Dear list!

I’m all new to lily pond and trying to create a custom spanner (a couple of
parallel lines connecting some of the holes of two fingering charts). To
hack this together I would need the length of the spanner I’m modifying or
replacing. I’ve put this piece of code together to extract it and can’t
understand what mistake I’ve made:

\version "2.18.2"
\relative c'' {
  \once \override TextSpanner.stencil =
  #(lambda (grob)
     (let (grob-X (interval-length (ly:stencil-extent (ly:grob-property
grob 'stencil) X)))
       (make-line-stencil .2 1 1 grob-X 4)
       )
     )
  d \startTextSpan
  c b
  a \stopTextSpan
}


I attempted to abstract it from this piece of code

Do you have any other sources or better suggestions for custom spanners?
This doesn’t have to be very complex or be able to cover line breaks.

Thanks a lot!
