Putting Circle Frames on Particular Fingerings

• Feb 20, 2019 - 00:09

Hi all

I'm a newbie trying to learn how to write plugins for musescore. My goal is simple. Search the score for fingerings, and if there is a fingering that is labeled 1, put a circle frame on that fingering. I tried searching documentation on how to access the frame element, but can't seem to find any. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

Figure included is the desired behaviour.

Thank you in advance

It's located in the inspector (F8 to toggle it).

Hi Mike

Thanks for replying. My apologies, I should have mentioned that I'd like to do this programmatically i.e. code a plugin to perform this task.

Thanks!

You will need to wait for a programmer to wake up and see this post then. They're mostly asleep in Europe right now.

нужно изменить стиль текста. если я правильно Вас понял, Вы хотите все единички в круглую рамку?
(need to change text style. if I understand you correctly, do you want all the ones in a round frame?)

function searchFingering(track, searchValue) {
    var segment = curScore.firstSegment();
    while (segment) {
        var element = segment.elementAt(track);
        if (element &amp;&amp; element._name() == 'Chord') {
            for (var i = 0; i &lt; element.notes.length; i++) {
                var note = element.notes[i];
                for (var ii = 0; ii &lt; note.elements.length; ii++) {
                    var noteElement = note.elements[ii];
                    if (noteElement._name() === 'Fingering' &amp;&amp; noteElement.text === searchValue) {
                        noteElement.textStyleType = 10;
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        segment = segment.next;
    }
}
  onRun: {
    if (curScore) {
        searchFingering(0, '1');

That's exactly what I wanted to do. textStyleType was what I was looking for. спасибо!

Hi Bazhenoff,

Sorry to trouble you again. When I tried your suggestion, nothing happens to the '1'. I tried debugging and found that the textStyleType property is undefined

console.log(noteElement.textStyleType)
Returned: Debug: undefined

Do you know if there's documentation on the properties of the elements?

Much changed in the plugin framework between MS2 and MS3. Here is a preliminary document for 3.0.

Hi Louis,

Thanks for linking me the documentation. This will be very useful.

It says there that TextStyleType has been changed to Tid. When I tried noteElement.Tid , I'm still getting undefined. I tried investigating the noteElement object via Object.keys(noteElement), but I don't see a Tid property in there. I realize that Tid is an enum, but what properties do I use it against in noteElement?

for 3.x
noteElement.subStyle = 10;

That works! Thank you so much!

I've got a lot to learn...
