Hello,
Sometimes stems push things that are outside-staff further outside, even with things like TabStaff, which removes the Stem stencil. Take this, for example:
\version "2.23.0"
\new TabStaff \with {
\revert Stem.stencil
\revert TextScript.stencil
\consists "Timing_translator"
% \override Beam.quantized-positions = ##f
}{
\time 2/4
<< { a,8^A a'^B } \\ { c''4 r4 } >>
}
The B is significantly higher than the A, because the calculated stem sticks outside the staff. This happens even when the stem stencil isn't reverted, but I reverted it to show what I think is going on. It happens without the Timing_translator as well, though it's less pronounced.
I would like to completely shut off the internal stem calculation in order to get the A and the B on the same level, but I can't figure out how. I was able to shut off the calculation for stem lengths by setting Beam.quantized-positions to false, but this results in lilypond errors.
Thanks for the help!
