General Discussion / Re: Global_mod for text size and alignment change ?

2018-01-10 05:58 am

Global_mod cannot modify the Lyric object. That function is disabled:

Code: (php) [Select · Download]

	if (preg_match('/^\|(AddStaff|Lyric)/',$item)) {
		// Structural objects are skipped
		gzwrite($zout,$item);

General Discussion / Re: Share with Finale or Sibelius

2017-12-28 01:02 am

Quote from: Mike Shawaluk – 2017-12-28 12:24 am

Normally, when you save a score with Noteworthy Composer, it saves a compressed binary file with the extension .nwc

This was true prior to NWC 2.5
NoteWorthy originally used a binary format. It also sent the binary format through the Clipboard which resulted in many strange behaviors. The language of NoteWorthy is now nwctxt. Since ver 2.5 NWC just adds a header and compresses nwctxt, an improvement IMO.

General Discussion / Re: Smoother piano sound during playback

2017-12-13 09:52 pm

My first thought was Reverb, but that didn't do much for me. Sustain does.
Try the attachment. Note that all staves are MIDI Channel 1.
If you want to hear the difference, set the Control Staff to some other MIDI Channel. Muting it does nothing

Quote from: Flurmy – 2017-11-27 08:48 pm

Nevertheless, the handling of the decorated bars with the special endings is not always intuitive.

I agree. For really complex flows, I put a hidden Master Repeat Close at the end and use hidden Special Endings to manage the flow. I put the barlines I need on unplayable layers.

Quote from: SEBC – 2017-11-27 02:13 pm

I need to jump back and forth [...] Any other tips and tricks to help in this endeavour?

Use NWC's Find Command.

Put in some invisible Text items consisting of a sequence that won't normally appear in a score. I use two semicolons followed by a lower case letter:

Code: (nwc) [Select · Download]

!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.751,Single)
|Text|Text:";;a"|Font:StaffItalic|Pos:9|Visibility:Never
!NoteWorthyComposerClip-End

This gives me 26 bookmarks.
After using them for while, the Find Command will build a list of them for you.

To remove all your bookmarks, Search for:

Quote

|Text|Text:";;*"*|Visibility:Never

Go to the beginning of the score, Press F3, delete until they are all gone.

2017-11-19 06:49 pm

Quote from: Flurmy – 2017-11-19 02:32 pm

The workaround is very simple: just add a hidden crescendo, but why is it needed?

I don't know what you are trying to work around with that advice; in performance, rfz is not the same as cresc.

As NoteWorthy Dynamic Variances: Crescendo, Decescendo and Diminuendo all do the same thing.
Rinforzando and Sforzando do nothing. It is useful to have at least one Dynamic Variance that does nothing.
NoteWorthy looks back to the Staff Position of the last Dynamic or Dynamic Variance to position hairpins.

General Discussion / Re: Clipboard data

2017-11-04 06:04 pm

If you have the discipline to put some dummy object only at the end of each staff, you could search for that object.
In general, the answer is no. If the last object is:

Code: (nwc) [Select · Download]

|Bar|Style:SectionClose

you would be correct in assuming the end of staff most of the time.

A User Tool that receives File Text can be written to detect if the selection includes the last item on the staff.

perhaps it wouldn't have happened if the top visible staff, in this case Staff 2, were treated as Top Staff for the purposes of the Visibility=Top Staff Only. Something for the wish list?

Meh. The Top Staff is home to so many notation elements (Expression, Tempo, Sections, SysBreaks) that I think a better approach is to never collapse the Top Staff.

User Tools / Tools to get a staff and paste a staff to a song

2017-11-01 08:47 pm

The attached User Tool: rg_getStaff.vbs will get the current staff and return it to the STDOUT window as a report.
From there, a user can select it and copy it to the Clipboard. The staff can then be pasted as a New File, to an editor, or added to a song with The User Tool: rg_pasteStaff.vbs

If the script is placed in the Scripts folder (remove .txt), the command is:

Code: [Select · Download]

CScript //nologo Scripts\rg_getStaff.vbs

Input Type is: File text

The attached User Tool: rg_pasteStaff.vbs will paste a staff from the Clipboard.
The Clipboard must contain at least one line that begins with:

Code: (nwc) [Select · Download]

|AddStaff

The staff (or staves) are inserted above the current staff.
StaffProperties, a StaffInstrument, Lyrics, and staff objects are supported.

If the script is placed in the Scripts folder (remove .txt), the command is:

Code: [Select · Download]

CScript //nologo Scripts\rg_pasteStaff.vbs

Input Type is: File text
Required Option is: Returns File Text

Oh, yes, there is the relevant Windows API call, I know.
What I mean is: doesn't it exists in Lua too?

Good luck tring to use the Windows API in a script.
My code uses the "htmlfile" COM object to get text from the Clipboard.
To put text into the Clipboard, it writes and runs a hypertext application.
This latter step raised security flags when it tied to do in PHP.

I don't know how to do any of this in Lua.

Sorry for the stupid question but... there isn't a way to put things in the clipboard programmatically?

