Description
Your idea
I've long wanted parentheses width control options where:
-
dragging a single parenthesis char updates the opposing parenthesis in a mirror like way—i.e. if the user moves the right parenthesis rightward Musescore moves the complementary left parenthesis leftward by the same amount.
-
the two parenthesis chars remain "centered" around their parent note, or around the "center" position as defined by dragging the parentheses pair.
-
y values are ignored during dragging individual parenthesis. (Or y is ignored when change in x exceeds change in y). If y changes both parenthesis assume that value.
Likewise the Inspector would afford balanced widening of a parentheses via a "width" property. And a "center" or "offset" property.
Problem to be solved
Currently we have an awkward implementation which readily leads to complementary parentheses with differing y values.
