Hi James, I understand the idea but I thing you missunderstand the X-extent effect. If I follow you, you'd rather extent the note head. So here it goes :
\version "2.19.15" parenWider = { \once\override NoteHead.X-extent = #'(-1.5 . 1.3) \once\override Accidental.X-extent = #'(1.5 . 0) \once\override Accidental.extra-offset = #'(1.5 . 0) } \score { \new Staff { \parenWider \parenthesize fis'4 } } HTH, Pierre 2015-02-06 19:36 GMT+01:00 James Worlton <jworl...@gmail.com>: > Hi all, > > I"m trying to widen the parentheses so the left brace doesn't collide with > the sharp.
