3.1.121 SpanBar

A span bar, i.e., the parts of a multi-staff bar line that are outside of staves. See also SpanBarStub.

SpanBar objects are created by: Span_bar_engraver.

Standard settings:

allow-span-bar (boolean):

#t

If false, no inter-staff bar line will be created below this bar line.

bar-extent (pair of numbers):

#<unpure-pure-container #<procedure ly:axis-group-interface::height (_)> #<procedure ly:axis-group-interface::pure-height (_ _ _)> >

The Y-extent of the actual bar line. This may differ from Y-extent because it does not include the dots in a repeat bar line.

before-line-breaking (boolean):

ly:span-bar::before-line-breaking

Dummy property, used to trigger a callback function.

break-align-anchor (number):

ly:span-bar::calc-anchor

Grobs aligned to this breakable item will have their X-offsets shifted by this number. In bar lines, for example, this is used to position grobs relative to the (visual) center of the bar line.

break-align-symbol (symbol):

'staff-bar

This key is used for aligning, ordering, and spacing breakable items. See break-alignment-interface.

glyph-name (string):

ly:span-bar::calc-glyph-name

The glyph name within the font.

In the context of (span) bar lines, glyph-name represents a processed form of glyph, where decisions about line breaking, etc., are already taken.

layer (integer):

0

An integer which determines the order of printing objects. Objects with the lowest value of layer are drawn first, then objects with progressively higher values are drawn, so objects with higher values overwrite objects with lower values. By default most objects are assigned a layer value of 1.

non-musical (boolean):

#t

True if the grob belongs to a NonMusicalPaperColumn.

stencil (stencil):

ly:span-bar::print

The symbol to print.

X-extent (pair of numbers):

ly:span-bar::width

Extent (size) in the X direction, measured in staff-space units, relative to object’s reference point.

Y-extent (pair of numbers):
'(+inf.0 . -inf.0)

Extent (size) in the Y direction, measured in staff-space units, relative to object’s reference point.

This object supports the following interface(s): bar-line-interface, break-aligned-interface, font-interface, grob-interface, item-interface and span-bar-interface.

This object is of class Item (characterized by item-interface).
