OK -- now I can see what's going on. =)
1. If I'm not mistaken, you're trying to adjust not the overall spacing, but
specific spacing choices/proportions based on note length. It's easy to match
the length of the entire snippet to the desired output/example -- by tweaking
common-shortest-duration -- but you want (e.g.) more space left for a dotted
eighth than Lilypond's default. I believe this isn't controlled by
"common-shortest-duration" only, but by other settings — I don't know the exact
details, but I imagine there's a relatively easy way to set these proportions
as you would like them. Maybe someone else can answer more completely.
2. The specific issue of the extra space given by the half-note looks like a
bug to me. [Hence the cross-post to the bug list.]
Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.
Kieren.
