Hi all,

I wrote a piece for piano that I'm now typesetting in Lilypond.
However, there's a construction in which I run into problems. I've
attached an snippet that shows a bit what I need (it's the same bar
twice); the triplets in the left hand are connected to a chord, but
the highest notes are played by the right hand. Adding a staff change
in the triplets is no problem (see the second bar), but that won't
work in a chord: I tried:

Is there any way to achieve this?
Below is the code for the attached snippet.

Often music engravers will use an L-shaped bracket to indicate
hand-distributions that contradict the note-placement within the
staves. Off the top of my head, I can't think of an easy way to
do this in LilyPond without abusing commands, but visually, that's
the engraving approach I would recommend in this case. Perhaps I
can look into a way of doing this. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Ah, I think you mean something like this? http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/input/lsr/lilypond-snippets/Keyboards#Indicating-cross_002dstaff-chords-with-arpeggio-bracket

I know the L-shaped form, too; probably one can adapt the solution from the snippet above and cut out a piece of the bracket... But yeah, sounds like work...


Cheers,
Alexander
