Hello all, I'm trying to adjust the length (not /size/, per se) of the espressivo markings in this particular score and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
I've checked out a previous thread here: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Changing-hairpin-size-in-espressivo-td21181.html ...however, that override solution seems to increase the overall size of the hairpins, not simply /elongate /them (horizontally only). Ideally I would love to be able to make my espressivo markings just a little bit longer without making them increase in height/size as well. The images I attached show a) how the hairpin is too large for what I'm trying to achieve using the override; b) the default LilyPond espressivo size; and c) ideally what I am trying to do. Is there a way to only elongate/stretch espressivo markings similar to how a normal hairpin would appear generally? Could someone help me with this? Thank you for any help, much appreciated.
