Re: automatically place bars in a melody

[Jaime Oliver]

Hi Graham,

thanks for your response,

> What doesn't work about it?

1. it doesn't fill the bar to it's full capacity, some 4/4 bars have only 3 quarter notes worth, some have more.

2. when splitting notes with ties, the remainder (in the next bar) is not tied. that is: 

with "Completion_heads_engraver":

\time 4/4

c4 c4 c2.~ c4   

should produce:  c4 c4 c2~ | c4~ c4 ........or even better: c4 c4 c2~ | c2

but it produces:

c4 c4 c2~ | c4 c4
