Hi everybody. I'm using horizontal brackets in a piece I'm transcribing, with bracket-flare set to 0. I would like the bracket symbols to start a bit before the first note and end a bit after the last (let's say a bit = about the length of the head of a quarter note).
E.g. in the following piece i would like the bracket to start a quarter-note-head-length before c' and end a quarter-note-head-length after d'. \new Voice \with { \consists Horizontal_bracket_engraver \override HorizontalBracket #'bracket-flare = #'(0 . 0) } { c'2 \startGroup d'2\stopGroup } I played around with the properties of HorizontalBracket and its interfaces, but I couldn't achieve the result I want. I am using the latest stable version (2.14.2), but I can switch to latest unstable if needed. I would be grateful if anybody could help me. Best wishes, Davide Liessi P.S. I should mention that I am also using the code provided by harm6 in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2011-09/msg00196.html because I had the same problem as Trevor Bača. This is however irrelevant: I did my tests with and without harm6's solution. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
