Someone helped with fixing the 8va so it didn't repeat 8va after the line break. However, it is producing a solid line where the 8va is, but only in this one place:
\version "2.22.1"
upper = {
#(define (my-callback grob)
(let* (
; have we been split?
(orig (ly:grob-original grob))
; if yes, get the split pieces (our siblings)
(siblings (if (ly:grob? orig)
(ly:spanner-broken-into orig) '() )))
(if (and (>= (length siblings) 2)
(not (eq? (car siblings) grob)))
(ly:grob-set-property! grob 'text #f)
(ly:grob-set-property! grob 'stencil (ly:ottava-bracket::print grob)))))
\time 5/4
\override Staff.OttavaBracket.after-line-breaking = #my-callback
dis'''8\( \ottava #1 <dis''' dis''''> 8 < ais'' ais''' >2 ~ < ais'' ais''' >\) |
\ottava #0
\time 6/8
\tempo \markup { \concat { "Like a lullaby" \hspace #0.75 \general-align #Y #DOWN \note {8} #UP
" = "
\hspace #0.5
ca. \hspace #0.5 "100"
}
}
% \once \override TextScript.Y-offset = #-5
\time 6/8
dis'''4. _\markup {\dynamic mp {\italic dolce } } \( ~ dis'''8 gis''4 |
}
lower = {
\clef treble
<gis' cis'' dis'' e'' >2. ~ <gis' cis'' dis'' e'' > 2
\time 6/8
fis'8\( b ais dis' ais b \) |
}
\score {
\new PianoStaff {
<<
\set PianoStaff.instrumentName = #"Piano"
\new Staff = "upper"{ \upper \autoBeamOff }
\new Staff = " lower" \lower
>>
}
\layout {
}
}
I'm not sure if I need to later the scheme code in some way to make it dotted again. Any suggestions?
