Re: horizontal position of augmentation dots

[Pierre Perol-Schneider]

Hi Richard,

How about:

\version "2.20.0"
A = {f2~  f8. s16 s4 }
B = {bes,2~  
     \tweak Dots.extra-offset #'(-.8 . 0)
     bes,8. bes,32 a, bes,16 c d e }

\score {
\new Staff  <<
 \new Voice   {\voiceOne \clef bass \A }
 \new Voice   {\voiceTwo \B }
            >>
       }

Cheers,

Pierre

has the lower dotted note vertically aligned with the upper one (see
attached pdf). I thought it might be nicer to move the lower dot closer
to its notehead, but I couldn't find out how to do that. With a lot of
things there are properties to tweak but this didn't seem to the the
case for augmentation dots.
Perhaps someone could steer me in the right direction?
