I had a bit of a play with Stem #'X-extent - looks like you can increase the spacing on a note by changing the X-extent values, but I wasn't able to get the spacing to decrease:Hi Antheo,Yes a short sample would be nice but as it is a layout question it does not makes sense to shorten the code. Here is the code i wrote: http://old.nabble.com/file/p27667198/commons.ly commons.ly http://old.nabble.com/file/p27667198/Introduction%2B-%2BSaint%2BSaens.ly Introduction+-+Saint+Saens.lyOK -- now I can see what's going on. =) 1. If I'm not mistaken, you're trying to adjust not the overall spacing, but specific spacing choices/proportions based on note length. It's easy to match the length of the entire snippet to the desired output/example -- by tweaking common-shortest-duration -- but you want (e.g.) more space left for a dotted eighth than Lilypond's default. I believe this isn't controlled by "common-shortest-duration" only, but by other settings — I don't know the exact details, but I imagine there's a relatively easy way to set these proportions as you would like them. Maybe someone else can answer more completely.

c4 c8 c c4 c |
c4 c8 \wstem #'(0 . 4) c c4 c |
