\layout { \context { \Dynamics \override VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-relatedstaff-spacing.basic-distance = #0 } }I wonder why isn't this the default behaviour though, why would people want the Dynamic context so far away from the related staff. Would it be because that helps the dynamics being centralized in the PianoStaff?
Yes: for a single-staff instrument one wouldn’t normally use an extra Dynamics context.
You can make this your ‘personal’ default by using a stylesheet, though.
Anyway, I think it could be nice to document this at http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/expressive-marks-attached-to-notes#dynamics as, at least for me, the solution is far from obvious and the default behaviour isn't satisfactory for single staffed instruments.
I don’t think we can blow the documentation up with explanations for such particular use cases.
