<https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.25/Documentation/notation/setting-minimum-lengths-for-spanners> For some layout objects, the ‘minimum-length’ property becomes effective only if the ‘set-spacing-rods’ procedure is called explicitly. To do this, the ‘springs-and-rods’ property should be set to ‘ly:spanner::set-spacing-rods’. For example, the minimum length of a glissando has no effect unless the ‘springs-and-rods’ property is set: % default e' \glissando c'' % not effective alone \once \override Glissando.minimum-length = 20 e' \glissando c'' % effective only when both overrides are present \once \override Glissando.minimum-length = 20 \once \override Glissando.springs-and-rods = #ly:spanner::set-spacing-rods e' \glissando c'' [image src="lilypond/ea/lily-ab27b5c9.png" alt="[image of music]"] -- David Kastrup
