Re: musicxml2ly chord names

[Silvain Dupertuis]

I could write an issue... but the webpage did recomment to write a message first

Here is a folder with an example
you will find the orignal MuseScore, with it’s PDF and mxl export
(mxl is just a compressed archive containing the xml file)
and the import into Lilypond plus PDF export

https://nextcloud.silvain-dupertuis.net/index.php/s/W5J8owidipexxTa

It is easy for me to correct the ~/lilypond/usr/bin/musicxml2ly file
(a text file)
But I thought it might be useful to others...

Moreover, it would be great to have a lily2musicxml conversion tool!

The xml code for the first note with a chord is like this

<measure number="2">
  <harmony print-frame="no">
    <root>
      <root-step>C</root-step>
      </root>
    <kind>major</kind>
    </harmony>
  <note>
    <pitch>
      <step>E</step>
      <octave>4</octave>
      </pitch>
    <duration>4</duration>
    <voice>1</voice>
    <type>half</type>
    <stem>up</stem>
    <lyric number="1">
      <syllabic>single</syllabic>
      <text>tu</text>
      </lyric>
    </note>
    ...
</measure>
