Hi Ben,

How would you suggest I go about creating the bracket markings that separate 
big sections, like in a piece with two orchestras or similar?
Create a custom StaffGroup context.

ideally I'd prefer the circle symbol in the bracket to always be centered 
alongside the staff group
The InstrumentName is center-able — override it.  =)

Hope that helps!

Hey Kieren!

Thanks for getting me started. I did consider going the path of custom StaffGroup context but didn't understand how to get a circle symbol to actually /intersect/ the bracket as in the attached image, centered.

Are you suggesting that I make the "instrument name" a circle symbol? :) Hmm, that sounds like magic to me...hehe.

At the moment I'm still trying to see how I can create the bracket itself, then I'll tackle the middle symbol I guess.
