OK, thanks. > Why should there be a difference? The idea of having compressed > MMRs is to save horizontal space, isn't it? I did not claim there should be a difference, I was asking the question. IIRC I increased the horizontal space of compressed MMR in order to prevent overlapping of tempo indications in a piece for an instrument part with many MMR (similar to what Kieren is also asking/fighting AFAIK). I also used it as a workaround because "full measure rests take too little horizontal space compared to notes" (issue 1798, still open as issue 3135). http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3135 > Can you show us some literature scans which supports your claim? I can't, that's why I was asking the question (but instrument parts with lots of MMR and tempo indications still needs careful thinking). Since it seems "single Whole Measure Rest" and "compressed MMR" are usually treated similarly, sorry for the noise. Thank you for your consideration.
