General Discussion / Re: How to separate percussion into individual staffs?

You might try checking: 'Long Task Handling' on your user tool setup.

General Discussion / Re: How to separate percussion into individual staffs?

2019-08-14 05:10 pm

You might try this:

With the tool: Pitch Mod, move some instruments so that none are within 2 semitones of another
Add playing style: Tenuto to the begining of each staff
Set each staff to MIDI channel 10
Export to MIDI
Import the file you just saved specifying a Track Size of 2 semitones
Shift the instrument notes moved in step 1 to their desired place

using the right arrow key I can scroll an active shorter staff until the end of it is on the left edge of the window.

Works for me. Mouse wheel works too.

If you hover over the horizontal scroll bar, rolling the mouse wheel will get you there fairly quickly.

Here's a poor-man's demo:

It doesn't handle leger lines properly. The notestems still need to be shifted to the right or they won't align with other voices/parts in the score. A user object would have quite a bit to do to get this right. Custom stem lengths are needed in many cases, especially where there are lyrics. Since stem lengths are set to zero for visual reasons, a user object would need some other way to get that info.

Quote from: Lawrie Pardy – 2019-06-20 12:32 am

you would need to make the stem length zero and maybe use an object to draw the stem on the required side.

Or just use a layer for the stems:

Quote from: Flurmy – 2019-05-11 09:18 am

When there is a suite of arpeggios on the same notes and the arpeggios must be played anticipated, then the note off of the previous notes arrive after the note on of the anticipated following arpeggio ...
Any idea on how to circumvent this without big impact on the visible score (beside using a playing hidden layer, of course)?

Perhaps:

Code: (nwc) [Select · Download]

!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.751,Single)
|Bar
|User|Arpeggio.ms|Pos:-3|Anticipated:Y

|Rest|Dur:8th|Opts:Stem=Up|Visibility:Never
!NoteWorthyComposerClip-End

It appears that Arpeggio.ms uses Dur to time the note off and ignores Dur2

I am assuming that a user tool can determine the currently specified duration when it is run.

Unless there have been recent improvements to the API, the current duration is not available.

There are ways to get the info by forcing keystrokes into NWC. I abandoned that approach years ago.

NoteWorthy will not automatically beam across a major beat. The time signature controls what a major beat is.
So we have this:

Code: (nwc) [Select · Download]

!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.751,Single)
|TimeSig|Signature:2/2
|Note|Dur:8th|Pos:0|Opts:Stem=Down,Beam=First
|Note|Dur:8th|Pos:0|Opts:Stem=Down,Beam
|Note|Dur:8th|Pos:0|Opts:Stem=Down,Beam
|Note|Dur:8th|Pos:0|Opts:Stem=Down,Beam=End
|Rest|Dur:Half
|Bar
|TimeSig|Signature:4/4
|Note|Dur:8th|Pos:0|Opts:Stem=Down,Beam=First
|Note|Dur:8th|Pos:0|Opts:Stem=Down,Beam=End
|Note|Dur:8th|Pos:0|Opts:Stem=Down,Beam=First
|Note|Dur:8th|Pos:0|Opts:Stem=Down,Beam=End
|Rest|Dur:Half
|Bar
!NoteWorthyComposerClip-End

This is a conservative approach. Some scores use this approach, some do not.

Your concept might not be as useful as you think.

NoteWorthy's compressed file format (at least since version 2.5) is not a secret. For someone with your resources, it should be possible to write an inflater that work with a non-Windows operating system.

Quote from: Alan_J – 2019-02-13 09:10 pm

I don't understand PHP and the usage is unclear to me, but it would appear I should be able to convert standard to shape noteheads and make the tool just leave off converting one of the notes. Am I reading that correctly? If so, that might simplify things a great deal to just leave SOL out of the conversion altogether.

Down around line 40 you will see this:

Code: (php) [Select · Download]

$AllShapeNotes = array("4-shape" => "dfgdfgc", "7-shape" => "abcdfgh");

I suggest a change to:

Code: (php) [Select · Download]

$AllShapeNotes = array("4-shape" => "dogdogc", "7-shape" => "abcdogh");

Since you have been brave enough to look at the code, this should not be too shocking

In the attached file the top staff is completely hidden so shouldn't affect the print-out in any way.

A collapsed staff does affect printing. Perhaps it shouldn't, but NoteWorthy says it does. See:

how to use the visibility options. I have only ever used Default and Never. What's up with all the other settings?

I do not use any visibility setting other than: Default, Always and Never.

The other settings help users that are trying to create printable versions of the score and parts in one file. I am not one of those users.

It only appears on the Top staff, so you could use a layer:

It seems that PageTxt.nw is not happy with the "Section close"

I don't think "Section close" is the problem.
In measure 74, you have:

If the director chooses not to use the oboe, then I'd like the piano to play a combo of the notes that were distributed to the oboe plus the piano part. Do you have any thoughts on this?

You might add the oboe part as a descant to the piano part.

General Discussion / Re: calculating font size

2018-12-27 05:50 pm

The margins in the song are not compatible with any of my printers.
You don't specify what size paper you are using.
I don't have the fonts in the song.

That said, I see a difference between 24pt and 26pt, consistent with what I would expect.

Either one.

The Slur.ms under the text is thinner because it starts on a grace note. (The code does this on purpose.)

Good to know.

Quote from: Mike Shawaluk – 2018-12-23 08:54 pm

However, you can perform the same thing without having to insert a grace rest, like such:

Not really. That doesn't expand well in Print Preview:

Not with a slur object. But now that NWC supports Unicode, you can fiddle around with a text approach:
