Re: Needing space after a user-defined ornament

Hi Alasdair,

Many thanks indeed - that works a treat!  How does one find out about these things?  I had tried just

• \tweak extra-spacing-width #'(2 . 3) which hadn't worked.  Clearly I needed the extra space property of text.

I tried what you did first, and it didn’t work for me either. When a tweak I expect to work doesn’t work right away, I usually try adding an explicit grob name next, just in case that fixes it — and in this case it did!

I don't understand this discussion. Over here,

\version "2.24.1"

ttr = #(define-event-function (placement) (pair?)
        #{
         -\tweak extra-spacing-width #'(1 . 5)
         -\tweak extra-offset #placement
         -\markup { \fontsize #4 \musicglyph #"scripts.rcomma" }
#} )

\relative c'' {
  g8. ^\ttr #'(2.5 . -3.0) a16
}

produces the same output as

\version "2.24.1"

ttr = #(define-event-function (placement) (pair?)
        #{
         -\tweak TextScript.extra-spacing-width #'(1 . 5)
         -\tweak extra-offset #placement
         -\markup { \fontsize #4 \musicglyph #"scripts.rcomma" }
#} )

\relative c'' {
  g8. ^\ttr #'(2.5 . -3.0) a16
}

What am I missing?
