I find that tenuto lines in Lilypond are rather too thin and short. With the help of this list, as well as the Lilypond documentation, I am gradually starting to understand more about how Lilypond functions. So I was reasonably confident that I could at least increase the font size of tenuto lines to see if this would give me a satisfactory combination of length and thickness.
I had a couple of false starts, because I found it difficult to determine what the name of the relevant grob was. But eventually, having decided that the name is, in fact 'Script', I was almost certain that this was going to work: { \tweak Script.font-size #6 g-- } But it completely fails to change the tenuto line. I see that the Snippets document has a couple of ways I could achieve what I want, and they might be a better bet in any case for practical reasons in the coding. But why doesn't '\tweak Script.font-size' work?
