Just realised that I discovered this 2 years ago, and it's believed to be a bug. http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Global-vs-local-staff-size-td199126.html
So will report it unless it's already there.

OK, it's a bit cramped, but I thought that the noteheads were scaled to the size of the staff to avoid this. Oddly, if the local staff size is changed to a global staff size, the anomaly disappears. \version "2.19.52" \language "english" \score { \new Staff { <c'' e'' a''>4 <c' e' a'> } } \layout { #(layout-set-staff-size 14) } Regards, Peter mailto:[email protected] www.ptoye.com
