Time signature[edit]

How do I actually get the time signature to properly appear when it’d otherwise wouldn’t? 2601:C6:D281:6710:C8A8:BCDF:36EE:6A13 (talk) 23:32, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why wouldn't it? It always appears unless it's suppressed: <score> c' </score> gives

But look at the Wikipedia page for the diminished triad (Diminished triad), the syntax gives:

${ \override Score.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f \relative c' { \clef treble \time 4/4 \key c \major <b d f>1 } }$

The time signature in that snippet doesn't appear because it's deliberately suppressed by \override Score.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 02:12, 1 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

indented first line and line break[edit]

In the following score, the line break on the first line is one beat too early and I can't see why. I was expecting to get something like this result.

Also the first line is indented; I would prefer it not to be.

Could anyone help with these issues? GoPlayerJuggler (talk) 17:06, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

LilyPond player vs .ogg files[edit]

A bug has been raised at phab:T363630 where playback of LilyPond scores fails (badly) if another sound file, usually .ogg, is on the same page. I'm not going to demonstrate the behaviour here, but it can be seen at Ragtime progression or Help talk:Score/Archive 1. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 01:19, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nice SVG score output[edit]

If you want nice SVG output, which actually works really nicely (I have it working on various instances of MediaWiki) then please make some noise on phab:T49578. It's ridiculous that this feature request is now eleven years old and I don't think anyone involved has any appreciation of how much of a difference it would make. The work has been done, it just needs to be deployed. — Jon (talk) 00:42, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
