I'm trying to shorten a decrescendo hairpin so it stops before the breath
mark, which is printed just before the barline. I attempted using the
Lilypond override tweak: \once \override Hairpin.shorten-pair = #'(0 . 4)
I inserted the Lilypond directive just before the note that initiates the
decrescendo hairpin. Most specifically, I placed the cursor on the barline
before the first note the begins the decrescendo hairpin, followed by the
insertion of the Lilypond directive referenced above. I also tried by
inserting the directive on the note that initiates the decrescendo hairpin.
Neither of the two attempts produced the desired outcome. I'm grateful for
any suggestions. Thank you!
For your reference, I'm including the snippet from the Lilypond's manual
below:
* Moving the ends of hairpins*
The ends of hairpins may be offset by setting the shorten-pair property of
the Hairpin object. Positive values move endpoints to the right, negative
to the left. Unlike the minimum-length property, this property only affects
the appearance of the hairpin; it does not adjust horizontal spacing
(including the position of bounding dynamics). This method is thus suitable
for fine-tuning a hairpin within its allotted space.

c'2~ c'\!
\once \override Hairpin.shorten-pair = #'(2 . 2)

\once \override Hairpin.shorten-pair = #'(-2 . -2)

c'2~ c'\!
c'1~\p-\tweak shorten-pair #'(2 . 0)\<
