Hi,

If you search in the mailing list archives you will find little bits of
code that partially achieve what you want. If you actually want a sleek
official solution for a future stable version this is going to take a while
I imagine.

Sort answer: all of that is possible but the required ease of use and
smartness of the code can massively complicate the solutions.

The only think I can almost definitely say won't happen is the last one
since I haven't seen such deep integration of (realtime?) MIDI input to
advanced features of Lilypond in my experience. Most advanced users I've
seen active rarely integrate MIDI in their code. In fact there isn't any
notation software that lets you manipulate non fixed objects with MIDI in
such a way. I'm not saying it isn't cool I'm just lowering the expectations
since coding just the spanner functions alone won't be insignificant.

<div>Hi,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;">The latest Lily release is very \
welcomed with great contempory lines and layout objets rotation, thank you !</div> \
<div style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;"><br> </div>
<div style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;">Would it be possible to :</div>
<div style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;">- Combine multiple shapes into \

<div style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;">- Stretching the line with \
anchor points ex. one to the left and stretch the line to the right in order to make \
a progressive vibrato or vibrato that would change in speed and amplitude multiples \

event like a pulse or hidden note ?</div> <div style="font-family:&quot;Times New \

</div>
<div style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;">- Assign one line to local midi \
