End-of-piece trill?

[Trevor Bača]

Hi,

What's the right way to end a piece with a trill on the last note?


%%% EX 1 %%%

\version "2.9.11"

\new Staff {
  c'4
  d'4
  e'4
  f'4 \startTrillSpan \stopTrillSpan
}

%%% END EX 1 %%%

Example 1 causes the interpreter to say ...

Interpreting music...
257.ly:7:28: warning: can't find start of trill spanner
       f'4 \startTrillSpan
                           \stopTrillSpan
257.ly:7:12: warning: unterminated trill spanner
       f'4
           \startTrillSpan \stopTrillSpan[1]

... and produce no trill spanner.


%%% EX 2 %%%

\version "2.9.11"

\new Staff {
  c'4
  d'4
  e'4
  f'4 \startTrillSpan s4 \stopTrillSpan
}

%%% END %%%

Example 2 does produce the trill spanner, but with extra space at the
end of the piece.

Is there an explicit way to put a spanner on exactly one note?
