Rests between brackets

Hello,

It would be great to add an option to add brackets around rests. (In many instances mainly in laissez vibrer cases it’s useful to add brackets around rests that occur before dampening) Here I faked them with playing techniques but positioning them around the rests is time consuming :

Thank you in advance!

Yes, I agree that more brackets around things would be great.

It should be a set vertical distance; and once you’ve done one, you can alt-click or just set the same offset value in the Properties panel.

My tendency would be to extend the note length up to the damp symbol rather than put rests in parentheses, but others can do what they wish.

In most contemporary music I’ve worked on in the last 10+ years, I’ve seen the notation with parenthesised rests being the most used.
