A default value of skyline-horizontal-padding of 1.2 gets skyline-horizontal-padding.ly to work well. An override to System 'skyline-horizontal-padding = #0 in stem-length-estimation.ly gets it working well. Since we already have overrides to make this regtest work, I don't see it as a big problem to add another.
I'll argue once more for putting the override to sklyine-horizontal-padding in the reg-test for skyline-horizontal-padding, so you can use a default tuned to realistic use. A default of 1.2 strikes me as rather large, although the three files I checked last evening do alright 1.2. We should err on the side of too low a padding, at first. Users suffering from too much interleaving have some hope to find the override by searching for 'interleaving' or by searching 'padding' and sorting through the results. Users needing to fit music (that looks just a bit more interleaved than stem-estimation length.ly) will look to the Notation Reference section on "fitting music onto fewer pages". Let's teach sklyine-horizontal-padding in that doc before making the default anything that a user might want to reduce. _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
