My use of a text-spanner is to indicate that the note is held while other
notes are played, and is indicated by a square bracket (like a mensural
ligature, but below the staff).
I am using
\override TextSpanner.direction = #DOWN
\override TextSpanner.style = #'line
\override TextSpanner.bound-details.left.text = \markup { \draw-line #'(0 .
1) }
\override TextSpanner.bound-details.right.text = \markup { \draw-line #'(0
. 1) }
which works, except that sometimes one spanner ends, and another starts, on
the same note:
g \stopTextSpan \startTextSpan
What happens is that the second spanner is typeset below the first one.
But what I want is for the two spanners to be aligned horizontally, with a
small space between the finish of the first spanner, and the start of the
second.
What sort of tweaks can I use to make that happen?
Thanks,
Alasdair
