Hi all,
as far as I understand, all problems with incipits boil down to the
following two major issues:
(1) horizontal spacing, and
(2) the system start delimiter.
Karl's solution unfortunately leaves horizontal space between the incipit
and the actual score; hence it does *not* solve issue (2). Rather, the
score lines should not stop inbetween.
IMHO, all other features have been quite well demonstrated in template
A.5.1 for a while now. Hence, you probably should concentrate on solving
these two remaining issues.
Regarding issue (2), maybe the "right" solution is to extend the system
start delimiter implementation in such a way, that
(a) automatic printing at the system start may be suppressed for a
specific range of the score with kind of
"\turnSystemStartDelimiterOff" and "\turnSystemStartDelimiterOn"
commands, and
(b) a kind of "\bar #'system-start-delimiter" command prints an
additional system start delimiter whereever you want. (But if this
bar should happen to appear at the system start, the delimiter
should not be printed twice.)
Regarding issue (1), I am not sure what the "right" solution is. Please
note that the note durations in the incipit are typically much larger than
in the actually score. Karl and Nicolas, did you check what happens with
the horizontal spacing in your incipit solutions, if you double or
quadruple the note durations in the incipit (and only there)? In your
examples, in the incipts you are unfortunately using the same durations as
in the actual score. I may be wrong, but I suspect that your solutions do
*not* solve issue (1).
IIRC, the spacing engine maintains a variable that keeps track of shortest
available duration in a peace in computes the ideal distance of larger
note values in a logarithmic scale based on the shortest duration. Maybe
this computation needs to be changed for the incipit (and only there!) to
get tighter spacing in the incipit.
Greetings,
Juergen
