Re: horizontal control

[Kevin Barry]

Hi David,

In general it is very difficult to make lilypond alter the width of a single bar (to quote the manual: `There is no convenient mechanism to manually override spacing'). There are some ad hoc solutions for specific cases (that mostly make a bar /wider/) but your question doesn't give enough information to suggest a solution. Could you perhaps create a tiny example that illustrates your problem and hopefully we will be able to suggest a solution.

I want to compress a specific measure horizontally.  It contains a full measure rest and nothing else.  I have tried various searches but have not found how to do this.  Can someone point me to the place in the docs where this is explained?

Thanks,

David
