Re: Guitar palm mutes - almost done

Thanks a lot. I followed your suggestion for the extender lines and it solved the issue.

BTW, I have completed the PM snippet and it works nicely. I'll share it after I have it tested some more.

Anyone interested?

You’re almost there: omit the bound-details, i. e.

-\tweak dash-fraction #0
-\tweak dash-period #0

PM = -\tweak staff-padding #6

      _\markup  {
        \tiny \fontsize #-1 \halign #-0.5 "P.M."

      }

and then use it as d\PM instead of d_\PM
