Re: Slur as TupletBracket

i <3 hacks

\version "2.15.12"

\relative c'' {

 \override TupletBracket #'stencil = #ly:slur::print

 \override TupletBracket #'direction = #UP

 \override TupletNumber #'whiteout = ##t

 \override TupletNumber #'layer = #2

 \override TupletBracket #'layer = #1

 \override TupletNumber #'Y-offset = #(lambda (grob) (+ 0.5 (ly:tuplet-number::calc-y-offset grob)))

 \override TupletBracket #'control-points =

#(lambda (grob)

  (let ((x-pos (ly:grob-property grob 'X-positions))

        (pos (ly:grob-property grob 'positions)))

    (list (cons (car x-pos) (car pos))

          (cons (+ (car x-pos) (/ (interval-length x-pos) 3)) (+ (car pos) 0.5))

          (cons (+ (car x-pos) (* (interval-length x-pos) 2/3)) (+ (cdr pos) 0.5))

          (cons (cdr x-pos) (cdr pos)))))

\repeat unfold 10 \times 2/3 { a4 b4 c }

}

To be messed with to your heart's content :)

This'll only work in one of the more recent development versions, as X-positions is a new addition to LilyPond.

Cheers,

I'm trying to replace the tuplet bracket with a slur by doing:

  \layout {
    \context {
      \Score 
      \override TupletBracket #'stencil = #ly:slur::print
    }
  }

Unfortunately, I get a fucked up slur, starting and ending vertically on 
the first note of the triplet (version 2.12.3):

Is it broken or am I doing it wrong?

Best regards,

Jethro.

Lilypond goes ignorant with tuplet brackets in style of a slur.

Switching to slur::print will require you add three control points for the slur

to manually define the curve:

\override TupletBracket #'control-points = #'( ( 4.5284 . 4.166) ( 6.521 . 4.89) ( 8.9664 . 4.619) ( 10.415 . 2.717) )

Another side-effect of this option is collision avoidance is disabled, and

you'll likely need to also tweak the the TupletNumber offset with command like:

\override TupletNumber #'extra-offset = #'(2.2 . -1.4 )
