3.1.101 PercentRepeat

A percent symbol for repeating a bar. See also PercentRepeatCounter, DoublePercentRepeat, DoubleRepeatSlash, and RepeatSlash.

PercentRepeat objects are created by the following engraver(s): Percent_repeat_engraver.

Standard settings:

dot-negative-kern (number):

0.75

The space to remove between a dot and a slash in percent repeat glyphs. Larger values bring the two elements closer together.

font-encoding (symbol):

'fetaMusic

The font encoding is the broadest category for selecting a font. Currently, only lilypond’s system fonts (Emmentaler) are using this property. Available values are fetaMusic (Emmentaler), fetaBraces, fetaText (Emmentaler).

self-alignment-X (number):

0

Specify alignment of an object. The value -1 means left aligned, 0 centered, and 1 right-aligned in X direction. Other numerical values may also be specified - the unit is half the object width. If not a number, align on the object’s reference point.

slope (number):

1.0

The slope of this object.

spacing-pair (pair):

'(break-alignment . staff-bar)

A pair of alignment symbols which set an object’s spacing relative to its left and right BreakAlignments.

For example, a MultiMeasureRest will ignore prefatory items at its bounds (i.e., clefs, key signatures and time signatures) using the following override:

\override MultiMeasureRest.spacing-pair =
             #'(staff-bar . staff-bar)

springs-and-rods (boolean):

ly:multi-measure-rest::set-spacing-rods

Dummy variable for triggering spacing routines.

stencil (stencil):

ly:percent-repeat-interface::percent

The symbol to print.

thickness (number):

0.48

For grobs made up of lines, this is the thickness of the line. For slurs and ties, this is the distance between the two arcs of the curve’s outline at its thickest point, not counting the diameter of the virtual “pen” that draws the arcs. This property is expressed as a multiple of the current staff-line thickness (i.e., the visual output is influenced by changes to Staff.StaffSymbol.thickness).

X-offset (number):

centered-spanner-interface::calc-x-offset

The horizontal amount that this object is moved relative to its X-parent.

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

This object supports the following interface(s): centered-spanner-interface, font-interface, grob-interface, multi-measure-rest-interface, percent-repeat-interface and spanner-interface.

This object is of class Spanner (characterized by spanner-interface).
