Re: frameEngraver repeats not aligned

[holl...@hollandhopson.com]

Thanks David,
Changing the stem direction does the trick. I’d love to have a version of 
frameEngraver that would work with multiple staves. Maybe others would like 
this for score analysis, too? frameEngraver is such an important part of my 
work with lilypond right now; I’d hate to see it abandoned. If there’s ever an 
opportunity for further development, count me in as a sponsor.

I should mention that this needs 2.18.x  There is a single change which you
need for current development versions.  See the last line below:

% ADD NEW GROB DEFINITIONS
%

#(define (add-grob-definition grob-name grob-entry)
   (let* ((meta-entry   (assoc-get 'meta grob-entry))
  (class(assoc-get 'class meta-entry))
  (ifaces-entry (assoc-get 'interfaces meta-entry)))
 (set-object-property! grob-name 'translation-type?
ly:grob-properties?) ;; NB!!

[...]

The width of the frames vary because one note is upstem and the other is
downstem, meaning one extends past the other.  (You can see the nice
alignment which happens when you change both to the same direction.)

All would be well if the bounds were paper columns (and probably if this is
ever to work properly with horizontal spacing they should be new paper
columns, created just for the frames)..

Sorry, I don't have a good solution.  And I've all but given up working on
this, because of long-standing problems which I can't resolve on my own.

One of which is getting it to work with multiple staves--which would be
good with your example!

Anyway, I suppose you could hack an invisible stem up note.  Hate to
suggest that, but it just might work...
