Re: horizontal space after rehearsal mark (or bar line)

[Nick Payne]

I tried Mats' suggestion on a score with about 30 rehearsal marks in it, 
commenting out all the BarLine #'extra-spacing-width overrides and 
adding the RehearsalMark #'extra-spacing-width and RehearsalMark 
#'extra-spacing-height overrides, but that doesn't work for all the 
marks - some still appear above other elements...

See attached images - I thought that mark 4 was raised because of the 
TextSpanner terminating on the final note of the preceding bar, but 
other marks (such as 20) which have a TextSpanner terminating in exactly 
the same place relative to the mark are not raised, so for the time 
being I'm using my original hack.
