TextSpanner objects are created by: Dynamic_engraver, New_dynamic_engraver and Text_spanner_engraver.
Standard settings:
Y-offset
(number):ly:side-position-interface::y-aligned-side
The vertical amount that this object is moved relative to its Y-parent.
font-shape
(symbol):'italic
Select the shape of a font. Choices include
upright
,italic
,caps
.style
(symbol):'dashed-line
This setting determines in what style a grob is typeset. Valid choices depend on the
stencil
callback reading this property.staff-padding
(dimension, in staff space):0.8
Maintain this much space between reference points and the staff. Its effect is to align objects of differing sizes (like the dynamics p and f) on their baselines.
dash-fraction
(number):0.2
Size of the dashes, relative to
dash-period
. Should be between0.0
(no line) and1.0
(continuous line).dash-period
(number):3.0
The length of one dash together with whitespace. If negative, no line is drawn at all.
side-axis
(number):1
If the value is
#X
(or equivalently0
), the object is placed horizontally next to the other object. If the value is#Y
or1
, it is placed vertically.direction
(direction):1
If
side-axis
is0
(or#X
), then this property determines whether the object is placed#LEFT
,#CENTER
or#RIGHT
with respect to the other object. Otherwise, it determines whether the object is placed#UP
,#CENTER
or#DOWN
. Numerical values may also be used:#UP
=1
,#DOWN
=-1
,#LEFT
=-1
,#RIGHT
=1
,#CENTER
=0
.outside-staff-priority
(number):350
If set, the grob is positioned outside the staff in such a way as to avoid all collisions. In case of a potential collision, the grob with the smaller
outside-staff-priority
is closer to the staff.left-bound-info
(list):ly:line-spanner::calc-left-bound-info
An alist of properties for determining attachments of spanners to edges.
right-bound-info
(list):ly:line-spanner::calc-right-bound-info
An alist of properties for determining attachments of spanners to edges.
bound-details
(list):'((left (Y . 0) (padding . 0.25) (attach-dir . -1)) (right (Y . 0) (padding . 0.25)))
An alist of properties for determining attachments of spanners to edges.
stencil
(unknown):ly:line-spanner::print
The symbol to print.
This object supports the following interface(s): spanner-interface, side-position-interface, line-spanner-interface, font-interface and grob-interface.
