I would actually recommend embedded postscript. Look at the example
embedded-postscript.ly <http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.4/input/test/out-www/lily-1795817312.ly> in the Tips and Tricks document. You can also
find some examples in the mailing list archives.

Mats -

The goal is to cater to the flair Adam used at the end of his manuscripts.
See, for example,
http://www.yeodoug.com/publications/adam_collection/adam_solos/adamsolos.03.
pdf.

With version 2.0.1, I was able to produce

using slur control points and the glyph "flags-stem" to get the extra
vertical bar. Version 2.4.3 lost the glyph.


Here's the code, extracted from messier stuff, so the offsets may be wrong.

bes2.\fermata
\bar "||"

  \property Voice.NoteHead \override #'transparent  = ##t
  \property Voice.Stem \override #'transparent = ##t

  \property Voice.Slur \set #'thickness = #1.6
  \property Voice.Slur \set #'extra-offset = #'(-6.3 . 0.0)
  \property Voice.Slur \set #'control-points =#'((0.0 . -0.5) (1.5 . 1.5)
(3.0 . -1.5) (4.5 . 0.5))

  \once\property Voice.TextScript \set #'extra-offset = #'(-4.5 . -3.30)
  c ( ^\markup {\magnify #1.7 \bold ":"}

  \once\property Voice.TextScript \set #'extra-offset = #'(-8.4 . -5.8)
  c ) ^\markup { \magnify #1.2 { \musicglyph #"flags-stem" \hspace #-1.2
\musicglyph #"flags-stem" }}

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

If you describe more exactly what you want to achieve (or at least show an
example of how you used the glyph in earlier versions), I'm sure that someone
on the mailing list can come up with a solution.

Recently upgraded from LilyPond 2.0.1 to 2.4.3, Windows XP. The glyph "flags-stem" now seems to be missing from the Feta font set. Don't need it for the stem, but it has been the only way discovered to insert a vertical line. Can fake it with slur control points, but the resulting line has variable width.

Is there a way to control the slur line to constant thickness?

If not, a rather general and useful feature might be to provide a uniform-thickness user settable property for the slur interface.

Thanks.
