I could not resist to try that... David's tool is a really cool thing. The most recent code I know of is here: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/box-around-notes-td35581.html#a170648 Here's a first result: box-to-ellipse.ly <http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/file/n195915/box-to-ellipse.ly> box-to-ellipse.pdf <http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/file/n195915/box-to-ellipse.pdf> It's only a first step and not yet usable for any case. I simply replaced the (rectangular) boxes by ellipses. However, not everything inside the rectangle is covered by the ellipse. There is a property "padding" that can be used to generally increase the size of the ellipses. Also, there is no support for line breaks so far, as a "broken" ellipse will result in two separate ellipses.
