3.1.128 VoltaBracket

VoltaBracket objects are created by: Volta_engraver.

Standard settings:

direction (direction):

1

If side-axis is 0 (or #X), then this property determines whether the object is placed #LEFT, #CENTER or #RIGHT with respect to the other object. Otherwise, it determines whether the object is placed #UP, #CENTER or #DOWN. Numerical values may also be used: #UP=1, #DOWN=-1, #LEFT=-1, #RIGHT=1, #CENTER=0.

edge-height (pair):

'(2.0 . 2.0)

A pair of numbers specifying the heights of the vertical edges: (left-height . right-height).

font-encoding (symbol):

'fetaText

The font encoding is the broadest category for selecting a font. Currently, only lilypond’s system fonts (Emmentaler) are using this property. Available values are fetaMusic (Emmentaler), fetaBraces, fetaText (Emmentaler).

font-size (number):

-4

The font size, compared to the ‘normal’ size. 0 is style-sheet’s normal size, -1 is smaller, +1 is bigger. Each step of 1 is approximately 12% larger; 6 steps are exactly a factor 2 larger. Fractional values are allowed.

stencil (stencil):

ly:volta-bracket-interface::print

The symbol to print.

thickness (number):

1.6

Line thickness, generally measured in line-thickness.

word-space (dimension, in staff space):

0.6

Space to insert between words in texts.

This object supports the following interface(s): font-interface, grob-interface, horizontal-bracket-interface, line-interface, side-position-interface, spanner-interface, text-interface, volta-bracket-interface and volta-interface.
