Hmm, if you look e.g. at timpani parts for several large works, you will
frequently encounter one-line movements, because the Timpani only play the
last three measures or so of a movement...
That's actually how I got bitten by this: I had one such part (it was a
flute...) and when lilypond suddenly produced an only half-filled line, I
spent quite some time playing with all different kinds of horizontal
stretching/padding/whatever settings, but didn't think of ragged-right...
Anyway, I now found the culprit and added ragged-right=##t to
orchestrallily.ly, so I'll never run into this problem again.
Cheers,
Reinhold
