It’s generally helpful to keep replies on-list.

Yes, exactly!
I mean accidentals in a key signature.
In terms of import facilities - it is better to fix some things manually then
writing the whole piece from the scratch, especially is that pieces of music is
loooong. Besides now I have been experimenting, so I am going to mill a simple
Bach’s invention. Shouldn’t be too many problems with formatting I hope.

Hello everybody!
I have been developing tactile stave music notation for
the visually impaired. I am going to make a score with
subsequent milling on a CNC machine. Now I mainly
use Musescore, which is a wonderful piece of software,
but as of yet it cannot change the width of flags
and change distance between key signature elements.
Can those things be done in Lilypond?
Certainly they can. The flags in their current shape are part of the music
font, so it’s not quite easy to just make them thicker, but you can create a
new ‘stencil’ (or someone on this list can) and replace the default one. The
other one is also feasible: do you mean the padding between individual
accidentals in a key signature?
In such case I would prepare the score in
Musescore and then import it into
Lilypond and do the rest.
Unfortunately, this is difficult. LilyPond has MusicXML import facilities, but
they aren’t quite satisfactory and tend to require a lot of manual adjustments.
There is ongoing work to improve this.
Best, Simon
