Hi Werner,
You can tweak the 'extra-spacing-width property like so:
\version "2.11.53"
#(ly:set-option 'point-and-click #f)
\header{
tagline = ##f
}
\relative c'' {
d4 r d8[ d d d] |
d4 r d r |
d4 r d8[ d d d] |
d4 r d r |
d4 r d8[ d d d] |
d4 r d r |
d4 r d8[ d d d] |
d4 r d r |
d4 r d8[ d d d] |
r4
\override NoteHead #'extra-spacing-width = #'(0 . 3)
des2. |
\revert NoteHead #'extra-spacing-width
r2 d4 r |
}
\paper {
paper-height = 5.0\cm
ragged-right = ##f
indent = 0.0\cm
}
There is an example in LM 4.4.3 using DynamicText, and the property
description is in LM 4.5.1.
HTH,
Patrick
