Re: Minimum padding after barlines for notes with accidentals?

[Markus Schneider]

Hi all,

string numbers are too close to the preceding grob all the time in natural
spacing anyway (not only at a bar line), so

\layout {
  \context {
    \Voice
    \override StringNumber #'minimum-X-extent = #'(-1.3 . 0.2)
  }
}

will do the trick.

Also, I changed the function from the previous post to have
"only-at-barline" adjustments added more easily as they arise.
"Arpeggios-at-bar-beginning" are added this way.

Cheers,
Markus
