I have now discovered that there are several properties of ChordName which trigger equal measure widths, for example \override ChordName.extra-spacing-width=#'(+inf.0 . -inf.0) in conjunction with \set Score.proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1/4) gives equally spaced measures, even if the chord symbols are too large (they collide in that case). Strangely, this \override ChordName.Y-extent=##f also triggers equal-width measures. Is using any of these effects reliable, or am I just trading on some vagaries of the coding?
