Hi Carl,
One issue that comes up in your proposal is that a 1/16 note column
does not
take up 1/16 of a whole note column. So exactly what space are you
thinking
you want?
In the perfect scenario, I suppose Lilypond would "Do The Right Thing":
1. If there were another music event at the moment the Hairpin
was set to begin (delayed) or end (trimmed), it would line up as
expected.
2. If there were no simultaneous music event, the Hairpin would
begin/end proportionally between the immediately adjacent music events.
Presently, dynamic markings are tied to paper columns. Paper
columns are
created by layout objects, including notes. It seems to me that
somehow you
want to change the way dynamic markings interact with paper columns
in order
to get the behavior you desire.
Probably... =(
I just think that dynamics are currently more difficult to manipulate
than would be ideal, and I'm trying to come up with a solution.
Cheers,
Kieren.
