-Lilypond now helps beams avoid collisions with other grobs! This feature
-works completely with manual beams. It also works for all automatic beams
-that do not end right before a change in staff. For this special case, please
-use manual beams.
-
-@item
-The Articulate script by Peter Chubb, which is GPLv3 licensed, is now
-a part of the distribution. It allows easy generation of improved
-MIDI files that perform non-legato by default, legato slurs, staccato,
-tempo markings, trills, etc.
-
-@example
-\include "articulate.ly"
-\articulate <<
- all the rest of the score...
->>

@item
-Single beat repeats for sixteenth or shorter notes and beat repeats for
-measures containing notes of varying durations are now supported.

+A new flexible template suitable for a range of choral music, is now
+provided. This may be used to create simple choral music, with or
+without piano accompaniment, in two or four staves. Unlike other
+templates, this template is @q{built-in}, which means it does not
+need to be copied and edited: instead it is simply @code{\include}'d
+in the input file. For details, see @rlearning{Built-in templates}.
+
+@item
+The positioning of tuplet numbers for kneed beams has been significantly
+improved. Previously, tuplet numbers were placed according to the
+position of the tuplet bracket, even if it was not printed. This could
+lead to stranded tuplet numbers. Now they are now positioned
+closer to the kneed-beam when an appropriate beam segment exists for its
+placement and when the the bracket is not drawn.
+
+Collision detection is also added, offsetting horizontally if too close
+to an adjoining note column but preserving the number's vertical
+distance from the kneed beam. If the number itself is too large to
+fit in the available space the original, bracket-based, positioning
+system is used instead; and in the event of a collision (e.g. with an
+accidental) the tuplet number is moved vertically away instead.

-@item
-MIDI output has been improved
-@itemize @bullet
-@item the option @code{\set Score.midiChannelMapping = #'voice} puts each voice on its own midi MIDI channel
-@item the option @code{\set Score.midiChannelMapping = #'instrument} puts identical instruments on the same MIDI channel. This means that e.g. for a full orchestral score there are always 16 (15 plus percussion) differently sounding instruments available, unrestricted by the number of staves or voices. (Some MIDI players will cut off notes, however, if two voices play the same pitch simultaneously on the same channel.) This option also stores each voice in a separate track in the MIDI file.
-@item the default, @code{\set Score.midiChannelMapping = #'staff}, assigns one MIDI channel per staff. This setting allows instrument changes (implemented as MIDI program changes) to re-use single MIDI channel.
-@item dynamics are now rendered as note velocities, no longer as midi volume. This improves the sound on [high end] midi renderers.
-@end itemize
+@noindent
+The original kneed-beam tuplet behavior is still available through an
+@code{\override} via a new, @code{knee-to-beam} property.
-@item
-MIDI-import through Midi2ly is improved
-@itemize @bullet
-@item Midi2ly now also works on Windows systems
-@item MIDI-files with more than 32 tracks are now handled
-@item notes on certain simultaneous voices no longer ignored
-@item notes overrunning a bar line are no longer truncated
-@item initial key signature and time signature are respected
-@item a problem with octaves in subsequent tracks/voices is fixed
-@item initial support for multiple voices notated on one staff
-@item the instrumentName is set from track data
-@item new --skip option, rests are displayed by default
-@item rests overrunning a bar line are not truncated
-@item new --include-header option for setting titles
-@item new --preview option for big MIDI-files
-@end itemize
-The first feature was sponsored by Valentin Villenave,
-the other features were sponsored by Image-Line Software for FL Studio.
-
-@item
-A new @code{Completion_rest_engraver} is available for automatically
-converting long rests which overrun bar lines, matching the
-@code{Completion_heads_engraver} for notes
-@example
-\layout @{
- \context @{
- \Voice
- \remove "Note_heads_engraver"
- \consists "Completion_heads_engraver"
- \remove "Rest_engraver"
- \consists "Completion_rest_engraver"

-Dots can be added to the table of contents items using:
-@example
-\paper @{
- tocItemMarkup = \tocItemWithDotsMarkup
-@}
-@end example
-
-@item
-New markup commands @code{\pattern} and @code{\fill-with-pattern} are available.
-@lilypond
-\markup \column {

