Well, it is in case it leads to very tight typesetting. The out-of-the-box settings of LilyPond aren't suited to that. Have a look at code issues 2141 to 2145. https://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2141 https://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2142 https://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2143 https://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2144 https://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2145 Except issue 2141, which is partially solved, these are open problems. Note that it *is* possible to tighten horizontal spacing with some not too complicated manual tweaks, cf. http://lilypondblog.org/2013/11/engraving-challenges-horizontal-spacing/ Werner _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
