center-aligning TimeSignatures

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hello all,

1. When different staves have different TimeSignatures, is there a standard as 
to the alignment? (n.b. Lilypond’s default is left-aligned, as seen in the 
snippet below.)

2. If my preference would be to center-align them (see manually-tweaked version 
in the snippet), is there an easy way to accomplish this globally/automagically?

Thanks,
Kieren.

\version "2.19"

thinSigMusic = {
  \set Staff.timeSignatureFraction = 3/4
  c''1
}

thickSigMusic = {
  \set Staff.timeSignatureFraction = 4899/222
  c''1
}

\score {
  <<
    \new Staff \thinSigMusic
    \new Staff \thickSigMusic
  >>
}

\score {
  <<
    \new Staff \with { \override TimeSignature.extra-offset = #'(2 . 0) } 
\thinSigMusic
    \new Staff \thickSigMusic
  >>
}
