There is a technique to make the flag smaller in general:

 

\override Flag.font-size = #-2

 

for instance. That what you're looking for?

 

Best, Robert

Hello:

 

See the example below.

 

Is there a technique to shorten the tail of an eight note in such a situation?

 

The other techniques that I have used in this situation are to shift the note on the right more or to lengthen the stem of the note on the left.

 

However, I am wondering if there is a tweak or other technique to shorten a tail?

 

I searched lilypond.org and Google, but did not retrieve a helpful answer. If I missed the appropriate place in the documentation, I apologize.

 

Thanks for your help.
