| + | ====== Publish options ====== | ||
| + | A number of [[publishing:publishing_overview|publishing]] options are available to customise how a published score appears. Publishing options will only affect the published document; they do not change how the project appears in the [[basics:user_interface|Music Editing Area]]. | ||
| + | ===== Changing Publish Options ===== | ||
| + | [{{ :publishing:publishwindow_top.png?nolink&300|Change publish options in the //Publish Window//}}] | ||
| + | Publishing options are set in the //Publish Window// just before you publish. To change publish options | ||
| + | - Launch the publish window. For instructions on how to do this, see the [[publishing:publishing_overview#how_to_publish|publishing overview]] or the [[basics:first_score|Your First Score]] tutorial. | ||
| + | - Change the options you wish | ||
| + | - **Press Publish** to save your options and publish. Alternately, press **Save Options** to save your options, then **press Cancel** to close the window. | ||
| + | ===== Available Options ===== | ||
| + | ==== Template ==== | ||
| + | === Template === | ||
| + | Templates define the overall page layout of your published score. For more information, see [[publishing:templates|Templates]]. To change the template: | ||
| + | - If a busy animation is in progress, wait for it to cease | ||
| + | - **Click Change** | ||
| + | - In the window that appears, either **search for templates** or **click //Get All Templates//** | ||
| + | - **Browse** through the templates shown. You can press the preview button for a larger view of a template. While previewing a template, click the image to see the next page. | ||
| + | - **Click a template** | ||
| + | - **Click OK** to return to the publish window | ||
| + | === Title Repositioning === | ||
| + | Sometimes, a title may be so long that it goes off the edge of the page, or beyond the page margins. Title repositioning states whether to keep titles: | ||
| + | * Within the Page, or | ||
| + | * Within the Page Margins, or | ||
| + | * To not reposition titles that are large | ||
| + | Title repositioning only affects the horizontal position of a title. It does not affect the vertical placement of titles | ||
| + | === Starting Page Number === | ||
| + | Sets the starting page, and where page numbering starts counting from. Note that, if this is a value other than 1, templates with a special first page will not skip the special first page. | ||
| + | === Stretch Bars To Fill Rows === | ||
| + | Sets whether bars are stretched so that the full margin-width of the page is used. | ||
| + | === Stretch Bars Of Last Row === | ||
| + | Sets whether the last row of each section is stretched to fill the full margin-width of the page. The //auto// setting of this will stretch the last row if it is over a certain width; very short rows will not be stretched. | ||
| + | ==== Pre-Publish Processing ==== | ||
| + | === Multiple Measure Rests === | ||
| + | [{{ :publishing:mmr_with_without.png?nolink|A 6-bar sequence published with (bottom) and without (top) multi-measure rests}}] | ||
| + | Multiple-measure rests are created during publishing; they cannot be created manually in the music editing area. | ||
| + | The //Convert Empty Bars To Multiple Measure Rests// option sets whether empty bars are converted into a multiple-measure rest. When this option is on, you will be able to choose the minimum number of empty bars in a row before a multiple-measure rest is created. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Multi-measure rests are only created in **bars that only contain auto (gray) rests** or bar numbers. Any bars containing confirmed (black/red/blue) rests, marks, text, or notes of any kind will not have a multiple-measure rest created in them. This means that you can stop a multiple-measure rest appearing in a specific bar by simply clicking one of the rests. | ||
| + | === Convert Empty Bars To Whole-Note Rests === | ||
| + | Sets whether Musink should automatically replace all rests in empty bars with a single whole-note rest. This only affects bars which have no notes and no confirmed (black/red/blue) rests. This function does not affect whether multiple-measure rests are created. | ||
| + | === Simplify Rest Groupings === | ||
| + | Sets whether auto (gray) rests in compound time signatures should be simplified to dotted durations, where appropriate. | ||
| + | === Connect Barlines === | ||
| + | Sets which staves should have their barlines connected vertically. | ||
| + | ==== Template Fields ==== | ||
| + | //Template Fields// are the titles that appear on the page. A variety of these are available, such as Title, Composer, Arranger, and Page Number. Each [[publishing:templates|template]] makes different fields available; the fields you see in the //Publish Window// are those available to the template you have currently selected. | ||
| + | === Where will they appear? === | ||
| + | To see how fields are used in a template: | ||
| + | - **Note the name** of your template | ||
| + | - **Click the Change** button | ||
| + | - **Search** for your template by name, or browse through all templates to find it | ||
| + | - **Press Preview** to see a preview of your template. The fields in the preview will be visible | ||
| + | - **Click the image to move to the next page** | ||
| + | - When you have finished, **close the preview window** | ||
| + | - Press Cancel in the **Change Template** window to return to the publish window | ||
| + | === Which Should I Use? === | ||
| + | You can use as many or few as you wish. If you do not use a field, publishing will generally try to use that space for music. | ||
| + | === Page Numbers === | ||
| + | Most templates will let you change how the bar numbers are formatted. You can write anything you wish in the Page Number field, but ensure you include a hash (#) to say where the page number appears. For example: | ||
| + | ^ ^As Published^^ | ||
| + | ^In publish window^Page One^Page Two^ | ||
| + | |-#-|-1-|-2-|etc| | ||
| + | |Page #|Page 1|Page 2|etc| | ||
| + | |(#)|(1)|(2)|etc| | ||
| + | |I # a worm|I 1 a worm|I 2 a worm|etc| | ||
| + | |etc|etc|etc| | ||
| + | ==== Sections ==== | ||
| + | === Include Section === | ||
| + | Specifies whether a section should be included in the published score. | ||
| + | === Start On New Page === | ||
| + | Specifies whether a section should start on a new page. | ||
| + | === Show Stave Names === | ||
| + | Sets how often to show stave names. | ||
| + | * //Never//: Stave names will never be shown | ||
| + | * //Every Row//: Stave names appear on every row | ||
| + | * //Start Of Each Page//: Stave names will appear for the top row of each page | ||
| + | * //Start Of Section//: Stave names will appear once for this section, at the start of the section | ||
