Re: bars and clefs

[Mats Bengtsson]

An alternative solution that goes more to the source of the actual problem
is to do something like

\override Score.BarLine #'space-alist = #'(
                       (time-signature . (extra-space . 0.75))
                       (custos . (minimum-space . 2.0))
                       (clef . (minimum-space . 1.5)) % Default value = 1.0
                       (key-signature . (extra-space . 1.0))
                       (key-cancellation . (extra-space . 1.0))
                       (first-note . (fixed-space . 1.3))
                       (next-note . (semi-fixed-space . 1.3))
                       (right-edge . (extra-space . 0.0)))

Maybe you have to increase the minimum space from BarLine to key-signature
even further, 1.5 is just a guess.

This is definitely something that's hard to figure out yourself from the
documentation. That's why we have a mailing list.
