Le 08/07/2021 19:50, Sam Roberts <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> a écrit : Sorry for the delayed response. unsetting the ragged and adding the terminating thingy (sorry, don't know its name), looks better, thanks! But it still doesn't get me what I'd call "proportional". I'd like the horizontal space taken by these 3 bars to be ***exactly*** the same, since they each take exactly 3 ticks on the metronome to play: \time 3/4 a4 a a | a2 a4 | a2. | But the way they are rendered, the whitespace gets tweeked so the more notes that are drawn in the bar, the wider it gets, and all three end up being different lengths. I've searched the docs, and I'm trying to use \set proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1/4) but I'm finding the documentation difficult to understand, and the variants I've tried don't seem to do anything to the layout. Aren't you missing the context name? Try \set Score.proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1/4) Don’t you also want \override Score.SpacingSpanner.strict-note-spacing = ##t ? And possibly \remove "Separating_line_group_engraver" HTH, Carl
