Hello Urs,
it’s very handy that you just came up with this thread, since I’m
needing the very thing in a score I just do.
I wrote an event function to nicely wrap up your approach:
%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.19.32"
hook =
#(let ((direction? (lambda (n) (= 1 (abs n))))
(hook-markup #{ \markup \path #0.175 #'((moveto 0 0)
(rlineto -0.85 0)
(rlineto 0 3)) #}))
(define-event-function (direction on-line) (direction? boolean?)
(let* ((self-al (if on-line 0.6 0.31))
(self-al (if (= direction 1) (- self-al) self-al)))
#{
\tweak self-alignment-Y $self-al
\tweak extra-spacing-width #'(-.5 . 0)
\finger \markup \scale #(cons 1 direction) #hook-markup
#})))
\layout {
\context {
\Voice
fingeringOrientations = #'(left)
}
}
{
<c''-\hook #DOWN ##f> <d''-\hook #UP ##t>
}
%%%%%%%%%%
It’s not quite elegant with its hard-coded values, but it’s easy to use.
Thanks for the ideas,
Simon

Hi all,
please consider the attached image, especially the "half-bracket" at the
center. This is to indicate that this d' is to be played with the
left hand.
Is there anything I could improve to the proportions and placement of
that sign?
Any suggestions for improvement welcome. Suggestions for *not* improving
it even more ;-)
I agree that it looks quite good, and that the vertical part should be
shorter. Also, the horizontal part could be longer in my eyes.
And I’d be very interested in how you did it :-)
I use a very simple \path. Originally I simply added it as a \markup and
used extra-offset to position it. But thanks to Abraham's blog post I
changed that to use a fingering indication. However, I'm not really sure
this is more reliable (for example against transposition):
So this is what it looks like now:
\set fingeringOrientations = #'(left)
<d'' \finger
\markup {
\path #0.175
#'((moveto 0 -2)
(rlineto 0 3)
(rlineto 0.85 0)
(moveto -1.5 2)) } > 8
Urs
Yours, Simon
