New issue 889 by v.villenave: SystemStartBrace's variable vertical extent should not affect their weight
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=889 New report from Jonathan Wilkes: In the following example, the weight of the braces don't match. If you uncomment staves 4 and 5 you'll see how distracting such a huge, thick brace would be in an orchestral setting (grouping the strings together, for example). \score { << \new PianoStaff { << \new Staff { c } \new Staff { c } >> } \new PianoStaff { << \new Staff = "one" { c } \new Staff = "two" { c } \new Staff = "three" { c } % \new Staff = "four" { c } % \new Staff = "five" { c } >> } >> } A solution would be to vertically stretch braces (instead of scaling them, which is the current behavior). An example of a vertically stretched brace may be found on http://imslp.info/files/imglnks/usimg/d/dd/IMSLP00510-Debussy_-_Preludes__Book_2.pdf (though French publishers are hardly a good example when it comes to music scores).
