Forgive me if I gave the impression that I was criticising anybody or anything. It wasn't a technical comment; I was just making a light-hearted observation regarding the roughly crochet-sized gaps after the minims in the original photograph, which might be mimicked by dropping in a line like \set Score.proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1 8) No more than that. Cheers, David.
