I would like to reduce the vertical space between staves (aka 1-stave systems) within one \score on a page that has two other \scores.
Once the rest of the content is added, I want to force the first \score's staves much closer together and leave all the default automatic spacing in place for the second two scores. This will allow all three scores to fit on one page. I've tried the \overrideProperty #"Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn" approach, with no changes, I've tried next-padding and next-space with som bad results and lots of typing (a new override before each \break). The \paper values affect the whole document, and don't seem to be able to be updated in the middle of the page. I have some minor questions, too: (1) My quoted-string fingerings lost their fingering markup and have a default appearance. How do re-markup these strings to look like single-character fingering numbers (small, bold)? (2) I'm using ellipses (...) in the strings in (1) to indicate the same fingering going on. Is there a way to draw a horizonal line, instead, about 2cm long folowing the fingering? Maybe marked-up lyrics, like one would do for "Al------l---e-------lu---u---ia"? But instead, "1+2----------" marked-up to look small and bold and left-aligned with the note, and spreading under the next note(s) (where the "---" are horizontal lines, not really dashes) (3) When I put the \score \header directly after the \score, it is ignored (I think)--well, it behaves badly, the one from the next \score is used. Does \header have to go at the end of the \score? (4) Can I put these (repeated in each \score) into a \Score \Context? \set fingeringOrientations = #'(down) #(set-accidental-style 'modern) Or somewhere else where they are not repeated?
