Hello,
I have a situation where the main note is below the stave, and an
alternative note is provided, an octave higher, which is in the stave.
This alternative note has a small note head which is in (square) brackets,
and its stem is in the same direction (up) as the main note. The stem of
the alternative note is just to the left of the stem of the main note.
I can get a reasonable effect using CueVoice, except that the
alternative stem is to the right of the main stem, and I get a warning
about needing a "\voiceXx or \shiftXx setting". But I can't get this
alternative note in brackets: experiments with \parenthesize have so far
not worked.
Here's what I have for these notes (this is in bass clef):
<< {b,} \new CueVoice {<\parenthesize b'4>} >>
So I have these questions:
1. How can I most easily move the cue note to the left?
2. How can I get square brackets around the cue note, and slightly larger
and more spaced out, so as to be easier to see?
Many thanks,
Alasdair
