line-interface

Generic line objects. Any object using lines supports this. Normally,you get a straight line. If dash-period is defined, a dashed line is produced; the length of the dashes is tuned with dash-fraction. If the latter is set to 0, a dotted line is produced. If dash-fraction is negative, the line is made transparent.

User settable properties:
dash-fraction (number)
Size of the dashes, relative to dash-period. Should be between 0.0 (no line) and 1.0 (continuous line).
dash-period (number)
the length of one dash + white space. If negative, no line is drawn at all.
style (symbol)
This setting determines in what style a grob is typeset. Valid choices depend on the print-function that is reading this property.
thickness (number)
Bar line thickness, measured in linethickness.

This grob interface is used in the following graphical objects: Hairpin, OttavaBracket, PianoPedalBracket, TupletBracket and VoltaBracket
