Hi Zoran, Any reason you don’t just use the built-in tuplet function, e.g., \tuplet 7/6 { d[ g b d \rh \stemDown g b d] } or, if you don’t want to see the tuplet number, \once \omit TupletNumber \tuplet 7/6 { d[ g b d \rh \stemDown g b d] } ?? Hope this helps! Kieren.

After an extremely long syllable in the lyrics, the next measure's spacing is quite wide, even with ragged-right. In the tiny example below, the problematic measure (of two eighth notes) comprises the word, "shine". Before each of its eighth notes, I tried the following commands, but they didn't
