How about the new spacing section?

Well, this at least does affect the horizontal spacing and allows to force some space in. But it's very hard to control because you don't affect the individual note/grob but rather the whole spacing process as such.

Attached is the best result I could achieve. The space before the grace notes is fine (I used a higher value than necessary to make it visible), but I have the side-effect of the misaligned clef (and too much space in the middle of the first beamed group. This is regardless of where I place the first \newSpacingSection.

Thanks anyway

Hi Urs,

No solution from me, but I just feel compelled to mention that this is one of my BIG issues with lilypond that I cannot seem to control - adjusting fine spacing like this in my scores is never successful. If there is a way to do it, hopefully somebody will let us know. If not, this would be a hugely desirable enhancement. I also have issues with grace note spacing becoming uneven when used in the context of cross staff beaming, and compounding that with the use of dodecaphonic accidentals makes lilypond produce very ugly output. It's about my only criticism of the entire marvellous application.

Andrew
