A bundle was a one-way trip. The slice images are output and the cuts
that produced them lived only in the producer's own project file, so a
bundle someone handed you meant cutting the score again from scratch.
The manifest now carries the geometry, in a `source` block: per page the
cut polylines, skew, levels and content rectangle, all in normalised
coordinates so they survive any render resolution, and per slice the page
and slot it came from. Discards are stated by omission — a slot no slice
claims was discarded — since shipping a discarded slice's image would
defeat discarding it.
`noteman-slicer open song.zip` unpacks the archived PDF, rebuilds the
project from that geometry, restores markers, engravings and the title
block, and opens the editor. Jump destinations go back from an array
index to the (page, slot) the editor works in. The images in the zip are
discarded: the PDF is what the pipeline renders from. Re-exporting a
reopened bundle reproduces its manifest exactly. It refuses to overwrite
a PDF or project file already sitting there, because the obvious place to
unpack is where someone's unfinished cuts live.
Separately, every slice can now carry the measure it starts at, not just
a re-engraved one — a scanned system is numbered in the score the same
way, and noteman wants to answer "take it from bar 33" about either. It
moves off the replacement onto the page, alongside markers and discards,
and out of the bundle's engraving object onto the slice.
A system can now be given the measure it starts at, in a First bar field
beside key and time. Per slice, since it is the one thing about a
replacement that cannot be inherited from the song. Bar numbering is a
Score property, so it is set once on the first staff, and made visible
only at a line beginning — that vector is fussy: #(#f #t #t) also prints
a number mid-system and #(#f #t #f) prints the second bar's rather than
the first's. It travels in the bundle's engraving object as `bar`.
Two things LilyPond 2.24 was quietly refusing to draw:
`\bar ":|"` and the other old repeat names produce nothing at all — no
error, no warning, exit status 0, just a missing repeat that you find on
the tablet. Every book and forum answer still uses them, so translate
them to the modern spellings.
`\clef treble_8` unquoted is not an octavated clef either. It parses as a
plain treble plus a stray "8" markup that lands under the first note, and
the staff then reads an octave off — a tenor line engraved at soprano
pitch. Quote it.
The source pane, which is where either of those would have been visible,
is now a collapsed section at the bottom rather than a permanent slab. It
uses the panel's own disclosure helper, lifted out of Editor so both can
call it.
Re-engraving is a rescue path for the handful of systems a scan cannot
deliver, so the window is an editing surface rather than an automation
project. Three full-width rows - the scanned system, the render, the
form - because a system is wide and short and the job is comparing one
against the other bar by bar. The render is shown scaled to the scan's
staff height, which is what export does anyway, so it previews the real
thing.
A form rather than a text box. Key and time are slice-level, clef,
notes and lyrics per voice: every staff in a system carries the same key
signature, and Kaipaava proves it across five-staff and two-staff
systems alike. Notes and lyrics stay raw LilyPond, so slurs, dynamics,
tuplets and the laissezVibrer/repeatTie idiom for ties crossing into the
next slice all work untouched.
Notes are entered in \relative mode, referenced to the middle of each
clef's staff, so a part needs no octave marks at all in the common case.
The time signature is used for spacing and bar checks but not printed:
the printed score repeats the key at every system and the time only at
the first, so a re-engraved middle slice showing one would stand out.
Seeded from what can be known reliably. Voice count comes from counting
staves in the slice; key, time and clefs are inherited from the song,
because the slices being re-engraved are the illegible ones and reading
a key signature off them is exactly the measurement that fails. After
the first replacement in a song only the notes need typing.
Staff counting needed two corrections against the corpus: compare gaps
against line spacing rather than staff height, since adjacent staves can
sit closer together than one staff is tall; and require five lines in a
group, since Engel's 'uh______' lyric extenders are long horizontal runs
too and each counted as a staff. Kaipaava now reads 2,2,2,2,5 on page 1,
Ketun 6, Engel 4.
Also in this change:
- Title is required for export, every other metadata field optional,
enforced in bundle.write so the CLI and the editor both get it. Tempo
added; noteman already has a free-form column for it.
- The panel is a splitter rather than a fixed width, sections collapse
under bold grey disclosure headers, and it scrolls.
- A re-engraved slice is washed amber with an ENGRAVED badge, and
markers get badges too. Thin coloured text was invisible against a
scan.
