Re: Issues about optical spacing

[Tomohiro Tatejima]

Hello,

Yes I am not a specialist of music engraving and certainly I must respect why the implementer made current implementation.

Is there anyone who knows the reason of current behavior?

Regards,

As for first issue, I can understand that `f d` does not need so much
space between notes as `f f`, as `d` does not collide with the stem of
`f`. But what I cannot understand is that `f a` or `f b` needs more
space than `f f` or `f g` (assume all notes are \stemUp'd). I suppose
they should be given same spacing as `f f` or `f g`.

I’m sure that this was given a lot of thought when the optical spacing was implemented and they clearly knew what they were doing. “seems a little odd to me” is not a reason for changing it, you’ll need to provide really good evidence why this should be changed.

Best, Simon
