Hi David, here's my first attempt to apply my drawing function to your project. Thanks again for sharing this really cool tool!
I've played around with some settings, and I also experimented with the messed up dynamics problem when taking the engravers out of the score context. It works if you set outside-staff-priority to a value high enough: \override MusicBoxer.outside-staff-priority = #10000 \override Box.outside-staff-priority = #10000 However, this leads to a warning: "Ein Objekt außerhalb der Notenzeile sollte eine Richtung haben, Vorgabe ist »nach oben«" (Following the lilypond translation, this is the original warning message: #: axis-group-interface.cc:786 msgid "an outside-staff object should have a direction, defaulting to up") It seems that there is something taken into account for spacing calculations, but LilyPond doesn't know if this mysterious something is located above or below the score. By the way, if I put a box around an eighth note that is attached to a beam, the beam completely disappears. With MusicBoxer this is not the case. Unfortunately I cannot be much of help for any explanation because the way LilyPond acts behind the scenes is still a mystery to me...
