after rethinking I wonder why one has to use such special functions - doesn't LilyPond already do a good job on vertically spreading the systems on one ore more pages. I've constructed a small example where the default settings produce output with different distances between staves to avoid collisions: musI = \relative c' { \repeat "unfold" 6 { c4 d e f } \break \repeat "unfold" 6 { c4 d e f } \bar "|." } musII = \relative c' { \repeat "unfold" 6 { c,,4 d' e''' f,, } \repeat "unfold" 6 { c4 d e f } } \score { << \new Staff \musI \new Staff \musII \new Staff \musI \new Staff \musI \new Staff \musI \new Staff \musI >> } please note the different distances in the 1st and 2nd system - do you have an example where this doesn't work?
