 Thanks tons, so, what does the Dynamic_engraver do then?

I don't know.  AFAIK, it is not serving any purpose, since its
functionality has been transferred to the two new engravers.

dynamic spanner help

2008-07-09 Thread James E. Bailey 
I've not understood this for a while, and I figure I should probably  
ask about it. When I have dynamics in a variable, the text spanner  
shows up and I can't get rid of it.

\version 2.11.51
\layout {
   \context {
  \type Engraver_group
  \name VocalDynamics
  \alias Voice
  \consists Text_engraver
  \consists Dynamic_engraver
  \consists Text_engraver
  \override TextScript #'font-shape = #'italic
   }
   \context {\Staff \accepts VocalDynamics}
}
Voice = \relative { e1 f g e a g f d }
VoiceDynamics = \new VocalDynamics {
   \override DynamicTextSpanner #'dash-period = #-1.0
   \dimTextDim
   s1*3\ s1\!
   \crescTextCresc
   s1*3\ s1\!
   \setHairpinDim
}

\score {
   \new Staff  \VoiceDynamics \Voice
   \layout {}
}

\relative c'' {
   \override DynamicTextSpanner #'dash-period = #-1.0
   \crescTextCresc

Also, the \crescTextCresc and \dimTextDim work like there's a \once in  
front of them when they're in the variable.

\version 2.11.51
\layout {
   \context {
  \type Engraver_group
  \name VocalDynamics
  \alias Voice
  \consists Text_engraver
  \consists Dynamic_engraver
