For the barre in the music this is how I normally do it: Create a different voice context for the bar and use the arpeggioBracket.applied to a chord, here's the code that would display the image you attached.
%============ \version "2.11.39" Guitar = \context Staff \relative c' << \time 6/8 \override Staff.NoteCollision #'merge-differently-dotted = ##t \override Staff.NoteCollision #'merge-differently-headed = ##t \context Voice=uno { \stemUp \override Fingering #'padding = #2.0 c'8 [gis a b c <d-4>] } \new Voice=dos { \stemDown a,2._\mf } \new Voice=barre { %% This is a voice only for the barre \override NoteHead #'transparent = ##t % Dont want to show noteheads or stems, only bracket \override Stem #'transparent = ##t \arpeggioBracket % This sets the arpeggio toa bracket which is what you want <d' gis,>2\arpeggio s4 } >> \score { \Guitar } %============ 2008/2/17, Arjan Bos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > Dear list, > > First of all, does anyone of you know the English word for the Dutch > word Barré?
