rounded-boxes and \textLengthOn

[Emilio Millan]

Hi again all. I've got another question.

The LilyPond code below produces the music in the attached image file.

The first three measures are, I think, correct behavior and the fourth
is not. (Pretty obscure, I'd admit.)

Can anyone think of a workaround to use rounded-boxes as in the fourth
measure but without the stair-stepping?

Thanks!
Emilio
