One possibility is to use a third voice marked \voiceTwo. You'll get some warnings about colliding note columns which you can safely ignore. \relative c' { \time 2/4 \key des \major \clef F { r4 ges | as ges | f2 } \\ { \tweak Stem #'length #7 des2( | as)~ | as } \\ {

If the line breaking isn't expected to change, i think that the most reliable solution would be to explicitely set staff distance in this particular system. Thanks for the suggestion, but I think that such a severe collision should be fixed independently of the final layout. I'm still

I use transposition a lot with figured bass. I avoid the problem by adopting the early convention where no natural sign exists, only sharp and flat. In this way, no changes are needed to the figures after transposition. It takes some extra mental effort (you see a flat above the bass note D and
