Thank you very much, your suggestions helped the situation. I have two more issues.

Another \layout vs. \paper issue I'm having is the following: \layout { \context { \StaffGroup \override StaffGrouper #'staff-staff-spacing #'basic-distance = #12 } } This snippet works, but if I try and place it in \paper, as follows, the staff-staff spacing does not work. \paper { default-staff-staff-spacing #'basic-distance = #12 } system-system-spacing *does* work in \paper, so I'm confused as to why default-staff-staff-spacing does not. > \teeny is defined in /ly/property-init.ly > teeny = \set fontSize = #-3 > Choose a lower value. Works well, thanks. Is there a way to make this portable so changes to /Applications/LilyPond.app//Contents/Resources/share/lilypond/current/ly would not be required? If there's a way to avoid having to change system files in future upgrades, I'd appreciate the suggestion. And one last item: what is the tweak to pad more space between the last system on a page and the copyright and/or tagline? I've gone through a amount of changes but can't determine how to add more space so the copyright does not look to be part of the lyrics *grin* Thank you, - Eric _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
