<br>
when using the note entry metrics from FCEntryMetrics, I always need
to check first whether it's an upstem or downstem note (via
FCNoteEntry:CalcStemUp()), because GetStemLeftPosition is either on
the right side of the notehead (if upstem) or on the left side (if
downstem).<br>
<br>
Now if I want to calculate the left/right metrics of a rest, the
same problem exists:<br>
I need to know whether it's "sort of" upstem or downstem. <br>
But: FCNoteEntry:CalcStemUp() seems to always return false on rests.<br>
<br>
The problem comes up for example when have measures with two voices
or two layers.<br>
GetStemLeftPosition returns the left boundary of the rest, if the
rest is on voice1 and the right boundary on voice2.<br>
Similar, but a bit more difficult to determine when using rests on
different layers.<br>
<br>
It would be great if I could determine this metrics behaviour with
CalcStemUp() on rests - just as it is possible on notes.<br>
Currently it's a bit of guessing whether GetStemLeftPosition returns
the left boundary of the right boundary of rests.<br>
