Don't understand and not sure _which_ effect you mean ...

Probably below may be of some help?
\paper { ragged-right = ##t }
\new Score \with {
\omit TimeSignature
\override SpacingSpanner.spacing-increment = 1
\override SpacingSpanner.base-shortest-duration = #(ly:make-moment -3)
\override SpacingSpanner.common-shortest-duration = #(ly:make-moment -3)
\override NoteHead.style = #'petrucci
%% play around with below, probably useful are settings between 2 and ~10
\override SpacingSpanner.shortest-duration-space = #2
}
{
\cadenzaOn
c'\longa \breve 1 \breve 1 2 2 1 4 4 1 2
%\bar "" \break % uncomment to observe effect
2 8 8 8 8 c''1 b' a' g'
}
Cheers,
Harm
