Hi everyone,
was there an update to allow for customization over time signatures?
Kind regards,
Dan.
Time Signatures
Re: Time Signatures
Hi Dan - no, an update to support arbitrary time signatures is still not available.
Re: Time Signatures
That's a shame, but thanks for letting me know. Three is a possible workaround I've found, if only to use on small groove/fill ideas, like 4 Bars long etc.. Exporting the PDF, converting to a PNG file online, then using paint to srub out the 4/4 and replace it. I don't yet know the font style that is used for time signatures on charts yet mind.
Re: Time Signatures
The font is the "Feta font" used by LilyPond (another music notation program).
These are the time signature glyphs:

One option would be to use LilyPond to render out the time signatures of interest to a PNG and paste them into your own image.

Hi Richard,
many thanks for the reply mate, most appreciated. Do I download the feta font from that page link? As I have tried but can't seem to see a download link. Cheers!

Re: Time Signatures
I can't find a copy of the font files online either but it looks like you will have them after installing LilyPond (http://lilypond.org/download.html)
In the case of Windows, these are the files:
C:\Program Files (x86)\LilyPond\usr\share\lilypond\current\fonts\otf\emmentaler*.otf
The Feta font is contained within the font called Emmentaler.
(http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documenta ... taler-font)
In the case of Aered we do not process those font files directly. Instead we used LilyPond to render the glyphs we needed to SVG files and processed those.
