No, i mean something else. Take a look at the attachment - this is how this glyph's bounding box should look like in my opinion. You may want to take a look at bounding boxes "Arrowed Natural (arrow up)", "flat (slashed)", "Thumb" (i can see the bounding boxes when i convert the gf file to dvi and view it using xdvi. (i can send you a script doing this, if you want)). >> Vertically, i agree with Werner that the bounding box shouldn't be >> bigger than the glyph - the distance between staff and the mark should >> be achieved in some other way. > > How would I move it up without adding empty space to the bottom of the box? I suppose that the command that would change BreathingSign's stencil to this glyph would also change its padding. >> I would also place the vertical "center" >> of the box level with "top dip point", ie the point labeled 2r in dvi >> preview i see on my machine. > > I don't understand this.

See above, i hope my explanation and example is clear. >> Also, do you have some snippet demonstrating this glyph along with some >> notes? If so, please post it in the tracker. > > Done. thanks.
