Re: drawing brackets spanning multiple staves - spacing issue

[Eby Mani]

Hi Kieren,

Thanks, your code draw the bracket on the second  beat of the measure, but i 
want the Bracket at the first beat of the bar.

Attached is the output of your code.

Is the placement of brackets different on recent version of lilypond ?.

 Hi Eby,
 
 I hope the attached modified version of your
 snippet helps.
 Note that I also made some
 other changes, to make the code more efficient, readable,
 etc.
 (Oh, and you should probably upgrade to
 a more recent version of Lilypond!)
 
 Cheers,
 Kieren.
