Hi, Even less work would be to change Hairpin.minimum-length. %% MWE \version "2.19" \language "english" \layout { \context { \Voice \override Hairpin.minimum-length = #8 } } \score { << \new Staff \with { \dynamicUp } { c'2\< a2 c'2\mf\> f'2\p c'2\< a2 c'2\mf\> f'2\p } \new Staff \with { \dynamicUp } { a2\< f2 a2\mf\> c'4( bf)\p a2\< f2 a2\mf\> c'4( bf)\p } \addlyrics { Al -- le -- lu -- ia Al -- le -- lu -- ia } >> } %% It works. Although it would be better if Hairpin #'minimum-length would apply to REAL length of the hairpin. https://sourceforge.net/p/testlilyissues/issues/2207/ Cheers, Xavier -- Xavier Scheuer <x.sche...@gmail.com>
