Hi Mark,

Hmm, that is something that I am not willing to do either, I really think that for the kind of notation I am using, the 32nd notes are the best choice. But regardless of that, I think that LilyPond should be able to adjust the grace notes to the ledger lines by itself. Anyway, after some other tweaks, I came up with the following solution: tweak.ly <http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/file/n157842/tweak.ly> Which outputs: <http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/file/n157842/tweak.png> And here is a close up of the differences: <http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/file/n157842/tweak_close_up.png> It is by no means perfect (I think it lacks some balance due to the thickness of the beams of the grace notes in my view), but it looks much easier to read in my opinion. I post it here so maybe someone who needs this will find it.
