Comment #1 on issue 2571 by [email protected]: tuplet bracket starts to late
when the expression starts with a spacer
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2571
Stupid question: when would you even start such an expression with a spacer
rest?
At any rate, a spacer rest, in contrast to a hidden rest, does _not_ take
up any physical space, so I consider the example inconclusive. It becomes
more interesting if you add a second voice, like
\new Staff { \time 3/4 << { c''4 c'' c'' } \\ { \times 2/3{ s4 c' e'} r4 }
}
In this case, the bracket should arguably encompass the (now non-empty)
note column to the left. However, it begs the question why one would not
start with a visible rest in the first place.
Can you provide an example where this would make sense? While I lean
towards expected behavior being a wider span, I am not sure I see an actual
application.
