What about the measures to the left of the left-most measure in your 
example? And are you looking at this in page view or scroll view? I 
already replied earlier about adjusting measure widths in page view 
to something drastically narrow (in the case of measures that have, 
say, only a whole rest or a whole note, for instance), and the doing 
an update layout, which spreads things out nicely in the system. The 
example you cite above looks like what I'd get if I adjusted measure 
widths to the left, and the wide measure were the last measure of the 
system, and I neglected to update layout.

I often do this to get spacing that's tighter than the default 
algorithms allow, but still visually satisfactory.
