Recent releases


Changes: It is now possible to run LilyPond on remote or unnamed documents (i.e. pasted email messages). External applications can now be configured for PDF and MIDI files (instead of using the KDE configured apps). A new align option has been added and other parts of Frescobaldi now also respect the indentation settings instead of always using a 2 spaces indent. New shortcuts were added for inserting nice typographical quotes and the Rumor module has been made more stable. The "Repeat last expression" command now only keeps articulations and ties when repeating a note or chord.


Changes: Several crashes have been eliminated.


Changes: It is now possible to shift-click the PDF preview to select a music fragment in the editor. A tab bar has been added for easier navigation between open documents. The context (right-click) menu is more context sensitive: it contains commands to open an included file (if you right-click an include command), or to perform some actions on selected text. The German translation has been fully updated.


Changes: Spurious crashes seem to have been eliminated. Alt-Up and Alt-Down now jump to the first line of a blank space instead of just the next or previous blank line. LilyPond symbols throughout the program now use the default window text color. Octave marks are removed from the (first) pitch of a chord when using the "repeat last expression" function. Predefined guitar frets have been added to the Chord Names and Lead Sheet part type in the Score Wizard.


Changes: Point and click has become smart: URLs point to the correct position even if the document is changed without re-running LilyPond. Point and click now works well again with tabs in KDE 4.2. A progress bar has been added, as well as a new Polish translation. Some bugs were fixed.
