Hi, in the Documentation section about explicit vertical positioning, the four examples have too many measures per line. This makes the lines break in a funny way and garbles the examples quite a lot (see http://tinyurl.com/expl-vert-spacing). Although I thought I knew a bit about vertical spacing, it took me quite a while to connect the pictures to the text while reading this section (actually, I had to look at the code before it made sense). I suggest reducing the number of measures from 6 to 5 per line so that there are no unintended line breaks. Corresponding patches against master are attached (for the English and Spanish version separately, in case the latter is somehow automatically generated from the former).
Cheers, Max
