3.1.8 AmbitusNoteHead

A note head in an Ambitus.

AmbitusNoteHead objects are created by the following engraver(s): Ambitus_engraver.

Standard settings:

duration-log (integer):

2

The 2-log of the note head duration, i.e., 0 = whole note, 1 = half note, etc.

glyph-name (string):

note-head::calc-glyph-name

The glyph name within the font.

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

ignore-ambitus (boolean):

#t

If set, don’t consider this notehead for ambitus calculation.

stencil (stencil):

ly:note-head::print

The symbol to print.

Y-extent (pair of numbers):

#<unpure-pure-container ly:grob::stencil-height >

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

Y-offset (number):

#<unpure-pure-container ly:staff-symbol-referencer::callback >

The vertical amount that this object is moved relative to its Y-parent.

Note that many objects have special positioning considerations, which cause any setting of Y-offset to be ignored or modified, even though the object supports the self-alignment-interface.

This object supports the following interface(s): ambitus-interface, font-interface, grob-interface, item-interface, ledgered-interface, note-head-interface and staff-symbol-referencer-interface.

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