For harp ad lib. glissandi, I am trying to produce a continuous line which zig-zags across 2 staves. I thought I could do this by placing notes on alternate staves at the end of each "zig" or "zag", and then putting glissandi between them. Then (I thought) I could make the notes invisible, and change parameters of the glissando lines so that they actually go to the centre of each (invisible) notehead.
Making the notes invisible is easy enough, but try as I might, I can't seem to make any change in the printed length of the glissandi. I have tried altering the 'gap' parameter and 'padding', as well as a few other less promising items. But nothing seems to make any difference to the printed length of the lines, which therefore have gaps between them. I want each line to go to the centre of the invisible notehead, so that I get a continuous line. Of course, the first and last lines only want to be full-length at one end, because there is an actual notehead at the other. How can I achieve this? David
