General Discussion / showing on the same staff
In attached file the first two measures should be played by the piano. The next measure is for the choir. In NoteWorthy Composer the piano and the choir are separate staffs, but they should be print as one staff.
How do I have to create the music in Noteworthy Composer to create the same score as the picture? This is my attempt.

Regards,
Guido

General Discussion / general format lay-out sheet music
What is most general lay-out of sheet music used for singers and instrument players?
I want to know general settings for the lyric fonts, the distance between staff and lyrics (and also between the lyrics and the next staff). Also, what is ideal distance between the first set of staffs (are they called "system"?) and the next one?

Also I want to know if there is a way to create two lines for the lyricist and/or the author,

I hope anyone can help me.

Regards,
Guido

General Discussion / share NWC files for displaying onto wall, independent onto the format
I have a lot of NWC files with a single line notation, used for displaying onto a wall.
Every wall (and projector) is different, so the settings (font, size, line break, etc.) into the file are also different.
I want to share the files (.nwctxt) with other people.

Is there a way to merge the .nwctxt file with the settings of Noteworthy Composer, which are committed with their projector/wall?
If not, do you have another idea how to share the files?

People who do not have a license of NWC, can they print a song to a picture (PNG, JPG or GIF)?

Regards,
Guido

General Discussion / NWC on Ubuntu

General Discussion / Re: more space between some lines
I tried to understand HOW it is working:
Code: (nwc) [Select · Download]
|Boundary|Style:NewSize|Upper:16
|Text|Text:"Refrein"|Font:StaffItalic|Pos:8

Does the number after "Upper" to be twice the number after "Pos" (8 * 2 = 16)?

Regards,
Guido van Harten

General Discussion / more space between some lines
Sometimes I have a song with directions ("All", "men", "women", "Refrain", etc.).
These directions should have the same font size as the lyrics (I want do display the song using a projector onto a wall).
But how do I create more space between the fourth and the fifth line? (Please tell me which function in NWC I have to use).

Regards,
Guido

General Discussion / best lay-out
I am looking for the best settings for my NWC-files when using the prints in a choir (which font, fontsize, etc.).

General Discussion / slurs
I want to create a song which has a note in verse #1 contains 1 syllable and in verse #2 contains 2 syllables (two notes of a half duration).
The notes should be slurred "eventually", but I do not know how to do that.
Who can help me?

Regards,
Guido van Harten
(my apologize for the bad explanation).

General Discussion / bar lines
On a music sheet, I see three staffs (soprano, alto, baritone).
In the staffs I don't see measure bar lines. I only see these lines between the soprano bar and the alto bar and also between alto and baritone.
The duration of the measures (actually are that measure bars?) is not the same in the measures.
How do I create these bar lines?

Regards.

General Discussion / sharp/flat sign between paranthesis
In my music score I sometimes see a flat (or sharp) accidental sign between paranthesis - I think it's optional to play a flat/sharp tone or not.
How do I set this in Noteworthy?

Guido van Harten

General Discussion / 'strange' instruments
When I create a new song in NWC, the first 4 staves always has a piano sound, but when I add more staves, these staves sounds as 'ping' when I add notes to that stave. Even when changing the instrument to another, it is sounds unchanged. Also when saved to nwctxt, that file does not contain instrument names.

What is the best way to add staves which has the 'basic' piano sound?
68
General Discussion / hiding staff (another question)
In topic 9111 I asked about hiding a staff. Rick answered me and I understand that. After that the song was printed good.
After making many other changes to the song, I am not able again to hide the staff, but it seems not to be the same problem.
Who can help me?

I only want to print out the staffs called S, A, T and B. In measure 16 starts a part where all men should sing unisono and all women also should sing unisono. I want to print from measure 16 (till 30) only two staffs (A (alto) and B (bass)), but there is an empty staff in my print.
How can I hide / collapse that staff in the right way.

The PDF has the right format, but some other bugs, which are fixed meanwhile. The NWC is the current file.

Regards,
Guido

General Discussion / determining version
Accidentally I overwrite my NWC2.51-file with the NWC1.75. There is a .BAK-file, but I do not know if the .BAK is the original 2.51-file.
On which way can I determine if the .BAK-file (in the meantime renamed to another name and extension .NWC) is my original 2.51 file?
71
General Discussion / hiding staff
I am making a song where I want one staff should not be visible (tenor and bass are the same music, so it is not need to show both lines).
The way I tried to do it, is pressing the "]". When I make a print preview, there is still a line without notes and measure marks.

How do I hide the whole bar? In the enclosed song it is the third staff (labeled with "T" (tenor)), measures 15 to 30

In advance thanks for helping.

Guido

Tips & Tricks / create playlist of several NWC files

Now I want to create a playlist, that will play continious all the selected songs, so the singers can learn it easy.
How do I do that?
74
General Discussion / more space between staffs
I will make a music sheet with a variable distance between the staffs, so I can write other text between the staffs.
What is the best way to increase the distance?

General Discussion / song with 5 verses; 1 refrain
I have a song (5 verses).
The song has a refrain (same words) which I places at verse 1.
The distance between the staffs in the refrain is large, because there is only 1 text line. How do I decrease the the distance?

General Discussion / Re: colored syllables
Might I suggest an alternative solution?
Connect the projector to your NWC PC, or maybe better still, a PC with the viewer installed, put the viewer window on the projector "screen", maximise it, open the song to be played (I suggest you set it up as a lead sheet for the displayed part and hide the staves doing the work) and as long as the "lead sheet" has both melody and lyrics, the playback note chase will highlight the notes and syllables perfectly.

There is already a computer connected to the projector.
Thanks, but that's not a suitable solution for my case.
The music in the church doesn't play at the same tempo as the music in NWC, without a long time of exercising...

The question for now is over; I need it for the service this morning and (because the music is a little bit difficult), we didn't sing the song...

General Discussion / Re: colored syllables
I want to explain my "problem" clearly.
I want to make a couple of sheets for projecting a song on a wall (using a projector). It is for singing the song with a few deaf people. These people should have to see which note (and text) is singing now.
The position of the notes and the lyrics on sheet #2 and above, should be the same as sheet #1; only the colour is different.
When I use the given solutions mentioned above, I am afraid that the notes and lyrics of sheet #2 (and above) doesn't have the same position.
While singing the song, at each syllable/note I view the next picture. If they haven't the same position, text and notes are "jumping"...

General Discussion / Re: colored syllables
In Richard's reply the syllable "lev" was a short one, so when I use "_" in the lyric line, the space is room enough.
But how to do when the syllable is longer (words as "through" or longer)?
80
General Discussion / colored syllables
I want to make a song with one syllable colored.
Not only the music note, but also the lyric (syllable).
What do I have to do so?
81
General Discussion / sharp or flat between parenthese
Sometimes I see in my scores a flat or sharp symbol which is placed between parentheses.
How do I set these symbols into NWC?
Looking in the help sections ("parenthese", "#") didn't help.
82
General Discussion / Re: simple notations
First for my information: Is the way I give my song (in text format) the only possible way?
I do not use the NWCTXT format furthermore, just I use this for this topic

That's why I have a question: how do I set the tie destinations to "Lyric=Never" in NWC (NOT in NWCTXT)?

For example I've placed the original music in the lower staff.
After following Warren's tips you'll see the result in the upper staff...
But now the lyrics are not on the right place...

General Discussion / simple notations
Some of my songs contains many slurs and/or ties. Can I convert these to a single note for a syllable?
(When I display my songs onto a wall, slurs and/or ties doesn't read easily for some people).
