Thanks for clarifying. My score only uses triplets for unbeamed notes,
and I mistakenly misattributed the number and bracket placement to the
ratio rather than the presence of beams. Next time I'll test with a
simpler example like the one you include.
Your solution works well in 2.18.2. Thanks!

Hi Mason,

Lilypond by default seems to place all tuplet numbers/brackets so
that they
collide with the staff, with the exception of triplets, which it
places
outside the staff.
isn't true.
See
{
\cadenzaOn
\tuplet 2/1 { a4 a }
\tuplet 3/2 { a a a }
\tuplet 4/3 { a a a a }
\tuplet 5/4 { a a a a a }
\tuplet 6/5 { a a a a a a }
\tuplet 7/6 { a a a a a a a }
}
and
{
\tuplet 2/1 { a8 a }
\tuplet 3/2 { a a a }
\tuplet 4/3 { a a a a }
\tuplet 5/4 { a a a a a }
\tuplet 6/5 { a a a a a a }
\tuplet 7/6 { a a a a a a a }
}
Where the TupletBracket is printed depends on whether a Beam is
present or not, presence of other maybe colliding objects etc.
Has nothing to do if being a triplet or anything else.
Btw, what you call collisions is common practice in printed editions.
I would like all tuplets outside of the staff like
triplets.
If I do both
\override Staff.TupletNumber #'outside-staff-priority = #1
\override Staff.TupletBracket #'outside-staff-priority = #1
I get an error: "warning: Cannot set outside-staff-priority for
element and
elements' Y parent."
I agree it would be better to set outside-staff-priority for both,
Number and Bracket, and let LilyPond sort it out.
Alas, it doesn't work. You may write a feature-request to the
bug-list.
For now you could do:
\override TupletBracket.after-line-breaking =
#(lambda (grob)
(ly:grob-set-property!
(if (and (ly:stencil-empty? (ly:grob-property grob
'stencil))
(ly:grob? (ly:grob-object grob 'tuplet-number)))
(ly:grob-object grob 'tuplet-number)
grob)
'outside-staff-priority
100))
Cheers,
Harm
