Hi, I tried to investigate the impacts of an NoteHead-stencil-override, concerning Accidentals, Stems and LedgerLines using the override below (representing a more complicated one).
\override NoteHead #'stencil = #(lambda (grob) (let* ((stencil (ly:note-head::print grob)) (new-stil (grob-interpret-markup grob (markup #:box #:pad-markup 2 #:stencil stencil)))) new-stil)) Applying this will move Accidentals and Stems away from the default-note-head, LedgerLines will be elongated. With great help from Keith I managed to restore the stem-attachment. → http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2012-07/msg00230.html Now I tried to tackle the LedgerLines. But I found no feasible method to address the LedgerLines from inside a NoteHead-stencil-override. And more, it only seems to be possible to manipulate Ledgerlines at the very start of a voice: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2011-04/msg00497.html ff, or with restarting-staff-trickery. Well, ok, I tried it the other way. Creating a LedgerLineSpanner-stencil-override: I'm able to address the note-heads without problems. Surprisingly Accidentals and Stems aren't moved, the LedgerLine isn't elongated (why not?), although I've used the same stencil-override-code for the note-heads. Disadvantage: I have to set \startStaff and \stopStaff which inserts some unwanted additional space. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \version "2.15.42" ls = \once \override Staff.LedgerLineSpanner #'stencil = #(lambda (grob) (let* ((stencil (ly:ledger-line-spanner::print grob)) (default-nh-stil (ly:note-head::print grob)) (new-nh-stil (grob-interpret-markup grob (markup #:box #:pad-markup 1.7 #:stencil default-nh-stil))) (note-head-grobs (ly:grob-array->list (ly:grob-object grob 'note-heads))) (nh-stencils (map! (lambda (x) (ly:grob-set-property! x 'stencil new-nh-stil)) note-head-grobs)) ) nh-stencils stencil)) %---test \relative c' { c4 a \stopStaff \ls \startStaff <cis e''>8[ aeses'] \stopStaff \revert Staff.LedgerLineSpanner #'stencil \startStaff <cis, e''>8 aeses \break c4 a <cis e''>8[ aeses'] <cis, e''>8 aeses } % I added layout and paper to facilitate comparing the lines. \paper { indent = 0 } \layout { \context { \Staff \override TimeSignature #'stencil = #empty-stencil } } %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Questions: How to avoid or reduce the additional space? Am I using the side-effects of a bug? Or is a completely other approach overriding NoteHead-stencils thinkable?
