Carl,

I did not notice the rounded ends - now zooming in I see them!

So yes, it is enough to make the barre thickness configurable.

Thanks,

        Stefan

      Dear Carl,

      thanks for your response. I think it would be worthwhile to have
      the last
      fret plotting and barre width configurable. I am happy to help,
      just not
      sure how useful I can be (never worked with scheme).

      If I remove the dots at first fret on string 1 and 5, I see that
      the
      barre-line ends right at the string position. I'd prefer if it
      would
      extend a little to the left and right - if the barre line had
      the full
      thickness of the dots, and one would leave the dots in, this
      would probably
      do. Which brings us back to the necessity to configure the barre
      line thickness.


The line has rounded ends.  The rounding radius is half the line thickness.

In the current implementation the barre line thickness is the dot radius, so
the radius of the line is half the dot radius.

If the thickness of the barre line were the dot diameter, the radius would
be the dot radius, and the line would show up as if it had the dots on the
end.

So you can still ignore the dots and just increase the barre thickness.

HTH,

Carl
