Gould says that a bar containing a single note is placed left of center. Full measure rests are centered. So lilypond is behaving correctly from what I can tell, but I agree at times it'd be nice to be able to adjust the off-centered-ness of the note. It's never bothered me enough to try and fix it though. I'd definitely be interested in being able to tweak it if it were available. -----Jay _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