-@item
-Added minimal support for black mensural notation.
+@code{\lyricsto} and @code{\addLyrics} have been @q{harmonized}. Both
+now accept the same kind of delimited argument list that @code{\lyrics}
+and @code{\chords} accept. Backward compatibility has been added so
+music identifiers (i.e. @code{\mus}) are permitted as arguments. A
+@code{convert-ly} rule has been added that removes redundant uses of
+@code{\lyricmode} and rearranges combinations with context starters such
+that @code{\lyricsto} in general is applied last (i.e. like
+@code{\lyricmode} would be).
@item
-Enhanced support for obliqua shapes within white mensural ligatures.

-@end lilypond
+Scheme functions and identifiers can now be used as output definitions.
@item
-New markup functions @code{\with-link} and @code{\page-link} that add
-hyperlinks to a given label or a given page number. This works in the PDF
-backend only. All entries to the table of contents now automatically add
-hyperlinks to the pages they are referring to.
+Scheme expressions can now be used as chord constituents.
@item
-Compound time signatures are now supported by the @code{\compoundMeter} command,
-which can be used instead of @code{\time}:
-
-@lilypond
-\relative c'' {
- \compoundMeter #'(3 1 8)
- c8 c c c
- \compoundMeter #'((2 8) (5 8))
- c8 c c c c c c
- \compoundMeter #'((1 2 3 8) (1 4) (3 8))
- c8 c c c c c c4 c8 c c
-}
-@end lilypond
+Improved visual spacing of small and regular @q{MI} Funk and Walker
+noteheads so they are now the same width as other shaped notes in
+their respective sets. @code{SOL} noteheads are also now visually
+improved when used with both the normal Aiken and Sacred Harp heads, as
+well as with the thin variants.
@item
-Lyrics above a staff must have their @code{staff-affinity} set to
-@code{DOWN} or must have their @code{alignAboveContext} property
-set in order to be properly aligned. For more information, see
-@ruser{Placing lyrics vertically}.
+@code{LeftEdge} now has a definable @code{Y-extent} (i.e.vertical). See
+@rinternals{LeftEdge}.
@item
-@code{stringTunings} property values have changed from a list of
-semitones above middle C to a list of LilyPond pitch values.
-convert-ly will handle the change automatically where the value
-of @code{stringTunings} is set to a Scheme constant value.
-
-New commands @code{makeStringTuning} and @code{contextStringTuning}
-allow the creation of string tunings in the form of a Lilypond
-chord construct.
-
-@item
-By using @code{\cueDuringWithClef}, cue notes can now also have their own
-clef, which is correctly reset at the end of the cue notes. At the begin
-of each line, the standard clef is still displayed, but the cue clef is
-shown after the time/key signature in smaller size.
-
-@lilypond
-vI = \relative c'' { \clef "treble" \repeat unfold 40 g4 }
-\addQuote vIQuote { \vI }

- \cueDuringWithClef #"vIQuote" #DOWN "soprano" { R1*2 \break R1 } |
- c1
-}
+Added a new @code{make-path-stencil} function that supports all
+@code{path} commands both relative and absolute:
-\score {
- <<
- \new Staff \new Voice \Solo
- >>
-}
-@end lilypond
+@code{lineto}, @code{rlineto}, @code{curveto}, @code{rcurveto},
+@code{moveto}, @code{rmoveto}, @code{closepath}. The function also
+supports @q{single-letter} syntax used in standard SVG path commands:
+@code{L}, @code{l}, @code{C}, @code{c}, @code{M}, @code{m}, @code{Z} and
+@code{z}. The new command is also backward-compatible with the original
+@code{make-connected-path-stencil} function. Also see
+@file{scm/stencil.scm}.
@item
-Note names can be selected with a new
-@code{@bs{}language "italiano"} command, which
-can be used in safe mode. The old
-@code{@bs{}include "italiano.ly"} syntax is
-still supported for now, but will be deprecated
-in the future.
+Context properties named in the @samp{alternativeRestores} property are
+restored to their value at the start of the @emph{first} alternative in
+all subsequent alternatives.
-@item
-autobeaming is now disabled by @code{\cadenzaOn} and enabled by
-@code{\cadenzaOff}. Beaming in cadenzas should be indicated manually.
-Also, if a cadenza is used in a piece with autobeaming disabled, it
-will need to be disabled again after the cadenza.
-
-@item
-The user is now able to specify the name of the predefined fretboard
-table. This allows the use of multiple tables, with switching between them
-based on user input.
+Currently the default set restores @q{current meter};
-@item
-The part-combiner's decision to combine/not combine notes can now be customized
-
-@lilypond[quote,relative=2]
-\partcombine

