So, the real question is this: can we make LyricText.self-alignment-X
dynamic instead of static? In other words, can we use a springs-like
mechanism between LyricText syllables, but that are more flexible than the
springs-and-rods between NoteColumns? That way, the NoteColumns would more
likely get into their normal rhythmic positions and the LyricText grobs
could float horizontally a bit, pushing each other around within their -1
to 1 self-alignment-X range. I'm only brainstorming, but it seems that this
would be a generally good approach to provide the least disruption of note
spacing.
Looking forward to everyone's thoughts on the matter.
Best,
Abraham
