I was worried that the left/right corners of the point where the barline meets the outer staff line would start to look like this **** **** ******* ******* ******* (right upper corner) then again, if the barline is horizontally aligned, it may not be a problem. I think the problem may still occur if you stop/start staves half-way the page, but we may decide it's not important enough. you can check for unexpected artifacts by blowing up both staffline thickess and the barline thickness. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys - han...@xs4all.nl - http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
