This tool converts a sequence of notes to a rhythmic pattern (visual only) using the rhythmic slash notation. (See attached image as an example.) The original notes (or chords) are uninportant and will be standardized and muted. What matters is simply their duration. Assumes font User 1 being MusicDingsSans or MusicDingsSerif with the same size of the standard NWC2STDA.
I was recently watching a review of NWC on YouTube, that mentioned its lack of rhythmic slash notation. I was unfamiliar with slash notation at that time, so I looked into it a bit. I am curious whether you also saw this review, and whether it was the motivation for creating this user tool.
Of course, when I see something like this, my mind always says "I wonder how this could be done by a user object". It is possible to do something like CueHeads.ms and draw slashes on headless stems. I haven't tried out this new tool yet, but I will do so to get a feel for what it does.

It uses the char '/' of MusicDingsSans or MusicDingsSerif with the same size of the standard NWC2STDA. By default that font is assumed as font User 1, but a different User font (1..6) can be specified on the command line. E.g., "scripts\fl_SlashNotation.lua 3" to use User 3.

Done! Easier than I thought. I thought it involved stems and noteheads, which needed tweaking. These acciaccaturas are repeated throughout many of the 138 measures. I was a little skeptical about the transcription. Thanks! Guten Sonntag! Lorenzo

Like this? - i.e., with spacers of size 1.25 ... I hope the relative position remains stable also after page layout changes; I tried a few modifications (e.g. different margins, extending staves to end-of-line), and it seems to work.

I've encountered this acciaccatura that I can't write as per the sheet music, which I've attached. The two small eighth notes with the cut on the stem don't overlap perfectly at the junction of the two staves, baritone and bass. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks, and have a great weekend. Lorenzo

No, no, the disk isn't full, still 115 GB. Couldn't it be a folder linked to NWC? Anyway, now I save manually, just like I did before, except that message didn't appear. I removed the "every 15 minutes" autosave setting from my settings. Lorenzo

Disk full? ... ... that would have been the answer reflex up to maybe 10 years ago. But do you actually have an old drive/computer that has been filled to capacity over the years?

Good morning, For some time now, while using NWC, I've been seeing the message in Attachment 1. My settings (Attachment 2) have never been changed. Do I need to change anything? Thank you. Lorenzo
