Looking at the implementation, I found the solution to your problem. It
turns out
that the line is only printed if it's longer than the dash-period
property, which
probably makes sense if the line is dashed but not otherwise. Anyway, this
property is set to 3.0 by default for TextSpanner objects, so you can use
\once \override TextSpanner #'dash-period = #0
to solve the problem.

I tried both before: The edge-text version which as I know is much more elegant
is of no advantage to me and the separation-item which I use quite often
doesn't give a satisfying result here, since the 8.-16-rhythm is used in a
linear context with much longer notes that either become too seperated or seem
to be even shorter than my 8. I thought something similar to
\override SystemStartBrace #'collapse-height = ##f
might exist.

Betreff: Re: text spanner collapse
One solution is to widen the spacing between the notes slightly, so
that the spanner gets sufficiently long even when shortened. Try to
insert something like
\once \override Score.SeparationItem #'padding = #2
between the two notes.
Also, I don't really understand why you don't specify the \open
and \stopped as an edge-text of the text spanner. Try
\override TextSpanner #'edge-text = #(cons (markup #:musicglyph
"scripts.open" ) (markup #:musicglyph "scripts.stopped" ) )

Please have a look at this:

\score {
\new Staff { \override Staff.Script #'staff-padding = #2.32 \relative
c' {
\once \override TextSpanner #'staff-padding = #2.65
\once \override TextSpanner #'dash-fraction = #'()
\once \override TextSpanner #'arrow = ##t
\once \override TextSpanner #'arrow-length = #0.75
\once \override TextSpanner #'arrow-width = #0.25
%this is about what I need, but the spanner disappears
\once \override TextSpanner #'shorten-pair = #'(1.5 . 1.3)
%with this shorten-pair the spanner appears, but is too long
%\once \override TextSpanner #'shorten-pair = #'(1.2 . 1.3)
\once \override Staff.TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(-1.5 . -3.17)

Betreff: Re: text spanner collapse
It's much easier to answer a question like that if you include
a short (but complete) example that illustrates the problem.

hi,
dose anyone know how to avoid the collapse of text spanners when they
are shortened a lot?
version 2.8.1
thank you in advance,
