Re: Trying to displace note heads from stem

[Pierre Perol-Schneider]

Hi Ryan,

As each note head has its proper alignment, I don't see how this can be achieved without using markups.

Long work though...

Something like :

\version "2.19.29"
#(set-global-staff-size 15)
\paper {
  indent = 0
  ragged-right = ##f
}

\new PianoStaff \with {
    \omit TimeSignature
    \consists #Span_stem_engraver
  } <<
  \new Staff \with {
      \clef G
      \override VerticalAxisGroup.staff-staff-spacing =
        #'((basic-distance . 15))
    }  <<
    \new Voice \relative {
      \voiceOne
      \override Beam.positions = #'(10 . 10)
      \override NoteHead.stencil = ##f
      c'16 16 8 8 16 16 16 8 16
      \set subdivideBeams = ##t
      \set baseMoment = #(ly:make-moment 1/8)
      \repeat unfold 5 { c16 c c c }
    }
    \new Voice \relative {
      \voiceTwo
      \override TextScript.padding = #'()
      s16 s
      -\tweak extra-offset #'(-2 . -11)
      ^\markup {
        \with-dimensions #'(0 . 0) #'(0 . 0)
        \score {
          \magnifyMusic 0.8 { a''!4 }
          \layout {
            \context {
              \Score
                \omit StaffSymbol
                \omit Clef
                \omit TimeSignature
                \omit Stem
              }
            }
          }
        }
      -\tweak extra-offset #'(-1 . -11.5)
      ^\markup {

        \score {

              }
            }
          }

Just thinking,

I know there are ways in lilypond to not display the stem. I would 

like to do something slightly different, which is to position the note head

associated with a stem at varying distances away from the stem to denote a relative rhythmic placement which can be seen in Xenakis' Mists https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZH4j70KU-RQ at 3:42 so you can see what I am trying to achieve. 

Thanks!

Ryan.
