left alignment before <eu> linebreak?

[eroux]

For the Antiphonale Monasticum project, it would be great if the lines were aligned left (and the custos removed as in #761) if a line break occurs before an <eu> block. This behavior should be optional too... I'm not entirely sure it's feasible easily (if at all)... The most important is that

(::) (Z) <eu>euouae(g) </eu>(::)

and

(::Z) <eu>euouae(g) </eu>(::)

remove the custo

What do you mean by "aligned left" here? Can you post a mock-up?

[eroux]

It just means that some blank space can be added to the right of the line before the <eu> block (if it's one a new line), as if there was a Z in gabc before the <eu> block, while now if you have a double bar before, it will be at the very end of the line...

[henryso]

As of now, (::Z) will get the effect you are describing (ragged line break and suppressed custos). (::) (Z) will neither break the line in a ragged manner nor will it remove the custos. Should I try to fix this, or is it better to just suggest people use (::Z) instead of (::) (Z)?

[eroux]

That's a bit surprising, (Z) should break the line in a ragged manner... I think it's a bug if it doesn't (I cannot test right now, sorry)... But yes (::) (Z) should remove the custos too...

Any hints on the TeX side as to how to insert a \hfill on an automatic linebreak? I don't think I can put that in a \discretionary.

[eroux]

No you can't in a discretionary... I really don't have a clue on how to do that simply... maybe in a two-pass system by saving the information that we cut the lines in a particular way in a particular score, as we do for other features...
