Tuplet_engraver

Catch Time_scaled_music and generate appropriate bracket

Properties


tupletNumberFormatFunction (procedure):
Function taking a music as input, producing a string. This function is called to determine the text to print on a tuplet bracket.
tupletSpannerDuration (moment):
Normally a tuplet bracket is as wide as the imes expression that gave rise to it. By setting this property, you can make brackets last shorter. Example
@lilypond[verbatim,fragment]
context Voice 	imes 2/3 {
  property Voice.tupletSpannerDuration = #(make-moment 1 4)
  [c8 c c] [c c c]
}
@end lilypond
.
tupletInvisible (boolean):
If set to true, tuplet bracket creation is switched off entirely. This has the same effect as setting both tupletNumberVisibility and tupletBracketVisibility to #f, but as this does not even create any grobs, this setting uses less memory and time.
This engraver creates the following grobs: TupletBracket.

Tuplet_engraver is part of contexts: Voice
