Folks,
I'm trying to work around an old problem of broken ties in tightly setted music: They can degenerate to a dot, having no horizontal extensions anymore. Following the example in section `Difficult tweaks' of the notation reference (with slight changes to change the property for all siblings but the first one), I tried this: #(define (set-minimum-length grob) (let* ((orig (ly:grob-original grob)) (siblings (if (ly:grob? orig) (ly:spanner-broken-into orig) '()))) (if (and (> (length siblings) 1) (not (eq? (car siblings) grob))) (ly:grob-set-property! grob 'minimum-length 20)))) \paper { indent = 0 line-width = 50\mm ragged-right = #f } { \override Tie.after-line-breaking = #set-minimum-length c''1 ~ \break c''1 } However, this has no effect. I guess this is because because the `after-line-breaking' callback is invoked too late in the formatting process. Is there a possibility to make this work?
