The notes in the bar are displaced to avoid a collision
of the stem of the first note with the bar number. A
potential solution is to use 'outside-staff-priority
with the priority of the bar number greater than the stem.
By default the 'outside-staff-priority is not set for the
Stem object, but even when set this doesn't work. Maybe the
Stem object does not honour the 'outside-staff-priority value,
as it has already moved itself horizontally to avoid the
collision before the skyline code is invoked.
(You would also need to move engravers to make the
'outside-staff-priority comparison between bar numbers and
stems work - see Learning Manual 4.4.3 for details - but
this doesn't help anyway and would give rise to other
problems.)
So the best solution is to lower the bar number by setting
the value of the 'staff-padding of the bar number object
sufficiently high to clear most of the stems, and tweaking
the value for any bar number for which the default gives a
poor result.

Thanks for answering, Mats. With the following code the bar number
displaces the notes in each bar to the right. If I remove the two
self-alignment-X overrides the bar number does not displace any music.
Ok. If I apply some padding and increase the outside-staff-priority I can
solve the initial displacement of the music. In some cases the padding
would have to be a lot. I have changed the outside-staff-priority below
to as much as 400. It would seem that a high outside-staff-priority would
solve this without needing the padding. When I can I will post an example
that seems to show that outside-staff-priority works sometimes but padding
is needed at other times.

Hi,
12.2.1
When numbering all bars the default bar numbers seem to be at the end
of the previous bar which is confusing to the reader. When I use
\override Score.BarNumber #'self-alignment-X = #-1
to try to make these less confusing to the reader *sometimes* the music
above the bar numbers is moved to the right which looks ugly. Is there
another way to move the bar numbers without moving the music?
Thanks,
Paul Scott
