NOTATIO

Hi John,

The flipped dots on the bass clef in the original don't make sense, since the dots represent the two cross bars on the letter F, which are on the right side of the symbol and they aren't showing either clef in mirror image.

Yes, but it is the traditional way to use the F clef for Arabic ...

Yep!

I meant if they'd do differently by default...
However, thank you Den for showing us that Graphire is -- was? -- a very, very powerful and fine tool.

Hi Yinyue,

I'm not sure to understand your question. Is it for a specific notation program?
Anyway, with LilyPond I'd simply do:

\version "2.20.0"

partOne = { s1*50 \bar "||" }
partTwo = { s1*50 \bar "||" }
partThree = { s1*50 \bar "|." }

\paper { ragged-last-bottom = ##f }
\header { title = "3 ...

Yep Octo, brilliant idea: see https://www.yumpu.com/fr/document/read/ ... re-perfect (sorry, it's in French)

Wahh! Not bad at all Den!!
Maybe the ties look a little strange, otherwise the output is nice, even with its old fashion clef.

[...] BTW, the hyphens in your example are a bit mad. They're quite high up on the body, and variable in length. Is Lilypond drawing them? [...]
Yes it's LilyPond. Is this an issue?
(In any case, it could be customized.)

[...] You seem to have to specify two hyphens in the code just for one gap ...

[...] Well, yes, I could have matched the paper size, and staff size, and various other details. I haven't done ligatures, either. Some of the glyphs in my font don't really match.
I didn't really plan to make a facsimile, but just a little bit of fun of how to approach that style of notation ...
