Correct. (Attached is the original image showing the weird optical effect: the noteheads are all actually the same size and the triangle bases touch stafflines completely ... and the result is that staffline noteheads appear smaller somehow.)

Well, as Han-Wen said: Make the triangle shape slightly bigger vertically: In case the triangle sits on a note line, this isn't visible. In the other case, the broadened base should correct the optical size.
Very good. I'll check with Max and see if we can try a bigger vertical size (while also letting staffspace noteheads connect completely to get rid of the gap). -- Trevor Bača [EMAIL PROTECTED]
