Description
Your idea
It would be nice if whole tones and whole rests entered with the keyboard were output centered in the final bar, as shown in the example. With large scores this otherwise creates a very unsettling picture
Problem to be solved
Whole Rests, wenn entered with the keyboard are shown left in bars, instead of been centered like whole rests in empty bars. In final bars whole notes are placed left, instead of been centered like in printed scores

Research direction
The issue names no source file, test, or entry point. Reproduce keyboard-entered whole notes and whole rests in a final bar, compare them with empty-bar whole rests and the provided example, then trace the desktop notation layout code; done means the final-bar elements are centered consistently in the score.
