Re: Including Rests in Horizontal Brackets

[Pierre Perol-Schneider]

Hi Sam,

This is not nice, but it works :

\version "2.19.28"

#(ly:set-option 'warning-as-error #f)
#(ly:expect-warning (_ "barcheck failed at: 1/2"))

\layout {
  \context {
    \Voice
    \consists "Horizontal_bracket_engraver"
  }
}

\relative c'' {
  \override HorizontalBracket.direction = #UP
  g1\startGroup |
  e |
  R |
  R |
  R2 \once\hideNotes r\stopGroup |
  %get the bracket to extend and "include" this final rest
}

Cheers,

Pierre

Hi everyone,

In the attached MWE, I'm hoping to extend the horizontal bracket to the
right to include the three remaining whole rests.

As it is, Lily is smart enough (darn it...) to stop the bracket at the
final notated pitch; but can I force the bracket to extend, or will I
have to come up with another solution to make the bracket?

Obviously I could do it with a hidden second voice, but as the real
example includes lyrics, etc., I was hoping for a friendlier solution.

Thanks as ever,

Sam
