Not sure if this solves your problem (I don't really have time at the moment to read it in detail) but you can add note lengths to Vaticana notes in the same way as you do with modern notation. They do not change the appearance of the notes but they alter how they are aligned with other staves.

Hi everybody! I have just more or less finished a critical edition/ transcription of one of the Cantigas de Santa Maria. That meant putting two different Vaticana staffs and one normal staff in the same score. Eg. entering The notes from the two main sources in square notation and a interpretation of the semi rytmicnotation in the sources in modern notation. The problem so fare is: as the square notes takes about the same space as one quarter in modern notation disregarding if the sign is punctum inclinatum, punctum or virga. (As far as I understand this is true also in Ligatures.) Now if the virga is interpreted as a long note and punktum as short eg. halfnote and quarter note the notes in the square note staffs will not align with the modern notation after a halfnote is entered in the modern staff. Temporaly I solwed this by adding s4 after apropriate notes in the Vaticana staff's. See the following snipp: escorial = \new VaticanaVoice = "Escorial" { \set Staff.instrumentName="Esc-Codex" \set Staff.shortInstrumentName = "Esc " \set VaticanaStaff.middleCPosition = #2 \set VaticanaStaff.clefPosition = #2 \[g\]\[ a\melisma \flexa b \melismaEnd \] \[ c' \] \[ \virga a\] s4 \[ b \] \[ \virga c' \] s4 \[ \virga d' \] s4 \divisioMaior s4 d' \[ d' \melisma \flexa c'\melismaEnd \] \[ a \] \[ b\melisma \auctum \ascendens b\melismaEnd \] a \[ \virga g \] \[ a\melisma \flexa \deminutum g\melismaEnd \] \[ \virga f\] s4 \divisioMaior } escorialVers = \lyricmode { Nas m^ -- tes sen -- pre -- te^ -- er. de -- ve -- mo -- las sas fei^ -- "[tu]" -- ras } toledo = \new VaticanaVoice = "Toledo" { \set Staff.instrumentName="To- codex" \set Staff.shortInstrumentName = "To " \set VaticanaStaff.middleCPosition = #2 \set VaticanaStaff.clefPosition = #2 \[ g \] \[ a\melisma \flexa b \melismaEnd \] \[ \inclinatum c'\] \[ a \] s4 \[ \inclinatum b \] \[ c' \] s4 \[d' \] s4 s4 \[ d' \] \[ d'\melisma \flexa c'\melismaEnd \] \[ a \] \[ b \] s4 \[ \inclinatum a \] \[ g \] \[ a \melisma \flexa g\melismaEnd \] \[ f \] s4 } toledoVers = \lyricmode { Nas me^ -- tes sen -- pre te^ -- er de -- ve -- mo las sas fei -- tu -- ras } transcriptI = \relative c' { \partial 4*1 g'4 a( b) c a2 b4 c2 d r4 d4 d4( c) a b2 a4 g4. a8( g4) f2 } transcriptVers = \lyricmode { Nas men -- tes sen -- pre te -- ner de ve -- mo -- las sas fei -- tu -- ras. } transcript = \new Staff { << \new Voice = "Transcript" { \set Staff.instrumentName="Transcript" \set Staff.shortInstrumentName = "Tr.

Its not only a eastetical quiz: If I also print the Vaticana "parts" separatly the extra spaces are just that: extra spaces botching the normal spacing of the notes and giving things a rather weirdo look when not in the mixed scorecontext. Its also a bother to have to edit in/ out the extra spaces and somewath time consuming as I had to process the score at least a few extra times (at least this first time) to get alignement and overall look right.
