Re: Parentheses overrides

[Pierre Perol-Schneider]

Hi James,

I understand the idea but I thing you missunderstand the X-extent effect.

If I follow you, you'd rather extent the note head.

So here it goes :

\version "2.19.15"

parenWider = {
  \once\override NoteHead.X-extent = #'(-1.5 . 1.3)
  \once\override Accidental.X-extent = #'(1.5 . 0)
  \once\override Accidental.extra-offset = #'(1.5 . 0)
}

\score {
  \new Staff { \parenWider \parenthesize fis'4 }
}

HTH,
Pierre

Hi all,

I"m trying to widen the parentheses so the left brace doesn't collide with the sharp. The code I'm trying isn't working. Is this possible?

\version "2.19.15"

parenWider = {

  \once \override ParenthesesItem #'X-extent = #'(-8 . 0)

}

\score {

  \new Staff { \parenWider \parenthesize fis'4 }

}

Thanks,

James Worlton
