[JW Lua] Calculate exact horizontal note position (in EPV/cm)

[Jan Angermüller]

Hi Bart,

have you looked into FCEntryMetrics ? That may help you.
FCCellMetrics only handles the measure metrics,
note entry metrics are handled by FCEntryMetrics.

By reading the FCCellMetrics.MusicStartPos-property, I can figure out the exact position of the first note-entry of a measure (which might be a rest). But I haven't been able to figure out the exact positions of the other note-entries of a measure.
