Hi Carl,
I doubt that it is "intended" behavior. However, I do think your file
represents a misuse of the properties.
minimum-distance is intended to always be less than basic-distance. In this
case, I think that minimum-distance is greater than basic-distance, which
probably messes up all of the rods-and-springs behavior.
Hmm, I can imagine this, but the problem occurs also if minimum-distance
is smaller than basic-distance.
(Look at the snippet at the bottom) With increased minimum-distance, the
FiguredBass is shifted more and more to the top.
However, it's unpractical that you have to know basic-distance if you
just want to set a minimum-distance.
Maybe in this case a warning should be printed?
Regards,
Michael
