Re: spanner and epsfile

[Bernardo Barros]

Sorry, It's actually quite easy (see snippet).

I'm still trying to figure out my other question, how to have 
inter-penetrating spanners, or rather, how to have one spanner parallel 
to another without conflict?

I can imagine two solutions:

1) Two or more voices, one with all notes hidden. Ugly solution.

2) Another function that behaves exactly like TextSpanner, but with 
another name, e.g. \startBowPositionSpanner or \startBowPressureSpanner, 
&c., not conflicting with each other. Possible?


\relative c'' {
  \override TextSpanner.bound-padding = #1.0
  \override TextSpanner.style = #'line
  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.right.arrow = ##t
%  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.left.text = #"mst" % an EPS file here
  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.left.text = \markup { \epsfile #X 
#3 #"drawing.eps" }
\override TextSpanner.bound-details.right.text = #"msp" % another one here
  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.right.padding = #0.6

  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.right.stencil-align-dir-y = #CENTER
  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.left.stencil-align-dir-y = #CENTER
