%  Ran into some issues working with trills.
%  I wonder if there are more semantically appropriate ways to get decent
output?

%  The default for adjacent trills is cluttered,
%  and there is no clean way to specify the stop of the last trill if it is
the last note.
%  This attempt at something semantically appropriate produces the error
%  "programming error: bounds of this piece aren't breakable."

\relative c'' {
        g2\startTrillSpan
        fis2\stopTrillSpan \startTrillSpan |
        f?2\stopTrillSpan \startTrillSpan
        e2\stopTrillSpan \startTrillSpan | <>\stopTrillSpan ||
}

%  Here is my solution so far:

trills = \relative c'' {
    g2*3/4\startTrillSpan s2*1/4\stopTrillSpan
    fis2*3/4\startTrillSpan s2*1/4\stopTrillSpan |
    f?2*3/4\startTrillSpan s2*1/4\stopTrillSpan
    e2*3/4\startTrillSpan s2*1/4\stopTrillSpan ||
}
\score {
    \trills
}

%  In order to get these trills to be longer, is there a minimum-length
property?
%  Settting a score-wide property works, but I was hoping there would be
%  something more trill-specific, or localized to a few measures.

\score {
    \trills
    \layout {
        \context {
            \Score
            \override SpacingSpanner.base-shortest-duration =
#(ly:make-moment 1/16)
        }
    }
}



Thanks for any ideas or suggestions.
