[Guidolib-devel] Staff Size & Position Issues

[Henry F. <gui...@he...>]

I’m hoping to use GuidoLib for iOS apps.  Part of this depends upon the ability to create predictable images from GuidoLib.  So far, I’m generating text and interpreting it instead of making calls to the library for the elements.

Two issues have come up:

If in \staffFormat I set the staff size large, for instance if I’m trying to fill an image, the layout messes up.  Notes get crunched to the right side, etc.  I think I can get around this by using smaller “pages” and scaling it up, but I’ve not explored that yet.

Also, I would like to be able to place the staff at a known x,y, with a known width.  I have tried setting page margins to the page size in \pageFormat, high ledger lines will push the staff down.  Is it possible to get the staff at a known position and not have ledger lines adjust its vertical position?

Thanks!
