Just wondered if anyone has a working solution to creating Lutoslawski-style box repeats such as this one: https://goo.gl/images/TYKdWt

I couldn't find a complete solution in either the LSR or mailing list archives. If not, I'll start putting together something probably based on the frame module from https://github.com/openlilylib/analysis, but any tips would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mark


Hi Mark,

For a long while I was using the frameengraver21 but I remember encountering a bug and never being able to move past it since. I'm not sure what is available recently, but I am curious as well :) I would use it quite often if there was a boxed notation module.

The solution to this error has come up several times on the list.
Searching "must be type `list'" returns

You can also find the FrameEngraver code in that thread.

Best,
David


Thank you David! Not sure how I missed that...

Easy enough--the archives are not a good place to version-control
code!  I think I finally need to put this stuff up on GitHub so
there's an easy place to find the "latest" version (which I will need
search the list archives to discover...)

David,

Here are the files I am working with - I tried to make the change but still no dice. When you get a minute, could you take a look and tell me what is wrong with these files? As of now, I cannot even run frameEngraver25 it flat out crashes LilyPond every time. frameEngraver21 doesn't crash but does have those list-return errors to prevent it from working as well.

Thank you!