For text, there is a way in VBScript. See rg_lyricCopy.vbs for an example. It will also paste text from the Clipboard.

Yes, that's common, but did you try exporting as .emf file?
The quality should be perfect.
At most the problem could be a partial image, but I don't think this could be the case.

The quality of EMF export is good. IrfanView can invert and convert EMF into GIF
It is a multi-step process suitable for dozens of pages but not hundreds.

Why does NWC2.75 works well while the newest update reproduces an incomplete picture.

Just a guess here as Windows is getting too complex for me to simulate font environments. The latest versions of NWC may not need NWC2STDA.ttf to be registered as a font. Your printer driver probably does need NWC2STDA.ttf to be registered as a font. Somewhere along the line, the copy of NWC2STDA.ttf that was registered may have been deleted or moved.

It would be nice if certain objects (...) could have an option specifying an opaque background.

I suggested long ago that transparent and background be added to the Color list. Each has its uses.

Quote from: William Ashworth – 2017-09-06 07:33 pm

does this mean that the rendering engine renders user objects last? That would explain why "digital whiteout" doesn't appear to work on them.

I don't know. An example would help. If you put the whiteout on a layer that comes after the staff with the undesired ink it will white it out. This can get tricky if you don't want to obscure the staff lines. At worse, this might require yet another layer.

2017-07-19 10:07 pm

Quote from: William Ashworth – 2017-07-19 04:17 pm

When working on files, I almost always use the same zoom (4=133%) whatever the file, because the note size and number of measures per screen is comfortable for me at that setting.

I do not. IMO, the zoom factor should be stored in the file.
It might be useful if NWC did not flag the zoom as a file change, but since it is a file change, this would look like an inconsistency (or even a bug.)
It is convienient Ctrl+Z will undo it.

A possible solution might be for NWC's Save Prompt to say: "Only the Zoom has changed." This would allow the user to make a more intelligent decision.

I would suggest a failsafe:
Add a zip file to NoteWorthy Composer Downloads
If the zip file is large, an option to get just the last three months worth of updates might be useful.

In NWC and the viewer where you have 'Online Sync ...', add an option for Zip Sync ...'

An offline user could go to a public library or use a tablet or cell phone to get the zip file.
Worst case, the user would need to copy the zip to a thumb drive.

Quote from: Lloyd – 2017-07-10 10:36 pm

I think it's not really complicated

I hope you are right. It could be that some new function call(s) were added.
When I last looked at the API, it seemed that that all the Boundary items in the current system have to be identified and the largest value selected. If there was no Boundary item setting the boundary in the first bar of the system, the Boundary item prior to the system that set the boundary would need to be located and used. This seemed too complex for me so I gave up.

Quote from: hmmueller – 2017-06-30 09:20 am

I dont see how this could work:
Either you dont put in a D.S.al Coda (or you put it after the hidden master repeat close): Then the coda instruction will not be triggered, and the verse will be played 4 times.
Or you place a D.S. al Code before the master repeat close - then highlighting the verse 3 lyrics wont happen.
Or do I miss something?

You missed something. In my example, measure 9 plays. The third lyric in m9 is not highlighted in Warren's example because he didn't have a third lyric there.

Encountering a D.S. doesn't increment the verse counter.
The verse counter increments when playback encounters a Master Repeat Close.

You've obviously spent much time with this.

About an hour to figure out the problem. A mistake I shall try to avoid in the future.
I should have just assumed that muted tie destinations were the problem. It only took about 15 minutes to find them.

Quote from: Richard Woodroffe – 2017-06-16 10:27 pm

I suspect that there maybe a midi overload problem on your pc perhaps.

I don't.
I have spent some time with the file. I find a stuck note on Oboe II if playback is started at 286
It gets worse, becoming a real mess by 381
To be continued ...

Appears to be a muted note problem. When I unmute all the notes in Oboe II, the problem at 286 goes away.

This causes the stuck note at 286:

Code: (nwc) [Select · Download]

!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.751,Single)
# Oboe II, m78
|Note|Dur:4th,Dotted|Pos:-1^
|Bar
|Note|Dur:16th|Pos:-1|Opts:Stem=Up,Beam=First,Muted
!NoteWorthyComposerClip-End

The stuck notes are caused by muted tie destinations on tied notes that are not muted.
To fix, unmute the tie destination note in these staves and measures:
Flute II 742
Oboe II 79, 170, 741
Violin I 5, 386
Violin II 5, 385
Soprano I 305, 313, 742

Something (perhaps a User Tool) managed to create a Dur: without a slur and a Dur2: with a slur. This confuses the GUI which shows a slur but won't let you remove it. Or fix it.

it might be useful to create a custom object to draw the measure repeat sign

IMO, it would. It is not easy to find the center of the empty part of a bar, which is where the repeat should be placed. A User Object ought to be able to detect if the bar is the first one in a system and make the proper adjustment for any auto clef/key/tsig that might be there.

Nice and simple solution.

It is, but at some point you are going to need to control the Stem Length of the notes. If you use a split chord, you get the same Stem Length for each voice. I would suggest something like this:
