Large square brackets for modern notation
I want to draw square brackets taller than staff height to indicate, for example, free rhythm with specified pitches using stemless noteheads inside the brackets. I believe Penderecki and others have used them. Right now I'm trying text markup but can't get the brackets big and heavy enough to cover the whole staff height.

The dialog in question is provided by KDE. In that case, try setting the default app for Midi files inside Gnome. Frescobaldi just 'runs' the file, as if you clicked on it in the file manager. (It might be confusing, the path and command for timidity in the configuation dialog is about timidity running as an ALSA midi client (so you can enter music with Rumor and hear the notes as played), not for playing back the LilyPond-generated MIDI file.) If this remains a problem, I'll be glad to alter Frescobaldi and make it possible that users enter a path to the desired MIDI player, independent of the OS default one. best regards, Wilbert Berendsen -- Frescobaldi, LilyPond editor for KDE: http://www.frescobaldi.org/ ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Can't Change Line Width
Hi,
In 2.12 single line scores are by default short. To have single line scores
extend to the full line width, add ragged-right = ##f to the paper block.
( You *can* set line-width etc. in the \paper { } block, not the \layout
block. )
