Modifying tuplet bracket length
Tuplet brackets can be made to run to prefatory matter or the next note. Default tuplet brackets
end at the right edge of the final note of the tuplet; full-length tuplet brackets extend farther to
the right, either to cover all the non-rhythmic notation up to the following note, or to cover only
the whitespace before the next item of notation, be that a clef, time signature, key signature, or
another note. The example shows how to switch tuplets to full length mode and how to modify
what material they cover.
\new RhythmicStaff {
% Set tuplets to be extendable...
\set tupletFullLength = ##t
% ...to cover all items up to the next note
\set tupletFullLengthNote = ##t
\time 2/4
\times 2/3 { c4 c c }
% ...or to cover just whitespace
\set tupletFullLengthNote = ##f
\time 4/4
\times 4/5 { c4 c1 }
\time 3/4
c2.

Moving dotted notes in polyphony
When a dotted note in the upper voice is moved to avoid a collision with a note in another voice,
the default is to move the upper note to the right. This behaviour can be over-ridden by using
the prefer-dotted-right property of NoteCollision.
