Re: Regtest "dynamics-broken-hairpin.ly"

Agreed.  We had a grand regtest rating project about 3 years ago, and my 
comment was that "I don`t see a broken crescendo.".  However, it was so hard 
to make general improvements to the regtests that I did not follow most up 
any further.

I'm assuming you could add this as an issue, but not follow up with a fix to 
git?

Hello,

forgive if this should be an unnecessary question, but: does this
regtest do what it should?
The description says:

\header{
texidoc = "Broken crescendi should be open on one side."
}

but the code reads

\relative {
  c''1 \< \break c1\!  \> \break c1\!
}

so each hairpin actually ends before line break and there are no broken
hairpins IIUC.

It’s somewhat self-contradictory here: To match the regtest title, I’d
use some code like

\relative {
  c''1 \< \break
  c
  c\> \break
  c
  c\!
}

(output attached)
– but, quite correctly, the ‘inner’ broken parts are open to both sides.

So, whatever this regtest was designed for, either it needs a clearer
description or different code.

Best regards, Simon
