Re: Chop Notation Symbols

[Pierre Perol-Schneider]

You're welcome Greg.

Usually, I do the drawing manually because it is more accurate. But you're right, for your glyphs I have used the paths from Inkscape.

Cheers,

Pierre

Thanks Pierre!

Am I correct in understanding that make-path-stencil accepts SVG paths?

Reference for other curious individuals: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Tutorial/Paths

I assume that you didn't code these paths by hand.

 - What tool did you use?

 - What does an SVG file with these same paths look like?

I'm curious because I may want to make my own symbols, and this seems like an elegant solution.

Casey Driessen and Oriole Saña have developed some new symbols for notating the violin/fiddle technique called chopping.

You can see .png images of these symbols here:

More background on the technique is available at:

How would one add these symbols to LilyPond? I know it's possible to draw shapes, but I'm not sure exactly how to do that.

Any help is greatly appreciated,
