Yesterday I posted this message which was refused because it was too big. I reduced the size of the PNG image, so now it should be ok.
---------- Original message ---------- Date: Tue, 17 Sep 2002 17:09:47 +0200 (CEST) From: Maurizio Tomasi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Bar size Hello to everybody. I have attached a tarball containing a small extract from a score I am typesetting now (Mozart Concerto for Piano KV. 459). I have some problems when creating the solo part for the second movement (you can see them in the PNG preview of the first page; if you want to recreate the score, simply do ly2dvi -P k459-solo.ly). You can see how the first 25 bars are rests which are combined in a single multimeasure rest. This bar is too much wide, and the first two lines of music are tightly spaced. Am I doing something wrong? Another question: if you look at bar 48, the left hand staff has a clef change which steals space to the right hand staff (the last note - "a" - in the right hand staff is distant from the next barline). This is not necessary, since the left hand staff has a lot of free space where to place the bass clef even without shifting notes in the right hand staff. The effect is not pleasant, since the whole bar seems to be too much "empty". Thanks a lot for your suggestions. Maurizio
