Frankly, I decided against doing so since redefining parser behavior
by
resetting a global variable controlling its behavior in the middle of
a music
expression is a complete abomination. This is different to how
\tupletSpan (or
its equivalent \override) works since \tupletSpan becomes a _part_ of
the music
expression.
I appreciate that reasoning, however the ability to set global behaviour is one of lilypond's major strengths - if overriding a default has to be entered at every usage of \afterGrace then we are back to making changes with sed scripts. The default value of 3/4 is almost always not appropriate, and I regularly set this globally after entering the music to find a suitable value. Perhaps afterGraceFraction could be somehow included in graceSettings or some other property of the Voice context? https://codereview.appspot.com/304200043/ _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
