Nice! Seems simpler than QtSingleApplication. I may take a look as well.

Better Chord-Symbols

Reply Threaded More More options

In reply to this post by lasconic
Hello everyone.

I have been unsatisfied with the chord symbol rendering in musescore for
quite some time now, and I decided to make up my mind about how chord
symbols should look like.

http://www.njonjo.net/chordfonts/chordfonts.pdf

This document is what I came up with. It would make me (and every user
of musescore with a jazz background) very happy if this document helps
get the chord symbols usable in musescore!

As I also said in the document: I can develop symbols if there is any
need for it.

Thanks a lot,
Karl

Thanks for this info/research Kalle. Very interesting, and I look
forward to seeing how these concepts may be integrated in our favorite
notation app!

Re: Better Chord-Symbols

Thanks for the research indeed. Very interesting.
The most valuable information is the one about the layout I think.

Regarding the use of special character for maj7, half-diminished etc
... as you said it's a matter of taste and I think users need the
freedom to choose.
As you stated, you'll be satisfied with such symbols but other may
not. I'm pretty sure a lot of rock guitar players don't know about
Ctriangle but know Cmaj7.
I once proposed an implementation closed to the Finale one where there
is a chord library. You can choose from the library whant you want to
display for a given chords. If the preset does not suit your need you
can create new extensions. Moreover extensions are associated with a
chord decomposition. The decomposition is usable for playback, export
in midi or in musicXML. see :

I take another look to dbus and qt implementation. As far as I
understand, dbus can be used with a central server (bus daemon) or in
peer to peer.
To use it in musescore, cross platform, the daemon way is a dead end I guess ?
So I tried to figure out how the peer to peer one works. The qt dbus
examples all use the daemon approach ...
The winning class to do peer to peer seems to be :
http://doc.trolltech.com/4.5/qdbusserver.html
and as stated here http://marc.info/?l=freedesktop-dbus&m=121092641023133&w=2

"I can tell you about QtDBus: peer-to-peer is not implemented. The QDBusServer
class that is there is completely useless -- it's just a placeholder. You can
track it via this task:
http://trolltech.com/developer/task-tracker/index_html?id=126631&method=entry
"
I took a look to the bug tracker task. It has be postponed to 4.6 :-(
Do you have more insight info ? Is the bug tracker wrong? or is dbus a
dead end for the moment ?

I'm pretty sure the KDE on Windows project uses DBus centrally, and
[1] would have me believe that although the Windows port is not yet a
part of the reference implementation, it is still available. Of
course, using DBus like this would add another dependency to the list.

Ok, until we know more about this i implemented the qtsinglecoreapplication.
It works for linux and (cross)compiles for windows (not tested).

It compiles on windows and on ubuntu for windows. Unfortunately I
can't package on ubuntu... I will need to make the prerelease on
windows and I don't like it.
Regarding your changes, it works well on windows if you double click
on a file, and then another file. But if you open musescore once by
the menu and then double click a file, a second instance is created.

Re: Setting file associations for Windows

Lasconic,

I tried the uninstaller again today for r.1825. This time it seemed to
remove the file associations. The icons went back to the generic icon
and double-clicking on it give the typical "Windows cannot open this
file" dialog. However, the tooltip still says "Type: Compressed
MuseScore File".

I'm not sure why it didn't work for either of us last time. Have you
tried since?

I built the prerelease for r1833 on windows. It's available.
The uninstaller does not work for me on vista but there are so many
fixes and new features since r1770...
