Hi Randy

Would you mind starting a new thread instead of replying to the 
existing thread?
Gmail users like you don't see the problem but everybody else gets 
mixed threads this way.


Thank you
Federico

Hi all,

What's the state of Lilypond's support for notating bends in guitar 
music? I've read ["The Story of 'String Bending' in Lilypond"][1] on 
the Lilypond blog, and that seemed promising, but it seems work on 
the new bend engraver has stopped.


I'm interested specifically in the angled lines that indicate bends 
in the regular staff, more or less like what is shown in the attached 
PDF (from [issue 1196][2] mentioned in the blog post).


If it's not there yet, I can always use some other notation to 
indicate bending---after all, I'm only using Lilypond to do some 
transcriptions and lead sheets for myself---but it would be a good 
feature. To me, it's also probably the only significant shortcoming 
of Lilypond.


Hoping for good news! If there's anything I can do to help, I'll do 
what I can, although my coding skills are kinda basic.


Regards,

Randy
