Hi Kieren,

I'm facing exactly the same problem tonight; did you ever get a
solution for shortening wavy trill lines (and thus preventing their
collision)?

Your posts from June show that you weren't able to get shorten-pair to
do anything for trills, and that's my experience here, too.

Anything creative?
