Re: Segmented beam to avoid collision

[Javier Ruiz-Alma]

Thank You! 

I used a filled-box and played around with the layers to partially cover the beam, but not other grobs.

I'm stuck figuring out how to avoid the box covering staff lines.

Here's the layer assignments I have:

  \override Beam.layer = #0

  \override Stem.layer = #3

  \override Accidental.layer = #3

  \override NoteHead.layer = #15

  \override StaffSymbol.layer = #3

  \override TextScript.layer = #1

How do I refer specifically to the staff lines to assign a later layer?

Below is URL to the full piece, attached is the sample where the filled-box covers beam and staff-lines.

Maybe I have to add that, if the extra-offset is problematic for you, simply put :

[...]
\once\override TextScript.outside-staff-priority = ##f

\once\override TextScript.Y-offset = #-1

[...]

instead.

Cheers,
