Hello Everyone,
I would like to add a custom grob to my list of available bar lines. I am
currently doing the following to create custom bar lines.
%Define the new stencil
repeatLeftStencil =
#(ly:make-stencil
`(path 0.5
`(rmoveto 0 -2
rlineto 0 4
rlineto 1 2
rmoveto -1 -6
rlineto 1 -2
))
(cons -0.5 2)
(cons -4 4))
%assign the stencil to a variable
repeatLeft = { \once \override Staff.BarLine #'stencil = \repeatLeftStencil }
So then when I want to use the custom grob I just insert \repeatLeft
before the \bar "|" and it overrides the default barline.
What I would prefer to do would be to define the shorthand \bar "|\" (or
something like that) to call my custom grob instead of having to override
it each time I want to use it.
Could anyone direct me to documentation on how I would go about adding my
custom grob to the list of available barline types?
Thanks so much,
Carl