@end lilypond
-@item
-Tablature staves show fret numbers only by default. To get the
-former style, @code{\tabFullNotation} is provided.
-
-@item
-Funk-style and Walker-style shape notes have been added.
-
-@item
-Rests will no longer keep a staff alive if @code{\RemoveEmptyStaffContext}
-is used.
-
-@item
-New option @code{-dinclude-settings=INCLUDEFILE.ly}, which causes lilypond
-to include the given file before the score is processed. This allows the
-user to change global settings without the need to change the score itself.
-That way, several different editions/version (e.g. different page sizes)
-can be generated from a file without having to modify the score for each
-version.
-
-@item
-The autobeaming settings syntax has been changed. beatLength,
-beatGrouping, beamSettings, and measureGrouping have all been eliminated.
-Autobeaming is now controlled by baseMoment, beatStructure, and
-beamExceptions. Default settings for each of these properties can be
-stored for any time signature in time-signature-settings, so that
-when the time signature is changed, the autobeaming will automatically
-change. The new syntax should be much easier and require fewer
-overrides.
+@noindent
+@q{measure position};
-@item
-The SVG backend has optional support for
-@uref{http://www.w3.org/Submission/WOFF, WOFF fonts}. Using the Scheme
-option @code{-d svg-woff} together with the SVG backend selection
-@code{-d backend=svg}, produces SVG output with CSS WOFF font selection.
-
-@item
-The LilyPond G clef has been rotated 1.5 degrees clockwise for improved
-balance. The old and new versions can be compared by looking at the
-documentation:
-@uref{http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/The-Feta-font.html#Clef-glyphs,
-old version},

+and @q{chord changes};
-@item
-The documented syntax of @samp{lilypond} environments in the @LaTeX{}
-mode of @command{lilypond-book} has been changed to conform with
-standard @LaTeX{} syntax: options now come after the environment name:
-@example
-\begin@{lilypond@}[@var{options}] @dots{}
-@end example
-
-The previous syntax with options after @samp{\begin} is still accepted
-by @command{lilypond-book} but deprecated. Something like
-@example
-sed -i '/begin\[/s/begin\(\[[^]]*]\)\(@{lilypond@}\)/begin\2\1/'
-@end example
-
-might do the trick for conversion.
-
-@item
-Aesthetics of shape note heads have been enhanced. Variable line thicknesses
-have been implemented. All note widths have been made consistent.
-Minor shape note commands that use the relative major key for scale steps
-have been added.
-
-@item
-A variant of the Segno sign is provided:
-@lilypond[quote,relative=2]
-c4 d e f \bar "S"

@end lilypond
@item
-A half-open articulation was added:
-@lilypond[quote,relative=2]
-c4\halfopen
-@end lilypond
-This is sometimes used to indicate half-open hi-hats.
+Improved MIDI output for breathe marks. After tied notes, breaths take
+time @emph{only} from the last note of the tie; e.g.
+@code{@{ c4~ c8 \breathe @}} performs as @code{@{ c4~ c16 r @}} instead
+of @code{@{ c4 r8 @}}. This is more consistent with articulations and
+how humans interpret breaths after ties. It now also makes it easier to
+align simultaneous breathe marks over multiple parts, all with different
+note lengths.
@item
-The Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm is now fully supported for
-single-line markup due to enhanced integration with Pango.
+A new note head style for Tabulature has been added;
+@code{TabNoteHead.style = #'slash}.
@item
-LilyPond is now licensed under the GNU GPL v3+.
+Four new Clefs have been added. @emph{Double G}, @emph{Tenor G},

