Re: Extra space at the beginning of the bar

[Paolo Prete]

Hello Thomas,

thanks for the tweak, which is massive.

I think it would be useful to group in one snippet all these howtos and work-arounds for solving horizontal spacing issues.

Then I created this snippet, which has to be completed and can be enriched.

Any contribution is welcome...! I know that you seem to discourage manual placement of grobs, but it would be useful at least to group these tips in one

coherent document.

Please give me a feedback

As long as you have a SkipEvent without any post-events the
SpacingSpanner-override will affect and move the _following_
NoteColumn.
That looks fine, imho

As soon as something is attached to a SkipEvent a related PaperColumn
is created and can be tweaked like:

{
  \overrideProperty Score.PaperColumn.X-extent #'(-20 . 10)
  s4\f
  c''2.
}

Cheers,
