Hi Eby, > i want the Bracket at the first beat of the bar.
That's wasn't clear to me from the code you provided (i.e., where the bracket was placed, the timing of the overrides, etc.) > Is the placement of brackets different on recent version of lilypond ? I don't think so… If you want the bracket first, why not try something like this? %%%% SNIPPET BEGINS rightOne = \relative c'' { d1 \once \override Score.BarLine #'extra-spacing-width = #'(0 . 4) | \once \override TextScript #'X-offset = #-1.5 <>^\markup { \openBracket #19.3 } <>_\markup { \small \rounded-box "II: Principal Chorus" } d4 a d e | } %%%% SNIPPET ENDS Hope that helps, Kieren. ________________________________ Kieren MacMillan, composer ‣ website: www.kierenmacmillan.info ‣ email: i...@kierenmacmillan.info _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
