Justification Inconsistency between Edit Window and Print

2004-07-24 01:10 pm

There is a minor inconsistency between the two, as shown in the following. In the edit window, the first dynamic does not collide with the notehead, but does so when printed (or when viewed in the print preview window).

Quite apart from the particular issue: The edit window and print (preview) often do not have exactly the same alignment. This is the usual situation, rather than something peculiar to version 2.

This works as expected. It is quite true that the editor will look different than the printed version.

At the very least, you should enable Preserve Width on these items if you don't want to use vertical placement to avoid collisions.

It may work as expected, but it is slightly different than 1.75. Either the noteheads in 2.0 have moved slightly to the left (print) or the alignment has moved slightly to the right. Shouldn't both have moved together?

To get the same look in converting from 1.75 to 2.0 requires editing every dynamic. Not a big problem in itself, but rather tedious and boring when converting hundreds of files.

Agreed. It is true that NWC2 differs in its presentation of notated work from NWC1.

I am honestly trying to understand the purpose of the Alignment/Placement choices, and I am perplexed. Things that make a difference in the editor, do not make a difference in the printing.

For instance, I have copied the following into four staffs, and edited the Alignment/Placement of the dynamic so each staff has a different one of the four choices (each dynamic with Justify:Right; the first dynamic in the staff without Preserve Width enabled, and the second with it enabled) to see what the differences are. Placement:AtNextNote collides terribly with the note stem, but the other three appear to print in the exact same place -- just touching the note stem. The results in printing appear to be the same whether Preserve Width is or is not enabled.

If this works as expected, why so many choices for the same result?

Dynamics are not the only things that can have "variable placement". Try the same experiment with, say, some long text, or flow control.

HI, my nmae is Gennaro Granito also. I wonder if we are related. My father's name was David and my grandfather was Gennaro Granito in Brooklyn NY.

Re: Justification Inconsistency between Edit Window and Print

Reply #8 – 2004-09-05 07:53 pm

Following up on Stephen's reply, Gennaro, you'll see your notes are set to "stem down."

Your first dynamic marking has the following attributes:
Preserve width Off,
Justified Right
Placement Best fit

With left or centre justification, it would collide with the note stems, but if the note stems went up instead of down, those settings would be better.

Check out the settings for each rehearsal letter, instrument change and tent accent in this example to see the differences some of the settings make.

...NWC2 differs in its presentation of notated work from NWC1.
So when I get NWC2, I'm gonna hafta update/change/alter all 2,396 of my NWC1 files?!??!?!?!

Re: Justification Inconsistency between Edit Window and Print

In reply to David:

The clip was taken from one of my 2,396 NWC1 files that I had been updating/changing/altering to NWC2. It was a bar taken from a staff that was layered with another staff, and that staff had other notes whose stems were "stems up". The dynamic was placed in front of the stem so that it would not collide with the staff below.

In NWC 1.75, a dynamic placed "At Next Note/Bar" with all other choices at the default gave me a very good printed result in almost all cases, so I used it a lot. Here is a clip that uses that dynamic placement and is taken from a bar of the Viola staff unaltered from the 1.75 version (Mozart's Divertimento No. 15, Adagio).

The dynamic prints so far to the right that it looks like it looks like it pertains to the next note. I have not found a single expression placement choice that gives me a very good printed result in nearly all cases. If I could find one, I would partly automate the conversion to 2.0.

To Gerry: could be. My father (b. 1903) grew up in Bayonne, NJ.

I don't think you'll find "one size fits all," but you should be able to find one that suits you most of the time, and be able to tweak the other ones.

I had already done something similar myself in both NWC1 and NWC2, and came to the conclusion that I could narrow dynamic placement down to two choices in NWC2. Here is the NWC2 version of what I did. You will have to set the staff properties, visual, vertical size, both upper and lower to 24 to see it properly. To my eye Preserve width unchecked, Justify left, Best fit forward looks best for notes with accidentals. For notes without accidentals the same except Justify center looks best.

I think I agree, as long as the notes are stem down.

When the notes are stem up, these settings don't work as well, particularly if the notes are in the lower leger lines.

Isn't it nice to have the flexibility?

One suggestion I'd make is to have the dynamic vertical position a little lower than in your example.
