My thoughts exactly. I did not intend to express that I wanted this as the default, because I don't, only for a convenient option of doing this to exist. Thank you for reviewing this and adding it to the database. Also, thank you for bringing up the Ravel score. It is very interesting that in the last two systems of page 4, on the last bar of each, one can see the same rotated hairpin, one with the end-points vertically aligned and the other without. This page makes a good visual comparison between the two, I personally prefer the aligned one. Also, this highlights that use of this resource was very inconsistent. 2018-02-06 12:10 GMT-03:00 Werner LEMBERG <w...@gnu.org>: > > > Sure, I attached a few from here > > <https://imslp.org/wiki/Special:ReverseLookup/23160> > > Thanks, but in this score there is not a single heavily rotated > hairpin; I would say that the differences are not of any importance. > > > <https://imslp.org/wiki/Special:ReverseLookup/23074>. > > Oh, and an orchestral score doesn't contain heavily rotated hairpins > by its very nature.
