Firstly you seem offended. That was not my intention at all. Secondly, your suggestion of altering the beat chart by hand _can_ give you perfect spacing, _but_ to get perfect spacing it is far too much work. If you are concerned about the spacing as much as I am then you would almost certainly come to this conclusion, too. Time is a relevant criteria. Thirdly, your solution is a very fragile one, as soon as you do any major changes to layout, spacing parameters, staff spacing etc, or you extract parts, you end up having to do all of that again. All I am saying is that creating graphic barlines by hand is working against the program, and is bound to cause trouble in the future. I do not recommend ever doing this.
