This has been implemented in a similar way as described above. A line with a positive gradient placed to the left of a note. Rotation in the painter is only done after we have checked whether we are drawing these kinds of slide, otherwise we draw a straight line with a positive gradient, or negative gradient, beside whichever note is annotated with such a slide. With these slides, the gradient of the line is constant, and there is only one note which is affected, and so the only variable in the angle of straight gissando is what kind of slide we are drawing, rather than pitch information of the affected note. To create the straight glissando in the previous cases, we take the start and finish notes, add rotations to the painter to take into account the difference in pitch, then draw a straight line equal to the length of the hypotenuse from the information of the difference in width and height of beginning and end notes on the score. The way rendering is done for this and the following three kinds of slides above is a variation inside glissando.cpp, as it made sense to keep all the slide implementation together. ![]() A line with a negative gradient placed to the left of a note. This will be one of the areas of work I will look at next week. ![]() I have not implemented support for this kind of slide yet, as we do not currently have support for slurs in Guitar Pro 6. Displayed the same as a shift slide but with the addition of a slur. This is represented as a glissando with a straight line and no text, which works great. Guitar Pro specifies six kinds of slide, and I’ll talk a bit how I’ve implemented support for these below: Most of the time this week has been spent looking at bug #22604, which describes the situation we have where slides are not imported. The issue here was that Guitar Pro has different ways of representing slurs/hammer-ons/pull-offs, and one of these cases was not handled correctly causing some cases to fail, but it’s fixed now. I’ve now done all that and edited the solution a little as appropriate, which handles the case that was highlighted in bug #22128 which caused that bug to be re-opened. GPX files can still be exported to MIDI and thus imported to an older version of the editor, however that usually renders inaccurate tablatures, making it a less-than-ideal solution.Last week I wrote a bit about the slur functionality I was working on, and had a solution which needed further testing. On its own a GPX file contains no real audio data, but only metadata used for generating audio with the Guitar Pro editor.Ī major downside of GPX files is that they cannot be natively exported to one of the older Guitar Pro formats, making it impossible to open Guitar Pro 6 documents, without buying the latest copy of Guitar Pro. ![]() The data itself, once uncompressed, represents a “little hard-disk” (an independent file system) consisting of various XML files that contain the actual data used for rendering the file inside the Guitar Pro editor, such as information about the various bars, tracks, voices, beats and notes that form the actual file. Contrary to older Guitar Pro formats, such as GP3, GP4 and GP5, data stored in GPX files is encoded using a proprietary made dynamic dictionary compression scheme. The Guitar Pro 6 GPX file is strictly a file containing musical notation. GPX (Guitar Pro 6 Document) is a special container file format developed by Arobas Music for storing musical scores and guitar or bass tablatures created with their multitrack editor Guitar Pro.
