Works great and got me into trying to apply it on my use-case (display of hymns
including melody in presentation slides), but I end up with visual ugliness it
triggers for end-of-line barlines which then appear in the middle of the staff
at the end of the music. I’d like to know whether that can be solved as well.
For the regular measure bars I don’t mind it that much, I’m fine with
overriding the default measure bar with an overrride that does not print
end-of-line for my purposes as in
\defineBarLine "|-noeol" #'(#f #f #f)
and
\layout {
\context { \Staff
\override StaffSymbol.width = #(lambda (grob) (ly:output-def-lookup
(ly:grob-layout grob) 'line-width))
measureBarType = "|-noeol"
}
}
However for the typical closing barline at the end of a piece ( \bar “|.” ) I
would like to keep it visible, but have it appear at the end of the staff-line
rather than the end of the music.
