Hi Mats,

The more philosophical question is what you mean by "natural note spacing" since you still want the spacing to be wide enough to avoid collisions between the syllables.

In the (first measure of the) example I gave, I kind of did the following:

1. Divide the "span" into "spacable sections" -- here, two half-notes.
2. Determine the width of each "spaceable section" by the total "natural" width of the lyrics within the section.
3. Evenly spread the notes across each "spaceable section".
4. Place the lyrics under each "spaceable section", with the first syllable left-aligned on the first note and the last syllable right- aligned on the last note.

Does that make it more clear?

Thanks,
Kieren.
