Folks,
two questions about the behaviour of textSpanners:
First question:
If a TextSpanner ends at the beginning at a bar which happens to be a
line break, then
- with TextSpanner.to-barline = ##f, I get the left-broken.text and the
right.text immediately after one another at the beginning of the second
system,
- with TextSpanner.to-barline = ##t, I get no artifacts in the next
line, but right.text is missing in the first system.
What I want: The text spanner should end at the last barline of the
first system, but right.text should be printed.
Second question: Is it possible to let a TextSpanner end precisely at
the end of a piece (last barline) with right.text being printed?
I can approximate the desired behaviour in both cases by letting the
TextSpanner end a very short amount of time before the actual end of the
bar, but that feels conceptually wrong and also does not yield the
correct position of "R".