-Chords can be repeated using the @code{q} shortcut:
+Isolated durations in music sequences now stand for unpitched
+notes. This may be useful for specifying rhythms to music or
+scheme functions. When encountered in the final score, the
+pitches are provided by the preceding note or chord. Here are two
+examples where this makes for readable input:
-@lilypond[verbatim,quote,relative=2]

-Intermediate .ps files which are created by LilyPond
-during compilation are now deleted by default. To keep them,
-add the following line to your input files:
+@noindent
+with multiple exceptions separated with @code{|} bar checks
+(writing the exception pattern without pitches is convenient but
+not mandatory). Previously, setting the beam exceptions would
+have required writing

@example
-#(ly:set-option 'delete-intermediate-files #f)
+\set Timing.beamExceptions =
+#'( ;start of alist
+ (end . ;entry for end of beams

-\slurDotted
-g4( f e d) |
-\slurHalfDashed
-c4( d e f)
-@end lilypond
+The most common articulations are now reflected in MIDI output.
+Accent and marcato make notes louder; staccato, staccatissimo and
+portato make them shorter. Breath marks shorten the previous
+note.
-@item
-An eyeglasses markup was added, indicating strongly to look at the
-conductor for instructions:
-@lilypond[quote,relative=2]
-\mark \markup { \eyeglasses }
-c4_\markup { \eyeglasses }
-@end lilypond
+This behavior is customizable through the @code{midiLength} and
+@code{midiExtraVelocity} properties on @code{ArticulationEvent}.
+See @file{script-init.ly} for examples.
@item
-A snap-pizzicato (also known as Bartok-pizzicato) articulation was added:
-@lilypond[quote,relative=2]
-c4\snappizzicato
-@end lilypond
+The PostScript functionality of stroke adjustment is no longer
+applied automatically but left to the discretion of the PostScript
+device (by default, Ghostscript uses it for resolutions up to
+150dpi when generating raster images). When it is enabled, a more
+complex drawing algorithm designed to benefit from stroke
+adjustment is employed mostly for stems and bar lines.
-@item
-Tuplet number formatting functions are now available to print other fractions
-and to add notes to the number or fraction:
-@lilypond[quote,relative=2]
-\once \override TupletNumber #'text =
- #(tuplet-number::non-default-tuplet-denominator-text 7)
-\times 2/3 { c4. c4. c4. c4. }
-
-\once \override TupletNumber #'text =
- #(tuplet-number::non-default-tuplet-fraction-text 12 7)
-\times 2/3 { c4. c4. c4. c4. }
-\once \override TupletNumber #'text =
- #(tuplet-number::append-note-wrapper
- (tuplet-number::non-default-tuplet-fraction-text 12 7) "8")
-\times 2/3 { c4. c4. c4. c4. }
-
-\once \override TupletNumber #'text =
- #(tuplet-number::append-note-wrapper tuplet-number::calc-denominator-text "4")
-\times 2/3 { c8 c8 c8 c8 c8 c8 }
-\once \override TupletNumber #'text =
- #(tuplet-number::append-note-wrapper tuplet-number::calc-fraction-text "4")
-\times 2/3 { c8 c8 c8 c8 c8 c8 }
-
-\once \override TupletNumber #'text =
- #(tuplet-number::fraction-with-notes "4." "8")
-\times 2/3 { c4. c4. c4. c4. }
-\once \override TupletNumber #'text =
- #(tuplet-number::non-default-fraction-with-notes 12 "8" 4 "4")
-\times 2/3 { c4. c4. c4. c4. }

-FretBoards now have a chordChanges property to keep repeated FretBoard objects
-from being typeset.

-The vertical spacing engine has been drastically changed, making
-it more flexible and easier to control.
-The spacing between staves within a system can now change
-to better use the space on the page.
-User-defined contexts may participate in this flexible spacing,
-depending on how their @code{staff-affinity} is defined.
-Some page formatting variables (@code{page-top-space},
-@code{between-system-space -padding}, and
-@code{before- between- after-title-space}) have been replaced
-by flexible vertical dimensions.
+Stroke adjustment can be forced by specifying the command line
+option @samp{-dstrokeadjust} to LilyPond. When generating
+@code{PDF} files, this will usually result in markedly better
+looking @code{PDF} previews but significantly larger file size.
+Print quality at high resolutions will be unaffected.
