I am looking at a flute part where many measures are filled to capacity with
16th or 32d notes. This creates for me a concern in picking up barlines easily
when the last note of one measure is stem down and the first note of the next
measure is stem up. Is one answer to make the barlines a bit thicker than the
staff lines? Can this make any difference in readability? Or is this totally a
non-issue for professional musicians who are given parts that are in all manner
of spacing? I realize that one can just increase the note spacing. I would
like the page breaks to remain as they are.
My barlines and ledger lines are twice the thickness of staff lines and
stems. It makes everything much more readable in my opinion, and it is
consistent with the larger European publishers.
I use 2.25 EVPUs and 4.5 EVPUs.
I never understood why MakeMusic doesn't provide similar values in the
default files.
