Hi Dirck,
E.g.:
\version "2.24.3"
#(define (parenthesize-dot parentheses-item)
(let* ((dot (ly:grob-object (ly:grob-parent parentheses-item Y) 'dot)))
(if (not (null? dot))
(begin
(set! (ly:grob-object parentheses-item 'elements) '())
(ly:grob-set-property! parentheses-item 'padding 0)
(ly:pointer-group-interface::add-grob parentheses-item 'elements dot)
(ly:stencil-translate-axis
(parentheses-interface::print parentheses-item) 0 X))
(parentheses-interface::print parentheses-item))))
parenthesizeDot =
\tweak Parentheses.stencil #(lambda (grob) (parenthesize-dot grob))
\parenthesize \etc
{
\stemDown <e' \parenthesizeDot e''>4.
}
#(define (parenthesize-dot parentheses-item)
(let* ((dot (ly:grob-object (ly:grob-parent parentheses-item Y) 'dot)))
(if (not (null? dot))
(begin
(set! (ly:grob-object parentheses-item 'elements) '())
(ly:grob-set-property! parentheses-item 'padding 0)
(ly:pointer-group-interface::add-grob parentheses-item 'elements dot)
(ly:stencil-translate-axis
(parentheses-interface::print parentheses-item) 0 X))
(parentheses-interface::print parentheses-item))))
parenthesizeDot =
\tweak Parentheses.stencil #(lambda (grob) (parenthesize-dot grob))
\parenthesize \etc
{
\stemDown <e' \parenthesizeDot e''>4.
}
HTH, cheers,
Pierre

Hi all
I know this is highly unusual, but is there a way to add parentheses around the DOT ONLY after the notehead?
see following image:
FYI, I have a piece with sequences of octaves. Every instance has a note value of a dotted quarter-note.
There is, however, one (only one!) instance where the upper note cannot be held the full value, because it would be physically impossible to play. I want to avoid splitting this into separate voices because it would clutter up the measure, (would require 4 separate voices on one staff) and make reading more cumbersome.
thanks!
