Thanks Harm,
does it still make sense to file bug reports for 2.24? Or does it  
occur in 2.26 too.
Anyway, that 'stand-alone property'... I must admit that I barely know  
what I'm doing, so a lot comes down to trial and error. I tried  
Glissando.to-barline and that didn't work. So I reasoned that as it  
has to with a right boundary, maybe it would work with bound-details  
included.

Your first work-around requires tweaking every time, the second one  
with the 'empty' voice seems more elegant to me, so that's what I'm  
going to try.

Thanks again,

harry
