Just thinking out loud here ... It's only been in the last couple of months that I've learned how to use the space-alist attribute of some of the preferatory grobs (and also BarLine). And it occurs to me that nowhere in the user manual do we really discuss this (quite useful) attribute? Is that, in fact, the case? If so, maybe a good Samaritan act for somebody (including possibly me when I get some time in the fall) would be to add a subsection to section 11.6 "Horizontal spacing" called something like 11.6.6 "Setting preferatory spacing". Chapter 11 on spacing has truly come along tremendously in 2.11 and this might be a nice extension to that work. Examples of each of the attributes in the break-alignable-interface, break-aligned-interface and break-alignment-interface would go a long way to exhibiting full control over stacking and space what shows up at the beginnings of lines and measures. (Somebody please correct me, however, if we do discuss the space-alist sufficiently somewhere in the docs that I might have missed.) Trevor. -- Trevor Bača [EMAIL PROTECTED]
