Hey all,
I’m working on a piece where staff space is used to indicate intervals.
In a staff where the distance between lines is halved, I need to double stem
lengths (which are calculated in staff spaces) so that stems are comfortably
readable.
However, tremolos are shifted up on these stems c

I assume this is the sort of thing you’d refer to as hackish?

Dear community,
I have an old piece of code, initially written by Rune Zedeler.
I would like to update it to version 2.18.0, but I don't know what is wrong
with it.
Here is the code:
