Hi Jay,
> Gould says that a bar containing a single note is placed left of center.
> Full measure rests are centered. So lilypond is behaving correctly
Note that Gould’s description (page 41) supports my feature request, and is
decidedly *not* how Lilypond currently works — here’s the exact example she
gives:
\version "2.19.15"
testing = {
\time 4/4 c1 c1
\time 3/4 c2.
\time 3/8 c4. c4.
}
\layout { ragged-right = ##f }
\score { \new RhythmicStaff \testing }
Notice how Lilypond puts the noteheads at the **left edge of the measure**, and
not “just left of the centre of the bar” as indicated by Gould (and all the
engravings I looked at in both my own library and in IMSLP).
Cheers,
Kieren.
