Well, you can tell by starting with it unspaced, check for beat chart, then space using metatool 4. If there's a beat chart then and it includes handles for the hidden note values, then it's doing what Johannes said (so far as I understand him), and what I'm seeing as well. And as Barbara observed, it wouldn't be good spacing if the notes were visible, as it's way too tight. Creating the trill example is the best way to see this, since it's the case where it will be most pronounced (with the greatest difference between good spacing for the visible notation as compared to the hidden notes). -- David W.
