Hi Trevor, Han-Wen, thanks a lot for your efforts to help me out and thanks a lot for your ideas and thoughts! Sorry if I sounded desperate. Trevor's post seems to indicate that it might not work out to get everything perfectly aligned (although I was very close for the first three lines before the spacing engine freaked out). I can live with that at the moment if I can get it "roughly" correct by aligning the barlines of the graph and the music at every tempo change for example. The musicians will have a rehearsal CD anyway to relate their playing to the tape.
If I got it right, I should skip the whole idea of changing the value of the proportionalNoteDuration during the piece. My questions: 1. How do I change the spacing-increment in mid-music? I tried \override Score.SpacingSpanner #'space-increment = #2.8 but this seems to set the spacing increment once and for all. Changing Staff.SpacingSpanner didn't seem to change anything. If that is impossible the minimum I could get away with would be to set ragged-right to ##f and set the width of each staff system to align with the graph. But as far as I understood, the page-width can only get globally set in the \page layout block. Is there a way? Am 03.

Great idea! I'm in of course, thanks for the offer! -- Orm _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
