Re: grace notes spacing

[Martín Rincón Botero]

How about:

\layout {
  \context {
    \Score
    \override SpacingSpanner.strict-note-spacing = ##t
    \override SpacingSpanner.common-shortest-duration = #(ly:make-moment 1/20)
    \override GraceSpacing.common-shortest-duration = #(ly:make-moment 1/64)
  }
}

<<
  \relative c''' { r4 \appoggiatura { cis32 b ais } b4 gis' e }
  \relative c'' \repeat unfold 2 { gis8 b gis b }
>>

Cheers,
  Harm

Thanks for the idea, but strict-note-spacing causes all types of collisions in my score (although it works perfectly for my MWE). The problems of strict-note-spacing seem to be the same for strict-grace-spacing. Both spacing modes are pretty much useless.
