glissando/accidental

2005-08-16 Thread Graham Percival
Here's one of the bugs database; the glissando line doesn't stop before an accidental. I don't consider it a very serious bug, though. Workaround: \once \override Glissando #'gap = #0.5 \once \override Glissando #'extra-offset = #'(-0.5 . 0) produces a gliss which does an (IMO) acceptable
