RE: spacing of triplets

[Mark Stephen Mrotek]

David,

 

“\newSpacingSection” worked, although it had to be inserted before each measure. Is that expected?

 

Thank you.

 

Mark

Mark,

The problem may be that the context has caused LilyPond to use a different base duration for spacing. 

 

I recognize this as part of the Mozart Fantasia in c minor--correct?  If that's what it is, the section before this is rather different rhythmically, and I assume that the program continues to use a base duration for spacing that is too large for the passage you've posted.  You might want to set a \newSpacingSection here.

 

Hope this helps,

David
