Hi Robert, I'm trying to make an example showing mordent symbols with text labels. I want the note positions spaced so that the text is all on one line, with notes placed as needed to fit around it. The easiest way I can think of doing that would be to put manually sized 'gap fillers' between t

Hi Ben, hi Greg, thanks for bringing this up - in fact I started this morning to dig up my old work, prompted by Greg's question. It seems I only developed the functions a but further back then (unfortunately I don't have time at the moment to look into it in detail) - the difference seems to be
