The third I have done on a note-by-note basis in the past by extending the length of the stem on the lower staff until it connects to the one on the top. As for the other two, maybe I will experiment with writing some code to do this. I've always wanted to learn the internals better, and this would seem to be a good project to do so with (especially since I have been wanting these features myself). -- Michael Duggan ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
