Re: Error is cross-bar arpeggios using times

[Mats Bengtsson]

This is clearly a bug. I thought that I had seen it already reported in the
bug tracker, but I cannot find exactly this one. Oscar, the next time you
report a bug, please provide a small but complete example file, see
http://lilypond.org/web/devel/participating/bugs.
I have extended your lines to the following complete example, which
shows that cross-staff tuplets don't work well.

\version "2.11.40"
<<
 \new Staff = upper { s2 }
 \new Staff = lower \new Voice \relative c' {
   \times 8/7 { es32 g bes es  \change Staff = upper g bes es}
   \times 8/7 { g es bes g \change Staff = lower es bes g}
 }
>>
\layout{ragged-right = ##t }

Waiting for the bug to be fixed, you can workaround it manually, by
tweaking the positions property (and also the edge-height, comment
out that setting to realize why):
\version "2.11.40"
<<
 \new Staff = upper { s2 }
 \new Staff = lower \new Voice \relative c' {
   \once \override TupletBracket #'positions = #'(8 . 16)
   \times 8/7 { es32 g bes es  \change Staff = upper g bes es}
   \once \override TupletBracket #'positions = #'(8 . 2)
   \once \override TupletBracket #'edge-height = #'(-0.7 . -0.7)
   \times 8/7 { g es bes g \change Staff = lower es bes g}

 }
>>
\layout{ragged-right = ##t }
