Re: Analysis brackets
Many thanks for this. I need to experiment a little to see if I can fit the brackets into a rather congested setting.

Re: Analysis brackets
Dear David, Many thanks for this. I was curious about the curly analysis brackets when I saw this in Snippets http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Search?q=curly but couldn't figure out how (or if) these shapes could be used for what I wanted. The only application I could find was to group an ensemble within a larger instrumental contingent.

Analysis brackets
Dear collective wisdom, in transcribing analytical markings I encountered a curly horizontal bracket over a number of pitches. Is it possible to format the existing analysis bracket to reproduce this, or are there other solutions? Would it be possible in a future version to have the option of placing text within analysis brackets as well as the default above? MT
Re: Pitch inflection
No, the arrow modifications are the only departures from standard notation.

Re: Pitch inflection
Thank you for your message. I am hoping to reproduce the arrow notation used by the composer, rather than substituting a different notational convention (which this composer has employed in other pieces). The fact that he implies a difference between a slightly lowered F & a slightly raised E makes me think that he is seeking to inflect the note rather than achieving an identifiable quartertone. Thank you also for alerting me to the resources you mentioned which I had not found.

Pitch inflection
I am transcribing sketches in which small pitch adjustments are notated using up & down arrows. As my aim is to reproduce the composer's notation as closely as possible I don't want to substitute quarter-tone symbols. Is there a simple way to insert arrows in place of accidentals? Playback is not an issue. MT ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
