Thanks for clarifying this point. I agree. > 2. If not, how do we indicate the 5 states listed above? > \arpeggioNormal > \arpeggioPointUp > \arpeggioPointDown > \arpeggioBracket > \arpeggioParenthesis "Point" is okay. Another possibility could be "ArrowUp" and "ArrowDown". I like \arpeggioNormal, but if it is intended to be a "generic" command, it would need to include reverts for the 'stencil, 'arpeggio-direction, and 'X-extent properties. This isn't ideal, but it might be a workable solution.
