Good morning!
I am fairly new to lilypond and the group but hope someone might be able to
help or at least point me in the right direction in the manuals.
I write single staff, unmetered (cadenzaOn), vocal chant and have a problem
when there is more than one measure in a staff. The first note in the
second and subsequent measures is always too close to the left barline.
IS there a way to adjust that spacing? I have been reading under horizontal
spacing, \layout block and lyrics but have yet to really find an answer.
Any help would be appreciated. Below is a short example:
\version "2.18.2"
\language english
\score {
\new Staff \with {\remove "Time_signature_engraver" }
\relative c'
<<
{
\key g \major
\cadenzaOn
a'2 fs4 a a a b g2 g \bar "|" g4( a) b b b b \bar "" \break
}
\addlyrics {
\override LyricText #'font-name = #"Arial"
In the mul -- ti -- tude of my sins, a pau -- per with a
}
>>
\layout {
indent = 0
ragged-right = ##t
\context {
\Score
\override SpacingSpanner.base-shortest-duration = #(ly:make-moment
1/36)
}
}
}
Thanks
Dave
