This is something that affects bar numbers, too:
%%% BUG (?) SNIPPET BEGINS
\version "2.25.24"
\layout {
\context {
\Score
\RemoveAllEmptyStaves
\override BarNumber.padding = 0.5
\override BarNumber.self-alignment-X = #0
\override BarNumber.direction = #DOWN
}
}
\new StaffGroup <<
\new Staff { \repeat unfold 6 { c'1 \break } }
\new Staff { R1 R1 \break \repeat unfold 4 { c'1 \break } }
>>
%%% BUG (?) SNIPPET ENDS
I haven’t yet been able to figure out how to automate a fix, so I just manually
tweak things (usually with the edition-engraver). In your case, I would add an
if to your titling block that added some padding above those page numbers where
the collision is occurring.
Sorry I don’t have a more automagic solution to offer — maybe someone else will
finally solve BOTH our [related] problems!? :)
Best,
Kieren.
