After you found out, it makes sense (because the bracket is not a bracket in the sense that it encloses something, but rather an attribute to the note). But if you are used to writing code, interleaving brackets and braces seems completely counter-intuitive (in particular since lilypond is very picky about slurs when you work with << ....\\ ....>>). I ran into this very problem a while back and it took me some time to figure out that I can interleave the brackets. Once you have found out how it works, it might seem like a no-brainer, but if you have not yet, then such a snippet is quite useful Cheers, Reinhold -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Reinhold Kainhofer, Vienna University of Technology, Austria email: [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://reinhold.kainhofer.com/ * Financial and Actuarial Mathematics, TU Wien, http://www.fam.tuwien.ac.at/ * K Desktop Environment, http://www.kde.org, KOrganizer maintainer * Chorvereinigung "Jung-Wien", http://www.jung-wien.at/ _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
