Size
Is there a way to control the size of the score? Generally, I think it's too big by at least 30%. Compare Alle Jahre wieder in this version using {{MusicScore}} with this version using <score>, or Ihr Kinderlein, kommet similarly before and after. I had a look at the documentation, but couldn't get any of the commands to reduce horizontal spacing to work and I didn't find anything about scaling the output as a whole. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 08:30, 27 April 2013 (UTC)
- Seconded. Of course there is Lilypond syntax to change the output size, but the default size is somewhat large to my taste.--KlausFoehl (talk) 12:23, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
- I would be grateful if you could produce an example in smaller size; this would be useful for the incipits at 42 études ou caprices and probably in a lot of other articles. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 12:38, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
<score> #(set-global-staff-size 14) { \clef bass c8 c c c c c c c } </score>
- That usually works, but not here - maybe due to security reasons?? (submitted as question at mediawiki) --KlausFoehl (talk) 18:56, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
Right "a"
- How do I get the "second" a, if I write:
<score>
\relative c' { a }
</score>
I get this:
![\relative c' { a }](http://upload.wikimedia.org/score/i/2/i24t1mi80c6f0dkv4b7bglykjvzj3dm/i24t1mi8.png)
But if I write:
<score>
\relative c' { f a }
</score>
I get (its this a I want to have at the beginning):
![\relative c' { f a }](http://upload.wikimedia.org/score/0/a/0a08s62ie8l17vbchsutj2jkr47zuv5/0a08s62i.png)

- You could either specify the explicit octave for a' or change the relative anchor:
<score>{ a' }</score>
givesand<score>\relative f' { a }</score>
gives also. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 11:51, 27 April 2013 (UTC)
Formatting the examples
This looks great, but the current format for showing the markup in the examples doesn't really work. You're using some special tag, and it breaks the pagewrapping and also doesn't clearly show use of ' (because they get treated as marking italics and bolding). It would be clearer to use the plain <nowiki> tags around it.
Is there a good reason why the special tags were being used instead? 86.161.209.128 (talk) 19:55, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
- I just took the use of the template {{tag}} as I found it on the page. I think it displays almost all wikicode properly, except the pipe character. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 03:15, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
- But it messed up the multiple apostrophes, interpreting them as italics. -- Ypnypn (talk) 03:23, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
- You're right, I see it now. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 03:31, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

- That's much better. But what's the advantage of using the tag template, rather than nowiki? What does it do? If you use nowiki, you'd just write out exactly what coding you use, and it displays it exactly (so you wouldn't need the pipe work-arounds). Is breaking the pagewrapping an advantage? 86.161.209.128 (talk) 06:40, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
- Give me a bit and I will do a vertical version of {{markup}}. -- Gadget850 talk 09:39, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

Verses and stanzas, ties and slurs, and other great info
Verses and stanzas
If I type:
<score>\relative c' { f2 e4 c } \addlyrics { \set stanza = #"1. " If I could... } \addlyrics { \set stanza = #"2. " What a shame... }</score>
I get:
![\relative c' { f2 e4 c } \addlyrics { \set stanza = #"1. " If I could... } \addlyrics { \set stanza = #"2. " What a shame... }](http://upload.wikimedia.org/score/6/a/6argdm08eyxmwuouiadscn5g7s0jh01/6argdm08.png)
Ties and slurs

Notes
†"I don't understand how ties work!" Yes, there really is a problem, but I might be fixing it – with adding the same note afterwards.
