Title: NoteWhizzy 0.1 released!
Post by: Mike Wiering on 2004-12-20 09:08 PM
Hello all,

I made a user tool named NoteWhizzy that enables you to copy rhythm, slurs, dynamics, articulations, etc. from one bar to the following bar(s) without changing the notes.

Enjoy!

Hey, that's cool!
I suppose it doesn't work with version 1, though.
I don't see support for user tools anywhere.

Yep, user tools are part of NWC2, not 1.

Yeah! I think I can put this to good use.
Unfortunately, it will have to wait a bit... most of the .nwc files I produce are still in 1.x format, because of the host of people I share them with.
But, definitely nice.

Hi Mike,
Looks good, but it doesn't copy ties. (bug or feature?)

Nevertheless I could have used it just 1 day before I learned of it.  Bad timing on my part :)

Thankyou,
Lawrie

Hi again Mike,
I had occasion to use notewhizzy today but found another problem:

I was copying Pedal marks and I found that the pedal release, though shown in the text window after the first stage - "copy articulation" - was not copied back to the staff in the second stage - I will mention this in the news groups too as I think it may be a NWC2 bug.  There was a similar situation with one of Andrew Purdhams tools.

You're right, it doesn't copy ties, I hadn't noticed yet, but I'll look at it.

Pedal marks/releases seem to work fine in my tests, but I don't know what you exactly tried.

Hi Mike,
to be more specific, it was only pedal releases at the end of a bar.  Pedal releases before the last note (rest? didn't check that) were OK.

Hi again Mike,
just did a quick test:

In the following clip the second pedal release is not copied:

Code: [Select · Download]
!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.0,Single)
|SustainPedal|Pos:-8|Wide:Y
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|SustainPedal|Status:Released|Pos:-8|Wide:Y
|SustainPedal|Pos:-8|Wide:Y

|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|SustainPedal|Status:Released|Pos:-8|Wide:Y

|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|Bar
!NoteWorthyComposerClip-End
However in this clip it is.  The trailing rest in each bar can also be a note:

Code: [Select · Download]
!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.0,Single)
|SustainPedal|Pos:-8|Wide:Y
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|SustainPedal|Status:Released|Pos:-8|Wide:Y
|SustainPedal|Pos:-8|Wide:Y
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|SustainPedal|Status:Released|Pos:-8|Wide:Y
|Rest|Dur:4th
|Bar
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|Rest|Dur:4th
|Bar
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|Rest|Dur:4th
|Bar
!NoteWorthyComposerClip-End
Thus it appears in this rather slight test that the problem is only if the pedal release is the last element in the bar.

I would also like to correct a previous statement:  The sustain pedal update does _not_ appear in the notewhizzy window after the first <enter>.

Mea culpa, I didn't check carefully enough the first time.
