That would be this command I guess: > Command: Custom Barline Create a custom barline. These can be named, or can simply override a standard LilyPond bar line type. A bar line is defined by four forms, which describe 1) the appearance normally (during a line), 2) appearance when the barline is at the beginning or 3) end of a line , and 4) what to show when joining staffs together as with a Piano Staff. Barline forms are made of characters including |,:,.,[,],: and others in the LilyPond documentation. Location: Object Menu ▶ Score ▶ Typesetter Internal Name: CustomBarline I just tried it, taking all the default responses. It created this syntax (in the LilyPond window) \defineBarLine "|-A" #'("|" "|" "|") BarA = \bar "|-A" I tried it out by inserting the LilyPond syntax "\BarA" between two notes (using Directives->Insert LilyPond) and got this f'2 f'4 \BarA \tuplet 3/2 { f'8 f' f' } > So it seems the help for this command is inadequate, and in any case it would seem to be a good idea if the command created a command to insert the newly-created type of barline. I have submitted a bug report about this. Thank you for reporting this bug. If you need help creating a particular barline please ask.
