3.1.11 BalloonTextSpanner

BalloonTextSpanner objects are not created by any engraver.

Standard settings:

annotation-balloon (boolean):

#t

Print the balloon around an annotation.

annotation-line (boolean):

#t

Print the line from an annotation to the grob that it annotates.

extra-spacing-width (pair of numbers):
'(+inf.0 . -inf.0)

In the horizontal spacing problem, we pad each item by this amount (by adding the ‘car’ on the left side of the item and adding the ‘cdr’ on the right side of the item). In order to make a grob take up no horizontal space at all, set this to (+inf.0 . -inf.0).

stencil (stencil):

ly:balloon-interface::print-spanner

The symbol to print.

text (markup):

#<procedure 7f4f8737a2e0 at ice-9/eval.scm:333:13 (a)>

X-offset (number):

#<procedure 7f4f8737a120 at ice-9/eval.scm:333:13 (a)>

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

Y-extent (pair of numbers):

#<unpure-pure-container #<procedure ly:grob::stencil-height (_)> #<procedure ly:balloon-interface::pure-height (_ _ _)> >

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

Y-offset (number):

#<procedure 7f4f87384f20 at ice-9/eval.scm:333:13 (a)>

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