Re: Tuplet bracket visibility seems to break something

[Leo Correia de Verdier]

The reason for it breaking is that in the code you posted there are vertical 
lines ” || " instead of backslashes ” \\ ” separating the voices. 

The bracket issue is that the override needs to go in a context where the 
tuples sees it. By default it goes into the Voice context here, and the << … \\ 
… \\  … >> creates new voices that are unaffected by the override. You need 
either write
\override Staff.TupletBracket.bracket-visibility = ##t 
where it is now to override at staff level or to place the override in the 
voice it is supposed to affect.
