Re: pitched note annotation

[Pierre Perol-Schneider]

Hi Orm,

To show what I mean, the following snippet gives the desired result:

%<---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\version "2.19.5"

{ < g' >16 \sf \new CueVoice { \once \override ParenthesesItem.font-size = #4
  \once\override Stem.transparent = ##t
  \parenthesize f'4*0 _\markup { \fontsize #-4 "(Klang)" } } r8. }

I think using stem transparency  could give you some strange results.
Better use \once\omit Stem

 

Is there a better (canoncial) way to attach a parenthesized pitch
indicator to a note?

Try :
 
\version "2.19.5"

{
  < g' >16 \sf
  \new CueVoice \with {
    \override InstrumentSwitch.direction = #DOWN
    instrumentCueName = \markup { \fontsize #-4 "(Klang)" }
  } 
  {
    \once\omit Stem
    \tweak ParenthesesItem.font-size #0
    \parenthesize f'4*0 
  }
  r8.
}

HTH,
Pierre
