Re: Reduce the gap between time signature and the first note

[Paolo Prete]

Hello Xavier,

I tried your tip but it seems to not produce any difference. See (tested on 2.19.48):

%%%%%

{

r1\break
\time 4/4 c''
\break
\once \override Score.TimeSignature.extra-spacing-width = #'(0.0 . 0.0)
\time 4/4 c''
\break
r

}

%%%%%

Cheers,

P

Hello,

According to the Internals Reference manual the TimeSignature grob has some extra-spacing-width on the right side.

Try adding

\override Score.TimeSignature.extra-spacing-width = #'(0.0 . 0.0)

Cheers,

Xavier
