Comment #3 on issue 724 by k-ohara5...@oco.net: Staves that begin with an accidental should have more space before their first note.
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=724
Okay so I complied with "Ted Ross, pp.143-147. Anyone interested in fixing this should (without question) consult those pages!"
He says to leave 2.5 spaces from key signature to note head, or if there are accidentals, 2 spaces from key signature to the left-most accidental (actually to the first vertical line in the accidental). Similar concept for time-signatures. LilyPond uses this two-condition concept, so we need only tweak parameters:
KeySignature extra-spacing-width (0.0 . 1.0) KeyCancellation extra-spacing-width (0.0 . 1.0) TimeSignature extra-spacing-width (0.0 . 0.8) Make default ?
