3.1.122 SpanBarStub

An auxiliary grob, acting like a fake SpanBar grob in contexts such as Lyrics that are crossed by a span bar, to keep span bars taking horizontal space.

SpanBarStub objects are created by the following engraver(s): Span_bar_stub_engraver.

Standard settings:

extra-spacing-height (pair of numbers):

pure-from-neighbor-interface::extra-spacing-height

In the horizontal spacing problem, we increase the height of each item by this amount (by adding the ‘car’ to the bottom of the item and adding the ‘cdr’ to the top of the item). In order to make a grob infinitely high (to prevent the horizontal spacing problem from placing any other grobs above or below this grob), set this to (-inf.0 . +inf.0).

X-extent (pair of numbers):

#<procedure at lily/output-lib.scm:1689:0 (grob)>

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

Y-extent (pair of numbers):

#<unpure-pure-container #f #<procedure pure-from-neighbor-interface::pure-height (grob beg end)> >

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

This object supports the following interface(s): grob-interface, item-interface and pure-from-neighbor-interface.

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