Displaying note with new pitch

$
0
0

Hi,

I'm working on converting the minorvariations plugin to the new API and I want to do this

note.pitch++;

and have the note redrawn with its new accidental. When I add one to the pitch, nothing happens in the score. Changing the colour results in an immediate change of colour, but changing the pitch does nothing. How do I get the note to redraw?

thanks
Samantha


(ab)using chord symbol entry

$
0
0

I would like to ask anybody who may know a question about the content of chord symbols.

A bit of background: I have written a plugin that generates correctly voiced guitar parts from text added to the chord symbol. To do this, two more pieces of information are required in addition to the chord symbol. These are a pattern identifier, and a chord type.

Currently I am using commas to delimit the data within the chord symbol as:
chord,patternId,chordtypeId

The benefit of using the chord symbol field is that, even with odd names and extra data entered, the chord root is transposed with the score, from which the plugin calculates the required position to play a chord.

What I obviously want to avoid is to cause problems with a score in way that I can't foresee by encouraging users to add this information. I've been using it myself for a couple of weeks and have seen no ill effects, but I probably only use 30% of musescores capability.

I would not anticipate the staff with these symbols would be printed.

Could anybody give me an indication of potential problems that this may cause.

Thanks in advance

Dear all,

sorry for the greenhorn question, but I would like to know how to use plugins.
I found in the manual how to enable the preinstalled plugins e.g. colornotes.

I have selected a few notes, but how can I apply the plugin to the selected score?

Sorry again.

How do I use ABC import?

Hi,
We've developed a little app that helps children compose a short 8 bar melody.

Now I am looking to export the composition in ABC format and then import it into MuseScore so that I can take a screenshot of the composition and post in on my website.

I know how to export it but I don't know HOW TO open the data in MuseScore.
Does anyone use the ABC format? If yes, please tell me the steps. Thank you!

The image shows an actual screenshot of the app and what a composition would look like.

Plugin coding tutorial?

Is there any tutorial for how to create a musescore2 plugin?

Am I to understand that for the most part we an do whatever is possible with QT QML, and then the musescore specific API gets us access to data objects in the score?

What are the basic requirements of a MS2 plugin within the wider QML capability...?

Hi all,

I suppose this question has already been asked but I have not found the answer.

When I use the Add Names Notehead plugin, I would like the note names appears on the noteheads.

I change the settings but the name of the notes are always below the notes and it is tedious to put everything back by hand.

I think I'm doing it wrong with this plugin, can anyone help me please?

Thank you

Fingering position plugin update

Hi, I just wanted to share a new version of my fingering positioner plugin. This plugin moves fingering elements above/below the staves, avoiding notes and other fingering elements. I find it particularly helpful for piano music.

You can download it here: https://musescore.org/en/project/fixfingering

Feedback much appreciated!


Add comments to a score (Changelog, notes etc...)

$

Last weekend I sat down with a french music teacher, composer, and MuseScore user @skunt. He asked me if it would be possible to have a dialog where he could write some text notes. He would use this dialog to write down the current state of the score, TODOs, things to be worked on. With his students, he would use it to add some comments about the state of learning process of the piece etc...

So I wrote a plugin: https://musescore.org/en/project/scorecomments

Once installed and activate, go to Plugins > Comments and a dialog will pop up. Enter some text, save your score, and next time you open it, this dialog will show the same text.

QUESTION RELATED TO ALTERNATIVE SCALES
I would like to develp a plugin for the golden scale of 34 tones. One of the problems is that step intervals are not constant. For example between C and C# there are three notes in between, but between D and D# there are 4 notes, and between C# and D there are only two notes. Cents, are not constant (there are 10 different possibilities.
Any help.?

How to set the duration of a rest?

$

I started to write a plugin to autogenerate simple scores in MuseScore 2.x. I can't find a way to add rests with a specific duration.

Does anyone know how to:
a) Split a rest in two or more rests or
b) Replace a given chord by a rest with the same duration

I kinda managed to create a new Rest object, but adding it to the score without a duration is not possible. So i might have to add a Fraction object to the rests duration. But i can't manage to initiate or copy a Fraction object.

Spreading selected notes evenly

$
0
0

I want to build a plugin which would spread selected notes evenly in duration keeping their original pitches.

If I select 4 notes this plugin should spread selected notes on 4 parts of equal duration (regardless of their original durations). For example if I select the following four notes: eighth-note (A) + eighth-note (B) + quarter-note (C) + half-note (D). They together have duration of 4 quarter-notes and this should be divided by plugin into 4 quarter-notes keeping original note's pitches (A,B,C,D). Ok, this is very simple example.

If I select 3 notes (sincope in this case) this plugin should spread selected notes on 3 parts of equal duration (that's triplet now). For example if I select there three notes: eighth-note (A) + quarter-note (B) + eighth-note (C). They together have duration of 2 quarter-notes and this should be divided into 3 quarter-notes keeping original note's pitches (A,B,C). This i still simple example.

However, if one makes a selection of 5 notes with duration of 7-eighth-notes this is more complex but not needed so much in praxis and it is not important if this plugin does not support these complex cases. Similar thing is if selection includes rests.

So general rule is: split selected duration evenly on number of selected notes:

I started to build such a plugin but I'm newbie in MuseScore plugin programming and need help with this:

Here is my starting code targeting selected notes:

import QtQuick 2.0
import MuseScore 1.0

MuseScore
{
  menuPath: "Plugins.pluginName"
  onRun:
  {
   var c=curScore.newCursor();

    c.rewind(2);//gotoSelectionEnd
    var endTick=c.tick;
    c.rewind(1);//gotoSelectionStart
    var startTick=c.tick;

    var selDuration=endTick-startTick;

    console.log("selection duration="+selDuration);

    var e=0;
    while(c.tick

notenames plugin

$
0
0

I'm trying to adjust the position of the notenames in Musescore and it seems I have to do so for every note name. Is there a way to select all the notenames and reposition them all at once? For some reason the plugin is placing the notenames almost directly on top of the notes themselves, making it very difficult to read. I'd like to be able to adjust the offset in one fell swoop rather than one name at a time. I've already tried selecting all in the staff and adjusting the text properties offset position, but it only does it for one name, even when all names are selected.
Thanks in advance for any help!

ABC import plugin not available

$

I have just installed Musescore 2.0.2 on a new computer, running Xubuntu 16.04. I would like to import some ABC notation, as I have done many times before. However, I cannot get the plugin to activate.

I go to Plugins -> Plugin Manager, tick the box beside "abc_import", choose "OK" and the plugin fails to appear under the plugins menu, even after a restart - which keeps abc_import ticked. I've tried all the other included plugins and they show up fine. I've tried assigning a shortcut to abc_import and that didn't do anything either.

I have checked that the /usr/share/musescore2.0/plugins/abc_import.qml is there, and I can view it with Plugin Creator. I just can't get it to show up on the list of active plugins.

Help!

Loading Sound Samples from Kurzweil PC3 LE7 and Kontakt into MuseScore 2.0

Hey guys, I'm new here. I'm going to buy a Macbook Air soon. I have a Kurzweil PC3 LE7 syntheziser which I'm going to connect to my Macbook Air not only as a MIDI keyboard, but also I would like to load some programmed and modulated sound samples from my Kurzweil PC3 LE7 into my GarageBand so I can use them and play them in the tracks I'll be composing. So is it possible to load the sound samples straight from my Kurzweil PC3 LE7 into the GarageBand? Or do I need to some other external software to do so?

Also, is it possible to use sounds from the sample libraries below and load them into MuseScore 2.0?:
