Re: Automatization

[Valentin Petzel]

Hello Vincent,

first of all you can achieve the same thing maybe slightly more transparently 
like this, which also allows for modification of the stencil:

#(define (white-under grob) (grob-interpret-markup grob
   (markup #:vcenter #:whiteout #:pad-x 1 (ly:grob-property grob 'text))))

inlineMMRNa = {
   \once \override MultiMeasureRest.layer = #-2
   \once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber.layer = #-1
   \once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber.Y-offset = #0
   \once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber.stencil = #white-under
}

inlineMMRNb = {
   \once \override MultiMeasureRest.layer = #-2
   \once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber.layer = #-1
   \once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber.Y-offset = #ly:self-alignment-
interface::y-aligned-on-self
   \once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber.self-alignment-Y = #CENTER
   \once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber.whiteout = #10
}

<<
\new Staff
{
  \compressEmptyMeasures
  \inlineMMRNa R1*12
  % overriding the MMNR stencil:
  \inlineMMRNa \once\override MultiMeasureRestNumber.stencil =
    #(grob-transformer 'stencil (lambda (grob orig) (circle-stencil orig 0.2 
0.3)))
  R1*12
  % other way round
  \once\override MultiMeasureRestNumber.stencil =
    #(grob-transformer 'stencil (lambda (grob orig) (circle-stencil orig 0.2 
0.3)))
  \inlineMMRNa R1*12
}
\new Staff
{
  \compressEmptyMeasures  \inlineMMRNb R1*12
  % overriding the MMNR stencil:
  \inlineMMRNb \once\override MultiMeasureRestNumber.stencil =
    #(grob-transformer 'stencil (lambda (grob orig) (circle-stencil orig 0.2 
0.3)))
  R1*12
  % other way round
  \once\override MultiMeasureRestNumber.stencil =
    #(grob-transformer 'stencil (lambda (grob orig) (circle-stencil orig 0.2 
0.3)))
  \inlineMMRNb R1*12
}
>>

To get this to work for all MultiMeasureRests, simply replace the \once by a 
\temporary and use \revert to get back to the original behaviour, like this:

inlineMMRNon = {
   \once \override MultiMeasureRest.layer = #-2
   \once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber.layer = #-1
   \once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber.Y-offset = #ly:self-alignment-
interface::y-aligned-on-self
   \once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber.self-alignment-Y = #CENTER
   \once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber.whiteout = #10
}

inlineMMRNoff = {
   \revert MultiMeasureRest.layer
   \revert MultiMeasureRestNumber.layer
   \revert MultiMeasureRestNumber.Y-offset
   \revert MultiMeasureRestNumber.self-alignment-Y
   \revert MultiMeasureRestNumber.whiteout
}


{
  \compressEmptyMeasures
  R1*12
  \inlineMMRNon
  R1*12
  R1*12
  \inlineMMRNoff
  R1*12
  \once\inlineMMRNon
  R1*12
  R1*12
}

Cheers,
Valentin
