I was surprised that it's possible to create new grobs in Scheme! I looked for that functionality while writing cross-staff stem support and could not find it. I see that you copied add-grob-definition from scheme-text-spanner.ly. I believe add-grob-definition is so important that it should be a part of the Lilypond core. That's the only way to define a new grob in Scheme, and it gets copied from one snippet to another! I think the best place for add-grob-definition would be scm/translation-functions.scm next to make-engraver. I've opened an issue for that: http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2503 -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
