Broken Crescendo Hairpin
In order to make parts of a crescendo hairpin invisible, the following method is used: A white
rectangle is drawn on top of the respective part of the crescendo hairpin, making it invisible.
The rectangle is defined as postscript code within a text markup.
To fine-tune the position and size of the markup, the number preceding setgray in the
postscript definition can be set to a value less than one, making it grey. The two numbers before
scale in the postscript code are responsible for the width and height of the rectangle, the two
numbers before translate change the x- and y-origin of the rectangle.
Make sure to put the hairpin in a lower layer than the text markup to draw the rectangle
over the hairpin.
