36 @top New features in 2.13 since 2.12
39 This document is also available in @uref{changes.pdf,PDF}. It is part of
40 the @uref{lilypond/Manuals.html,LilyPond Documentation}.
52 * only show verbatim input for syntax/input changes
54 * try to be as brief possible in those cases
56 * don't try to provide real-world examples, they often get too big,
57 which scares away people.
59 * Write complete sentences.
61 * only show user-visible changes.
66 Braces in markup can now be selected by point size using the markup commands
67 @code{\left-brace} and @code{\right-brace}.
77 Intermediate .ps files which are created by LilyPond
78 during compilation are now deleted by default. To keep them,
79 add the following line to your input files:
81 #(ly:set-option 'delete-intermediate-files #f)
85 Dashed and dotted slurs, phrasing slurs, and ties
86 have been made variable thickness, and
87 partially dashed slurs are now available:
88 @lilypond[quote,relative=2]
98 An eyeglasses markup was added, incidating strongly to look at the
99 conductor for instructions:
100 @lilypond[quote,relative=2]
101 \mark \markup { \eyeglasses }
102 c4_\markup{ \eyeglasses }
106 A snap-pizzicato (also known as Bartok-pizzicato) articulation was added:
107 @lilypond[quote,relative=2]
112 Tuplet number formatting functions are now available to print other fractions
113 and to add notes to the number or fraction:
114 @lilypond[quote,relative=2]
115 \once \override TupletNumber #'text =
116 #(tuplet-number::non-default-tuplet-denominator-text 7)
117 \times 2/3 { c4. c4. c4. c4. }
119 \once \override TupletNumber #'text =
120 #(tuplet-number::non-default-tuplet-fraction-text 12 7)
121 \times 2/3 { c4. c4. c4. c4. }
122 \once \override TupletNumber #'text =
123 #(tuplet-number::append-note-wrapper
124 (tuplet-number::non-default-tuplet-fraction-text 12 7) "8")
125 \times 2/3 { c4. c4. c4. c4. }
127 \once \override TupletNumber #'text =
128 #(tuplet-number::append-note-wrapper tuplet-number::calc-denominator-text "4")
129 \times 2/3 { c8 c8 c8 c8 c8 c8 }
130 \once \override TupletNumber #'text =
131 #(tuplet-number::append-note-wrapper tuplet-number::calc-fraction-text "4")
132 \times 2/3 { c8 c8 c8 c8 c8 c8 }
134 \once \override TupletNumber #'text =
135 #(tuplet-number::fraction-with-notes "4." "8")
136 \times 2/3 { c4. c4. c4. c4. }
137 \once \override TupletNumber #'text =
138 #(tuplet-number::non-default-fraction-with-notes 12 "8" 4 "4")
139 \times 2/3 { c4. c4. c4. c4. }
143 FretBoards now have a chordChanges property to keep repeated FretBoard objects
