I don't think it would hurt to have this as a default; unless it throws up any regressions, I'll change it. >> >>> 2. if there is only one note left, the spanner line stops on the first >>> line, >>> and the right-(broken-) text is printed - probably a bug >> >> This is a feature of line spanners, I'm afraid (they are deliberately >> suppressed after a line break if they end on the first note). >> Naturally, if you've set #'right-broken #'text, it will always be >> displayed before a line break. >> >> > > i cannot find a reason to do this I believe it's mainly due to the fact that in some cases, the left-broken spanner would be too small (e.g., a glissando); though you could argue that the option should be there if a user wants to override the default behaviour. > what would you say about a volta spanner > that ends on the line before the break when there is still a note to play on > the next line…? I'd say LilyPond handles volte OK, since they're not generated using line-spanner-interface (in such cases, the broken volta extends at least to the end of the bar). :) > are there any workarounds? Attaching the spanner to a hidden voice is probably the best bet; or perhaps inserting a hidden note before the real (scaled) end note, though the note spacing might be unsatisfactory. >>> 3. can the continuation after the break be aligned with the first note? >> >> #'left-broken #'end-on-note = ##t >> >> This is hidden away in the internals reference (it's only used for >> trill spanners). >> > > perfect! (maybe a small wonderment why it is hidden?!) It was introduced to fix a spacing bug with trills (where trill spanners started before the note after a line break), but hasn't made it into the docs yet (http://kainhofer.com/~lilypond/Documentation/user/lilypond/Spanners.html#Spanners). >>> 4. the end (right) mark seems to be centered on the last note - can i >>> push >>> it to the right? >> >> #'right #'padding = #-2 >> #'right-broken #'padding = ##f (this has to be set otherwise 'right >> 'padding applies) >> > > i could have thought of it, but with all the other problems i got confused… > now i use a padding of #-1 which fits my needs! It's understandable that you might find bound-details daunting; there are several nested properties which influence each other, so it can be quite confusing. I guess this is the price to pay for having so much control over spanners. Regards, Neil
