Hello all, I searched the issue tracker and LSR, but couldn’t find anything related to this. (Apologies if I missed it.)
Please consider the output of following snippet: %%% BEGIN SNIPPET \version "2.19.35" cees = { c'8 8 8 8 } tinyteeny = { \time 2/4 \cees \tiny \cees \teeny \cees \new CueVoice { \cees } << R2 \new CueVoice { \cees } >> } \score { \new Staff \tinyteeny } %%% END SNIPPET The stem lengths are identical for all notehead sizes; note also that this is independent of whether CueVoice is explicitly used, and if so whether the CueVoice is simultaneous with another voice. While this output is perhaps logical/intuitive, it looks odd to my eye. And it’s definitely not the accepted convention (cf. Gould, p. 569: “Cue notation is about three-quarters the size of full-sized notation […] All notation symbols that are part of the cue […] are scaled down. Stem lengths are 2-2½ stave-spaces long.”). I think Lilypond should [optionally?] calculate the stem length *relative to the notehead size*, so that the smaller notes look like “real music”. Thoughts?
