Hi all, I'm trying to widen ledger lines: \version "2.18.2" \new Staff \with {
% This widens ledger lines: % \override LedgerLineSpanner.length-fraction = #0.4 % This should too but it doesn't. Instead it increases % horizontal spacing between notes. (?) \override LedgerLineSpanner.minimum-length-fraction = #1 } { c d e f g a b c' } According to the docs[1], LedgerLineSpanner.minimum-length-fraction is the "Minimum length of ledger line as fraction of note head size." [1] http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/internals/ledgerlinespanner They also say that LedgerLineSpanner.length-fraction is a "Multiplier for lengths. Used for determining ledger lines and stem lengths." But does it really affect stem lengths? I could see no indication that it does either in the docs for Stem[2] or when experimenting with the snippet above. [2] http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/internals/stem So I'm able to widen the ledger lines with length-fraction, but I'm wondering whether that will affect stem lengths? And it seems that minimum-length-fraction is not working as described? Does anyone happen to know anything more about these properties? Any insights appreciated.
