Re: Jazz chords layout question

[Jacques Menu]

Hello Robin,

Thanks, the result is already better, with the seconda volta at the right place after adjusting the parameter of \pseudoIndent.

Didn’t find a way to hide the empty part of the staff to the left of it, stopStaff/startStaff didn’t help.

But I can use the score as is for my needs. I left the notes in the staff to help visualize what happens.

Thanks again!

JM

- how can I ‘push’ the beginning of the seconda volta to the middle of the line?

You could try a recent hack of mine.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% cheap alternative to \new Score;  fragile wrt. Y positioning
pseudoIndent =
#(define-music-function (parser location indent) (number?)
#{
  %    \once \override Score.BarNumber.X-offset = #(- indent 2)
  \once \override Score.LeftEdge.X-extent = #(cons 0 indent)
  \once \override Score.LeftEdge.Y-offset = 0
  \once \override Score.LeftEdge.stencil =
  #(lambda (grob) (stencil-whiteout-box
  (ly:make-stencil empty-stencil  (cons 0 indent) (cons -3 3))))
#})
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Apply at the line break  eg  \break \pseudoIndent #77



Cheers,
Robin
