hi again,
i'm using cmn to manuscript one of my own pieces now, and i'm noticing
something strange about glissando. for an upward gliss, the line begins
at the top of the start note's notehead and ends at the bottom of the
destination's notehead - which would be fine, except that in glisses of
one step up (a line to its adjacent space, say) the line itself slants
down. the opposite case happens with downward glisses.
(cmn (free-expansion-factor 2.5)
(treble)
(e4 q (begin-glissando))
(f4 q (end-glissando))
(g4 q (begin-glissando))
(f4 q (end-glissando)))
it really seems like the gliss line should be drawn from the center of
the notehead in either case. how would i go about changing this behavior?
... and thanks very much to Anders for his help with the generic bracket
object. the stem-direction compensation fixed the problem i was having
with that.
thanks,
bill
