Subject: RE: Markup macro?
Hey stewerd,
i'm relatively new at lilypond so i dont know how to make
functions. But since you've tried to help me. i thought it's not only about
taking here.
\relative c'{c4-\markup { \finger 2 "-" \finger
3}}
gives the output i think you're looking for. Now, how to
put this in a function, i wouldn't know. I hope this is of any
help.
gr. tiM
p.s. on intuitive reading, i think the/one problem of
your code is that the \finger command only allows you to place numbers (i
think). You should look at the output of \finger more as characters than
as a real font.
Hi,
I'm trying to do something like:
fingerSwitch = #(define-music-function
(parser location text) (string?)
#{
\markup {
\finger $text }
#})
c4-\fingerSwitch
but it's not working. I guess that you can't
attach scheme code to a note in such a way. Is there a nice neat solution to
this? The original problem is that if I use, say:
c4-"3-2"
the fingering font is not used, so I'm trying
to remedy that with the above scheme code.
Thanks,
Stewart
