Analysis brackets with labels: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 12:09, 11 December 2025

Text markup may be added to analysis brackets using the text property of the HorizontalBracketText grob. Adding different texts to brackets beginning at the same time requires the \tweak command.

Bracket text gets parenthesized after a line break.
