RE: Vertical brackets with text around chords

[Mark Stephen Mrotek]

Ryan,

A discussion of this is at:
http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Left-hand-right-hand-editorial-annotat
ion-td161987.html

Below is a code to do this, I cannot remember who produced it and posted it
on the list.

% Hand indicators
%   Note: To use these correctly, the note MUST be part of a chord, even
%   if it's by itself, using, for example, the following syntax:
%
%   \set fingeringOrientations = #'(left)
%   <c\finger \lhMark>  % or \lhMarkText to add "l.h." to the mark
%
lhMarkText = \markup { 
\concat {
\override #'(font-encoding . latin1) \italic "l.h. " 
\path #0.1 #'((moveto 0 -0.5)(rlineto 0 1.5)(rlineto 0.5 0))
 }}
rhMarkText = \markup { 
\concat {
\override #'(font-encoding . latin1) \italic "r.h. " 
\path #0.1 #'((moveto 0 1)(rlineto 0 -1.5)(rlineto 0.5 0))
}}
lhMark = \markup { 
\path #0.1 #'((moveto -1 0)(rlineto 0 1.5)(rlineto 0.5 0))
}
rhMark = \markup { 
\path #0.1 #'((moveto -1 0)(rlineto 0 -1.5)(rlineto 0.5 0))
}
\relative c'' {
c4-1 
d-2 
\set fingeringOrientations = #'(left)
<c\finger \lhMarkText f>\finger \markup \tied-lyric #"4~3" <c\finger
\rhMark>\finger "2 - 3"}
}

Subject: Vertical brackets with text around chords

I'm engraving music for a client and am currently working on the piano part.
He has a chord in one voice that he brackets what hands should play what
notes. How exactly could I make this work in LilyPond 2.18?

Thanks all!
