Neume dimensions

[Andrew Hinkley]

Hello all,

I've rewritten the gprocess script in Python and added some CLI options. One of the options checks for high notes (k,l,m) and based on the highest note pushes up the entire NABC using \grechangedim{abovelinestextraise}{0.2 cm}{scalable} to avoid collisions with GABC notes. I'm also using \grechangedim{abovelinestextheight}{1.0 cm}{scalable} to add some space above the NABC.

Could someone please tell me the dimensions of the square notes are and NABC neumes so I can fine tune the above dimensions?

Thank you,

Andrew.

The dimensions will vary based on which glyph you’re looking at. You can look into the sfd files to see what the dimensions of the various glyph components are, but I think that such a theoretical answer is unlikely to be satisfactory in the long term.

I think you’re best bet would be to create a sample score and use trial and error with a bisecting algorithm to fine tune the numbers manually.
