The attached example is admittedly not tiny,
Feeling guilty about that, I stayed up a bit past my bedtime and found that extremely large stretchability does have effect. \version "2.13.37" \paper { last-bottom-spacing #'stretchability = #200 } m = \repeat unfold 40 r2 \score { << \new Staff \m \new Staff \m \new Staff \m \new Staff \m \new Staff \m \new Staff \m \new Staff \m \new Staff \m \new Staff \m \new Staff \m >> } Given that stretchability defaults to be equal to space (typically 2-8 staff spaces) a value of 200 seems extreme, but that is what it takes to let the springs between the staves compress a little. Happy to have learned I was being a little stupid, Keith _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
