ok here you go

Thanks.

I have added you as a contact on the 'Rietveld' site where most of the reviews are done. So you will see any comments mainly there. If you do get anything you need to fix you can give me a new patch and so on.

The Google tracker, can also be updated (I cannot add you to that though), and we use this website to keep track of ALL patches that are currently going through the review process.

hi there-
sorry for cross posting to all the lists, i'd rather not subscribe and
this post seems to apply to all three.

attached is a recorder diagram patch, would love for feedback and for
it to be incorporated.  hopefully it's ok it's not actually in patch
format, it just drops into display-woodwind-diagrams.scm (of course a
corresponding entry needs to be added to
woodwind-data-assembly-instructions in that file as well).
Can you make it patch format?

Then I can help push this through the proper review process. Although if
you do want to wait for people to comment (and I am not qualified to ...
sorry) then that is fine, but it will still need to be in patch format
in the end, it's up to you.

It's more likely to get more constructive reviews if it is a proper
patch though.

regards

James





my biggest problems:

- 1h (half-covered) works for eg 'flute two', but on my recorder thumb
(T) it doesn't work -- it just shows fully covered.

- why are partial covers shown as shaded, then there is no distinction
w/trills (ie 1h and 1hT are identical)?

i don't know scheme, so i was mainly pattern-matching from existing
diagrams.  some issues i had while trying to figure this out:

- what is the purpose of the baked-in cc/lh/rh grouping?

- i can't find doc for draw-instructions rules -- seems to determine
whether keys are hidden unless specified -- i didn't want that
behavior, but was stuck unexpectedly getting it for a while.

- difference between identity and return-1 -- they sound identical to
me (when xy-scaling), but gave different results.

- the style used encourages a lot of duplicated code -- it needs to be
refactored so that keys are defined as simple declarative structures
(with properties like name, group, position, complexity, stencil,
textual-representation) and graphical/textual-commands derived
therefrom.

- similarly, key positions should be described in relative terms --
most stuff is absolute w/brittle hardcoding.

- explicit support for when there is no text-override (key name
instead of graphical stencil) available.  i tripped across a
previously reported bug that doesn't seem to have made it to the issue
list even though it's a crash:
(http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2014-09/msg00405.html):

   c^
   \markup \override #'(graphical . #f) {
       \woodwind-diagram
         #'tin-whistle
         #'()
   }

C:/Program Files (x86)/LilyPond/usr/share/lilypond/current/scm/display-woodwind-
diagrams.scm:1977:20: In procedure = in expression (= 0 (assoc-get node draw-ins
tructions)):
C:/Program Files (x86)/LilyPond/usr/share/lilypond/current/scm/display-woodwind-
diagrams.scm:1977:20: Wrong type: #f

also broken for saxophone (a different error tho), but works for piccolo.
for tin-whistle, seems to be from use of CENTRAL-COLUMN-HOLE-H-LIST
instead of CENTRAL-COLUMN-HOLE-LIST.

- when using \override #'(graphical . #f) (is there a way to call this
"textual"?) with an empty keylist, should show all possible text
stencils (as it currently does for graphical).  also, how are partial
coverings/trills handled in this case?

- would be nice if i didn't have to edit display-woodwind-diagrams.scm
and instead could just \include my raw .scm file from a .ly file.

thanks!
