What is the font of the music notes?

The font currently used is the feta font, also used in the lilypond project. Currently MuseScore is not ready to use other fonts as well. It's a matter of finding more developers for improving the MuseScore project.

I still cannot find the way to put a C clef as tenor clef in the second space. I sent the link of an example:

I can substitute the G clef with a little 8 in the bottom for this other c clef int he second space (from top), because I do not need the g+ lo 8 clef.

Thanks !!!

Years ago I wanted to try MuseScore. Certain things that require a learning curve have stopped me from enjoyin the experience. One of them is the old tenor clef that I need to use published in religious music for men.

I also need to learn a lot of programming. I will miss putting the beats in each measure and the counting of pitches, Bells used and many other useful things that I need in my music. But this is with the intention of just using that specific tenor clef (C clef in second space from top (third from bottom) instead of the other tenor clefs (C clef in fourth line from bottom or G clef with an 8va in the bottom.

The closest I have gotten is hiding the g clef with 8va in the bottom and inserting an instrumental c cleff and position it independantly, but then I need to do it for every staff and if I move measures or rearrange my clefs go all around.

If the graphic music font (I have to say graphic because sometimes people uses the term music font to refer to a sound font) is not embeded, then I can edit the font and replace clef symbols and just tell the software to use a different character set for what I need.

I do not know how to use the characters

clefs.nomensural.c
clefs.vaticana.do
clefs.vaticana.fa
clefs.medicaea.do
clefs.medicaea.fa

from the feta font used in musescore. Can you tell me ?

(Reference http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond/The-Feta-font#...)

I am not a programmer, please help me understand. Does this means that the only way to use this part of feta font is to get the source, include the characters of the feta font to be used and then recompile ?

Or it is a total different font just based on feta?

Is there an easier alternative ?

Mephi

Yep, because I asked and because I do not have teeth to bite I have been thrown some pacifiers ...

So here I am, a non programmer with a huge task. So ... I may be stubborn but I am also a learner. I need patience and consideration to my questions as a beginner.

Probable goals (specific to general)

1.- to include an specific variation of the C clef in second space (from top) as an option to the clef menu

2.- To be able to create your own clefs (e clef, a clef, etc) and be able to move any clef to any line or space and hear the proper sound.

4.- to be able to edit and create your own symbols

Ok so I downloaded the source and untar. So here is my first set of questions:

1.- Would it be better for me to learn about QT or c++ in order to edit musescore ?

2.- What is the best way to handle the source (editor compiler, etc.).

Correct me if I am wrong, my guess is that I have to edit the file cef.cpp and the function setSym(xxxx).

You have found yourself a student. Help me learn !!!

So, after looking at several questions I guess a way to edit or make a user palette symbol would be great !!!

Right now the best solution I have had is to use FontCreator and edit mscore-20.ttf with my own symbols. But then I need to learn how to recompile for Windows !!!

Ok lets see:

Qt 4.7.3
CMake 2.8
Zlib
libVorbis
libOgg
portaudio.dll
portaudio.h
JACK 1.9.7
include/sndfile.h
libsndfile-1.dll
nclude/lame.h

and the paths:

C:\QtSDK\Desktop\Qt\4.7.3\mingw\bin
C:\QtSDK\mingw\bin
c:\cmake
(mscore path)

and sources:

SVN code
tortoiseSVN
