Hi, Kieren!

Hello all,

I've gone back to update an old score, and I'm finding that all the accidentals seem to have extra padding on the left-hand side, despite the fact that I can't seem to find any such tweak/override in the chain of files. Here is the default Lilypond output of a measure:
and here's what I'm seeing in my score:

Both were compiled using the same binary (2.19.64) on Mac OS X — the first image is from a clean file (all code "local", no \includes), the second from my actual score file (containing a large number of \includes, stylesheets, etc.).

1. What reason(s) might this be happening *other* than an explicit tweak/override somewhere in the file-chain?

2. Is there a way of debugging which would identify the culprit (which I can't seem to find)? For example, can I print out the list of Accidental properties next to each accidental, like you can with spacing properties?

Here's a guess, the only other obvious thing I can think of. Is there something in another staff that is causing the offset? Does this happen when you use Emmentaler for the music font?

I looked at the internals section and there is the 'extra-spacing-width property that is set to '(-0.2 . 0) by default. Not sure if setting that to '(0 . 0) would change it, but maybe. Not sure when it changed, exactly, but some time between when the 'parent-alignment-... properties were added and now.

HTH,
Abraham
