Re: Position chromatic notes in 1/3 note head size instead of 1/2

[Valentin Petzel]

Hello Robert,

mathematically 1/3 instead of 1/2 means 50% more, this 3*1.4 = 4.5 notes 
should fit.

But the same thing should be doable by simply increasing the distance between 
lines, like this:

<<
\new NoteNames { c d e f g a b c d e f g a }
\new Staff \with {
    \override StaffSymbol.line-positions = #'(-6 -3 0 3 6)
} \relative c' {
  c d e f g a b c d e f g a
}
>>
