Hi,
as others said already, I'd first try to use the fixed and flexible
vertical spacing \paper variables from
NR 4.1 Page layout as well as the flexible vertical spacing within
systems mechanisms from NR 4.4 Vertical spacing.
If you want some more fine tuning (and this seems to be your request)
look into the next chapter
NR 4.4.2 Explicit staff and system positioning
It's all manual ofcourse and has to be applied at line-begin, i.e.
best after a manual \break but then it works pretty nicely.
\version "2.18.2"
#(set-global-staff-size 11)
\paper { annotate-spacing = ##t }
#(ly:set-option 'debug-skylines #t)
\relative c''
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Voice {
\repeat unfold 4 { c1 \break }
\overrideProperty
Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn.line-break-system-details
#'((alignment-distances . (30)))
\repeat unfold 4 { c1 \break }
}
\new Voice {
\repeat unfold 8 c
}
>>
HTH,
Harm
