Moving the ends of hairpins
The ends of hairpins may be offset by setting the shorten-pair
property of the Hairpin
object. Positive values move endpoints
to the right, negative to the left. Unlike the minimum-length
property, this property only affects the appearance of the hairpin; it
does not adjust horizontal spacing (including the position of bounding
dynamics). This method is thus suitable for fine-tuning a hairpin
within its allotted space.
