I guess that's probably how Trevor found this solution, but just for the
record: Looking for more information on the above-mentioned
Separating_line_group_engraver, I have just discovered that section
8.4.3 of the manual(which is significantly entitled "proportional
notation" ;)) deals with this issue. It also mentions two other
overrides which might prove useful to the folks working with
proportional notation (which I personally have never done). Thanks for
the hint, Trevor.
Hi Max,
Check chapter 11.4 in the next couple of days for a substantial
expansion of the proportional docs, which goes into a considerable
amount of detail on all of these settings, complete with pairs of
contrasting examples.
Note, too, that the proportional docs are moving out of chapter 8
"Advanced notation" and into chapter 11 "Spacing issues". At least in
the 2.11.x version of the manual ...
Trevor.
