[Denemo-devel] Creating a Score Layout

[Joe Wilkinson]

Hi Richard,

I think I need to create multiple (3 different) score layouts on a score.

I have two youngsters playing Bb Clarinet and Eb Sax. What I would like to semi-automate is

From 7 staffs

1. Chords
2. Original music, with lyrics if needed
   
3. Copy of Original with notes edited for EbSax (but NOT printed)
   
4. music borrowed from Staff 3 transposed down a minor third
5. same as Staff 4 but a Chord Names Staff (this prints the notes names below 4
6. music borrowed from Staff 2 transposed up a major second
7. same as Staff 7 but a Chord Names Staff

Layout 1: Print all, i.e. 3 staffs

1. Original with chords & Lyrics,
2. Eb Sax with notes
3. Clarinet with notes
   

Layout 2: Print just for Sax, i.e

1. Original with chords & Lyrics,
2. Eb Sax with notes
   

Layout 3: Print just for clarinet

1. Original with chords & Lyrics,
2. Clarinet with notes

I think I should be able to create one set of music by

1. opening a Custom Template already set up
   
2. copying from an Original (with chords and lyrics if needed)
   
3. copying the Original into the hidden staff 3 and then editing any out of range notes.
   
4. reinitialising Staffs 4,5,6,7 so the borrowed music has time signature & key signature correct

Then go to Typeset Page and typeset & pdf the 3 layouts above

But I can't see how to create named layouts.

Best wishes

Joe
