Hi Keith,I'm proposing to make a full self-consistent set of overrides be the new default <http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3279>How's that going?
I pushed the change, but then reversed it when I found out that the cool people keep such things in a file: 1. Lilypond.ily -- basic settings [that really should be Lilypond defaults!]
For the record, here's an example of why I want to be able to say "this grob [e.g., BarNumber] is allowed to slide left or right to avoid a collision, but not up or down":
LilyPond determines first where the bar number goes on the bar-line, then how much space the bar-line needs when spacing the notes. There is not a mechanism to move the bar number later, though Mike made one for moving dynamics horizontally away from stems. We can, of course, to the analogous thing for BarNumbers as we did for MetronomeMarks and allow space for them in note-spacing.
In my opinion, the above is truly — and unnecessarily — unfortunate output.
That is what you get when you override some of the defaults, but don't take the time to find others you maybe should have adjusted.
