Ok, I reply to myself. I was hesitant to use the "extra-offset" command because I though that it would generate a lot of collisions but as it seems that the lyrics and the brackets are attached to the same objects (notes) they move together, great! a sample code for those who would be interested :
<< \new Voice\with {\consists "Horizontal_bracket_engraver"} { \override HorizontalBracket #'extra-offset = #'(0 . -4) c'4 \startGroup c c, c'\stopGroup } \new Lyrics \lyricmode {"a" "a" "a" "a"} >> http://www.nabble.com/file/p18720025/test.png test.png -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Analysis-brackets-for-lyrics-tp18719232p18720025.html Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
