1. Parenthesizing non-horizontally-fixed grobs (like slurs!): As it stands, which works great for most other grobs, a slur gets parentheses that span the entire vertical extent, rather than the initial and final control points. I think that latter would be much cleaner, but requires a separate section specifically customized for (Phrasing)Slurs. Not sure how hard this would be to implement, though I know it's easy to get the control point information. Then, the parentheses would be positioned relative to those points. 2. Parenthesizing a group of similar grobs in a single set of parentheses (like a series of staccato marks): I think it would also be helpful to have leftPar/rightPar variants that only put a parenthesis on the left/right by itself so that multiple instances of the same type of grob can appear to parenthesized together, rather than individually. I would expect these variants to act more like \once \override to only affect the current grob. Such a function would be helpful to group a series of, say, staccato marks in a single set of parentheses, a left parenthesis on the first one and a right parenthesis on the last one. I've seen this on numerous occasions. This one, I know, can be addressed quickly with variants of the current "parenthesis-stencil" and "par" functions. Just my thoughts on the matter. - Abraham -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Enhancement-Implement-parenthesizing-spanners-tp179714p179734.html Sent from the Bugs mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
