Hi, I like to use an extra-offset clef *with false X-extent* to move clefs into whitespace in my cutaway scores. This pair of overrides ...
\once \override Staff.Clef.X-extent = ##f \once \override Staff.Clef.extra-offset = #'(-2.8 . 0) ... seems to do the trick. The example from the top of the thread then rewrites this way: %%% BEGIN %%% \version "2.19.82" << \new Staff { \repeat unfold 100 { c'4 } } \new Staff { \repeat unfold 20 { g'2 } g'1 \stopStaff s1*4 \startStaff \once \override Staff.Clef.X-extent = ##f \once \override Staff.Clef.extra-offset = #'(-2.8 . 0) \clef treble \repeat unfold 20 { e'2 } } >> %%% END %%% [image: left-offset-clef.png] Usage notes: 1. As always, there's the question of Grob.X-extent = ##f versus Grob.X-extent = #'(0 . 0). I've never been able to understand, systematically, when to use one and when to use the other. Sometimes the overrides are interchangeable. But in this case the overrides differ importantly: make sure to use Staff.Clef.X-extent = ##f (as shown). If you use Staff.Clef.X-extent = #'(0 . 0) then Lily will mysteriously draw a little extra fringe of stafflines into the white cutaway part of your score. 2. The magic value of -2.8 in the extra-offset is eyeballed; tweak manually to control the whitespace between the clef and following barline. Change the number when using a C of F clef. Trevor.
