By default, MetronomeMarks have settings requesting specifically that LilyPond ignore them when spacing notes and rests, analogous to \textLengthOff I use the two overrides below. There are still irregularities, because of the way MetronomeMarks are sometimes part of a note-column, sometimes part of the column holding bar-lines or time-signatures, but it gives a better starting point. \relative f { \override Score.MetronomeMark #'extra-spacing-width = #'(0 . -3) \override Score.MetronomeMark #'non-break-align-symbols = #'( note-column-interface multi-measure-rest-interface) \compressFullBarRests \tempo "Larghissimo" R1*8 \tempo "PiĆ¹ mosso" R1*8 \tempo "Meno mosso" c''4 e g c \tempo "Molto adagio" R1*8 } _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
