Re: Horizontal shifting of chords

[Robert Blackstone]

Hi Malte,

Many thanks for your reaction.

Did it help?
Sure, or rather, you gave me the solution for my problem with "\once \override 
Staff.BarLine.extra-spacing-width = #'(-10 . 10)".
I had never seen this anywhere up till now. So I didn't even have to use your 
testexample.
But I will definitely save it in my collection of LilyPond testfiles 

Thanks again.

Best regards,

Robert Blackstone
