Hi, the awful spacing of input/regression/tablature-harmonic-functions.ly let me to investigate, and it is apparently due to StringNumber being set to transparent, meaning that it still occupies space. I tried now to do
\new Voice \with { \override StringNumber #'stencil = ##f } { \clef "treble_8" e,1 | % check whether tab note head is restored \harmonicByFret #12 e'4\1 ~ \harmonicByFret #12 e'4\1 ( \ottava #1 \harmonicByFret #7 e'4\1) \harmonicByFret #5 e'8\1 \ottava #2 \harmonicByFret #4 < b\2 e'\1 >8 | \harmonicByFret #3 < g\3 b\2 e'\1 >4 \harmonicByFret #2.7 < g\3 b\2 e'\1 >4 \harmonicByFret #2.3 < g\3 b\2 e'\1 >4 \harmonicByFret #2 < g\3 b\2 e'\1 >4 | \ottava #0 } instead (removing the New_fingering_engraver is not an option since it is responsible for more than just string numbers), but I get programming errors in return: Interpreting music...
