Hi Joram & all, Firstly: i apologize for the delay. I'm really failing hard with managing LilyPond stuff :(

I don't quite like the overlap, but i agree that the numbers shouldn't stay outside staff line for bass clef. > Are the glyph shapes available during the automatic positioning? Such > that these top and bottom parts of the glyphs could be used for positioning? That would be possible, but i think it would be too much work. > Is this worth appending to issue 3186? Definitely! I added it. best, Janek _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
