This was one of my pet peeves with Finale--having to endlessly adjust
dashed lines so they weren't ended by a dot (usually discovered on the
printout...)

I can't see any reason why LilyPond couldn't be enhanced to ensure that
this doesn't happen.

Yes, I think that the overall extent of the spanner should (optionally) be favored against the literal dash structure.

Actually LilyPond wouldn't (AFAICS) end the spanner with a dot, but rather with a gap (which isn't nice either).


In fact, there's a markup command \draw-dashed-line which guards against
these clipped edges.


You mean I should replace the TextSpanner by a custom \markup command?


Urs
