Re: [NTG-context] Cannot run Lilypond
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 03 Jun '09

Thanks for the interest. I can run Lilypond from command line from any location. Also, I can run pstopdf, but the fact is that i didn't install GhostScript. But I'm not sure if it works, bacause when I run it it says nothing and exits. When I compile my Lily example, lily1-lilypond-1.tmp is created in both document dir and lilytemp subfolder. But lilypdfs remains empty. Best, Vyatccheslav

\setuppageshift and \setuparranging
by Nicolas Girard 03 Jun '09

03 Jun '09

Hi, I'm testing ConTeXt's imposition abilities on a cd booket project. I'd like pages to be shifted in order to compensate paper thickness. Running the following code leads to pages that are properly shifted ; but when uncommenting the line with \setuparranging, pages aren't shifted any longer. What's wrong with my code ? Thanks in advance, Nicolas \setuppapersize[CD][A4] \definepageshift[test][horizontal][10pt,20pt,30pt,40pt,50pt] \setuppageshift[test] \setuplayout[margin=5mm,marking=on,location=middle] %\setuparranging[2*2*4,rotated] \setuppageshift[test] \showframe \starttext \dorecurse{14}{\input tufte} \stoptext

Lilypond module problem
by Lutz Haseloff 03 Jun '09

03 Jun '09

Hi Mojca, Christopher, Hraban, Wolfgang, the new lilypond module don't build new lilypond pdf files when I change the tex input file. In the log i get: system : module lilypond loaded (c:/contextminimal/texmf-local/tex/context/third/lilypond/t-lilypond.texMTXrun | file './lilytemp/lily1-lilypond-1.tmp' is unchanged MTXrun | file './lilytemp/lily1-lilypond-1.eps' is unchanged loading : LilyPond module My testfile lily1.tex adopted and slightly changed from Vyatcheslav \usemodule[lilypond] \starttext There are some notes \lower 8.2pt\hbox{\lilypond[fragment=true]{\relative c' {c d e f}}} embedded in this line. \stoptext Perhaps this is a feature? Greetings Lutz

\setuphead[section] who do subsection inherit and how to set something just for sections?
by tristramg＠gmail.com 03 Jun '09

03 Jun '09

Hello, Sorry if you get this email twice. I tried posting while I wasn't yet member of the mailing list. I didn't find where I can get more informations about this issue: I want to change the apparance of a \section so I did: \setuphead[section][style=\bf] \starttext \section{foo} \subsection{bar} \stoptext However, subsection is also in bold. If y do textstyle instead of style, then subsection doesn't inherit the style. So I have two questions: – in which documentation is described what parameters are inherited or not? – how can I change the formating of a section without changing the subsection? Thanks a lot for your help. Regards Tristram

MKIV doesn't support units module?
by Zhichu Chen 03 Jun '09

03 Jun '09

Well, I shouldn't say the module units is not fully supported, but it won't give me what I want in MKIV. Those units it made are in italic shape but I really need them to be upright. I think I don't need to provide a test file, 'cause any files don't work for me. -- Best Regards Chen ---------------------------------------------------------------- Zhi-chu Chen | Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility No. 2019 | Jialuo Rd. | Jiading | Shanghai | P.R.

t-lilypond.tex calls invalid lilypond command-line option
by Richard Chonak 02 Jun '09

02 Jun '09

Greetings from a new user! When trying out lilypond from context for the first time yesterday, I found that t-lilypond.tex invokes lilypond with a command-line option "-b", which is not valid in lilypond 2.12. \def\LP{texmfstart --ifchanged=\lily!filename.tmp --exec bin:lilypond -b eps -dno-gs-load-fonts -dinclude-eps-fonts \lily!filename.tmp} To illustrate the problem: I was using the "Starlight" sample on http://wiki.contextgarden.net/LilyPond . Well, I wrapped the sample code in \starttext ... \stoptext . When I changed "-b eps" to "-dbackend=eps", lilypond executed successfully and I started getting proper results. (Though, please note, I had to delete the various temporary files produced in the unsuccessful attempts first.) Is this a known problem? Best wishes-- --Richard Chonak

(I know there's io.tmpfile, but that's not useful here.) This "wheel" is really simple, and I guess it's better anyway to be able to use a different directory for each module, so I don't mind if it's re-implemented. Greetlings from Lake Constance!
