I've been wondering that, too, but I've found no magic bullet so far. Sometimes I have used extra-offset to lower the VoltaBracket to the desired level. That, however, takes place after the spacing calculations have already been made. On tightly set pages this is not good. Another way is to use Y-extent and minimum-Y-extent. In this case you have to calculate (test) the right values for the Y extent and the height of the bracket. The upside is that this way the spacing calculations should be correct. See the example. Question: Could VoltaBracket be changed in such a way that it would sense the skyline and lower itself closer to the staff if the stuff would not collide with the bracket or the volta number? -Risto %%%% \version "2.11.43" \paper { ragged-right = ##t } \relative c' { \override Score.VoltaBracket #'edge-height = #'(3.0 . 3.0) \override Score.VoltaBracket #'Y-extent = #'(0 . 0.0) \override Score.VoltaBracket #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-0.35 . 0.0) \repeat volta 2 { c1 }\alternative {{ c2 c^\f }{ c2 c \bar "|."}} } %%%%
