There's one limitation though (and it does not feature in the
documentation): baseline-skip will find a compromise between the vertical
extent of text in the lines and the baseline-skip value, the bigger one
being used. This can result in irregular base line distances as illustrated
in the following snippet:
\markup {
\override #'(baseline-skip . 1)
\override #'(line-width . 4) \justify { The eee heh . . . . . . x x x x f
f f x x x f f f f f f j f f f f }
}
Look at the line spacing between the lines with dots, the lines with 'x' or
the 'tallest' lines with 'f' and 'j'.
You can make baseline-skip yield regular baseline intervals by making it as
big as to avoid these problems. The default value of 3 seems to yield
regular baseline intervals.
There is probably a way to specify "strict" base line spacings, but I
haven't found it yet.
Best regards,
Olivier
