Re: zigzag staffline

[Gagi Petrovic]

Hi David, yes indeed. A zigzag or a trillspan-kind-of line would also suffice.

Thank you for your tip, seems like it's time for me to dive more deeply into this matter. When i look at the code i understand it only roughly, i will need some time for this. So if anyone has any tips for reading material / code about creating StaffSymbols, please share them.

Thanks and all the best, Gagi

So the middle line of the 3-line staff will actually be replaced with
a zigzag line?  I'm not aware of doing something like that with a
simple override.  I would imagine that you'd have to build up a new
StaffSymbol from the ground up.  There's a snippet in the LSR which
colors individual lines, and that might be something to look at and
adapt to your needs.  Unfortunately, I don't have time right now to
work on it.
