Re: drawing a line between a note and a syllabe

[Germain G. Ivanoff-Trinadtzaty]

Exactly so : how to create a new engraver (?) say 
"Span_follow_line_engraver" or "Span_line_engraver" that would depend on a 
NoteColumn (context "Voice") and a syllabe (context "Lyrics") ?

Thanks for pointing me to Span_arpeggio_engraver / arpeggioBracket for the 
last case.

I know of no way to draw lines between notes and lyrics.  They are in
different contexts.  There may be a way to draw a line to a note whose
'stencil has been changed to #f.

Similarly, I know of no way to draw a bracket between notes and lyric lines.

Brackets from a note to a note of another staff can be drawn with a
cross-staff arpeggio, with the bracket style of arpeggio.

Hope this helps a little bit,
