There is a technique to make the flag smaller in general: \override Flag.font-size = #-2 for instance. That what you're looking for? Best, Robert On 8 Apr 2017, at 16:43, Joseph N.

The other techniques that I have used in this situation are to shift the note on the right more or to lengthen the stem of the note on the left. However, I am wondering if there is a tweak or other technique to shorten a tail? I searched lilypond.org <http://lilypond.org> and Google, but did not retrieve a helpful answer. If I missed the appropriate place in the documentation, I apologize. Thanks for your help.
