: Slur Marks
Select the very first note that relates to the slur.
Go to the note properties (ALT and Enter  while the note is highlighted)
In there you will find Slur Direction and you can change the direction between downward and upward.

You can also do the same thing  for ties from the note properties.

General Discussion / Re: stems horizontally split
For the highest note (the D ?) on it's appropriate staff,  go into note properties for the note and then set the extra note spacing to 1 and override stem length to 0 .

Then although you will see a light stem in the editor, if you print out the music or use the viewer mode of viewer, then you will not see the stem and the chord will look correct.

Raffaele,

Qui si spera è un passo dopo passo.
1. Salva il tuo file nwc come .nwctxt
2. Aprire Convertitore NWC
3. Fai clic su "Seleziona un file da convertire"
4. Nella casella che si apre, seleziona il tuo file .nwctxt
5. Fare clic sulle schede "Pagina del titolo" e "Parti del pentagramma"
  e cambia tutto ciò di cui hai bisogno.
6. Fare clic su OK
7. Fare clic su Converti
8. Al termine, prendere nota di dove è stato salvato il nuovo file. Avrà un nome che termina con .musicxml
9. Fare clic su Salva e prendere nota della posizione del file.
10. Apri Musescore
11. Apri file
12 Seleziona il file .musicxml da dove lo hai salvato in 9 sopra
13. Attendi il caricamento e, se necessario, salvalo in formato musescore.

Saluti

Ciao Raffaele,
Rispondendo a nome di Opagust. Sì ! Questo è esattamente ciò che puoi fare. Se usi lo strumento di Opagust per caricare la versione nwctxt del tuo file nwc. Quindi devi controllare tutte le opzioni. Quando sei felice, fai clic sul pulsante di conversione e ti darà un file musicxml che può essere caricato in Musescore. La conversione ti darà un file aggiuntivo e quindi manterrai sempre il file nwctxt originale.

Spero che sia di aiuto.

Thanks to your tool we are able to distribute it to people that don't have NWC.  :)

But also convert xml files from other music programs and pdf scanners  into nwctxt.

I have to say that  Opagust's converter goes so much further than other converters that you may find around (one in particular that I used to use for a long time) because it really is tailored to nwc functions specifically the user objects.

I have also been greatly impressed by the way that improvements have been made following reports of something that was not quite right.

Thanks Opagust.
