Greetings Folks, No hint of any replies to this query. Is it something very difficult perhaps? The concept is for indicating optional or reconstructed missing passages, as used by some editors. Andrew Andrew Bernard mailto:andrew.bern...@gmail.com Monday, September 15, 2014 8:13 PM

It's quite common to redefine breathing signs to provide another symbol within the music in this way, so I'd suggest not ignoring it as a hack. The difficulty would be allowing for varying staff spacing, which I certainly don't know how to do and may account for the lack of other replies. --

Thanks, Pierre, that is quite good already, but there is an issue with octavation spanning only one note. See this: \version 2.19.13 myOttavaUp = { \override Staff.OttavaBracket.stencil = #ly:line-spanner::print \override Staff.OttavaBracket.bound-details = #`((left . ((Y . 0)

Neil Add this to your \layout block: \context { \Score \override PaperColumn.stencil = #ly:paper-column::print } Great! This works nicely. Now I understand better how this thing works internally! You don't set this to anything that the grob will read (see below).

Hi Jay, I'm not sure if this will help, but I've found that you can either modify things on the input/pre-processing side (writing a music function that changes or adds things to the music that's been input before it is converted into grobs), or on the output/post-processing side (overriding

Paul Morris wrote I'm not sure but what you're trying to do might best be done on the input side. Actually, nevermind since this is before measures/positions have been determined. So I'm at a loss... My next thought is that you may need to create custom engraver, but I'm not even sure that
