I find that even using shorten-pair (with a negative first value) fails to do this as I expected. So now I don't know any way to print the bracket with the preferred layout...

However, LilyPond doesn't always do this - instead, if the first note has an up-stem, the bracket is aligned with the stem instead. Is there a reason for this? And is there a way to correct this globally, or do I have to tweak shorten-pair for each affected instance? Paul
