Hi all,

Frescobaldi 0.7.8 has been released. Main new features:
- Smart point and click: URLs remain working even if the document changes
without re-running LilyPond
- New, complete Polish translation by Piotr Komorowski
- Option to only show the log if LilyPond gives errors or warnings
- Progress bar

Frescobaldi is a LilyPond music score editor for KDE4 (you can run it on any
platform, but you need kdelibs, kdebase, okular from kdegraphics for the PDF
preview and pykde4 from kdebindings).

enjoy,
Wilbert Berendsen

For Ubuntu users: Frescobaldi 0.7.8 has been posted to the Frescobaldi PPA:

https://launchpad.net/~frescobaldi/+archive/ppa

The build of the Intrepid packages has completed. The Jaunty builds will
have to wait until some package conflicts in the Jaunty repositories are
resolved.

If you added my PPA (csnyder) in the past, please switch over to the
Frescobaldi PPA.

Thanks,

-Chris

Thanks! Anthony Mercatante told me that Frescobaldi was a tiny little bit too
late to be an official part of Jaunty, so your PPA will continue to be useful
for many people; many thanks again!

I really like Frescobaldi. It makes working on LilyPond scores much more
fun. Good work !

I have a question.
I'm working on a score that I have split into a music.ly file with only
the notes and a score.ly with all the score layout stuff.

The score.ly has

\include "music.ly"

The music.ly ends with a comment/command to point Frescobaldi to the
correct file for running LilyPond

%%master: score.ly

If I load music.ly in Frescobaldi, I can now preview my work in the PDF
viewer. Good.

My score.ly produces more files: Some different parts and midi are
generated when running LilyPond.
But if if go the LilyPond-->Generated Files menu ... It is empty!

Is it possible to fix this ? Shouldn't Frescobaldi now and show what
files are generated by the file that is specified with the %%master
command/comment ?

If I load the score.ly masterfile in Frescobaldi and run LilyPond I can
see the results in the Generated Files menu. But that's not what I need.

The menu always shows the documents with the same basename as the current
document. These menu options are always shown if the files they refer to exist
and are newer than the source document.

The action buttons below the LilyPond Log (that appear after a LilyPond run)
show the documents that resulted of the *job* that has run (i.e. obeys the
%%master: special comments)

The action buttons also warn you when you want to e.g. e-mail a PDF with
point-and-click links in it: those PDF's are much larger. The "Generated
files" menu doesn't know how the PDF was generated.

This can be a bit confusing and should probably change! :-)

No Hardy package?
