Hello, everyone,

I have a situation where LilyPond doesn't do a good job with tuplet bracket
lengths.  To fix this, I was thinking of using \tweak
TupletBracket.X-positions, but when there is more than one bracket, this
tweak affects them all the same.  I want to find a way to tell lilyPond how
to engrave the second bracket correctly.  Here is some code to demonstrate
the problem and a picture of what I'm trying to fix.

%%% Begin
\version "2.24.4"

\relative {
  \key g \minor
  \clef bass
  \time 12/8
  \set subdivideBeams = ##t
  \tupletDown
  g,4.(~ g8
    % Comment the tweak to see the problem I'm trying to solve.
    % Tweak affects both brackets, how do I affect the second separately?
    \tweak TupletBracket.X-positions #'(0.5 . 4.5)
    \tuplet 3/2 8 { a16 bes c  d e fis } g8) c c  c c c |
  % Just filler to crowd the first measure
  c8 c c  c c c  c c c  c c c |
  c8 c c  c c c  c c c  c c c |
}
%%% End
