I've had some cases where minimal breaking looks really ugly, and since that score will have ~50 pages and is supposed to be printed, that's not an option for me.

The problem with that approach is that it will really leave no space between subsequent markups, so there will not be any pixel space between the headline / title and between each of the columns... Instead, there will be several lines of space at the bottom of the page :-( Cheers, Reinhold -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Reinhold Kainhofer, Vienna University of Technology, Austria email: [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://reinhold.kainhofer.com/ * Financial and Actuarial Mathematics, TU Wien, http://www.fam.tuwien.ac.at/ * K Desktop Environment, http://www.kde.org, KOrganizer maintainer * Chorvereinigung "Jung-Wien", http://www.jung-wien.at/ _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
