Hi David,
sorry for the late reply.
My time for working on/with LilyPond is eaten up by a large amount of
non-LilyPond projects and problems those days.
e.g.: Yesterday a tree in my garden toppled down on my neighbour's house.
(@David Kastrup: An own garden isn't a pleasure all the time.)
But I wish to express my deepest gratefulness for your effort working on this.
Perhaps you noticed my posts on -devel about new barlines. There you
can find a `make-dashed-bar-line'-definition very close to
`make-dashed-system-start-bar'. It was very difficult to develop it so
far, but your idea for the dashed-stems gave my the essential push for
a first, more or less successful try.
Because there are small but noticeable shifts of the dashes depending
on global-staff-size and/or the distances of the staffs, I'm not
really happy with that definition.
So any improvement for the dashed SystemStartBar would be of great
help for the barline-project.
My own attempts were not succesful so far. :(
Thanks again and best wishes,
Harm
