Thanks for the report.
I don't know about gregorian notation or ligatures, but my experiments suggest
that the spacing of a ligature grows with the total duration of the ligature.
(hence it's in some sense proportional to the number of notes in it). I think
this is the way spacing usually behaves for other notes as well.
Can you play around with different configurations and extract a rule for how
the spacing should be done?
Here's some code to start with:
\layout {raggedright=##t}
\new VaticanaStaff {
c'4 \[\virga g'16 \inclinatum f' \inclinatum e' \inclinatum d'
\inclinatum c'\] b
}
<<
\new VaticanaStaff {
c'4 \[\virga g'16 \inclinatum f' \inclinatum e' \inclinatum d'
\inclinatum c'\] b
}
\new Staff {c4 c16 c c c c c c }
>>
\new VaticanaStaff {
c'4 \[\virga g' \inclinatum f' \inclinatum e' \inclinatum d'
\inclinatum c'\] b
}
<<
\new VaticanaStaff {
c'4 \[\virga g' \inclinatum f' \inclinatum e' \inclinatum d'
\inclinatum c'\] b
}
\new Staff {c4 c4 c c c c c c }
