I'd like to take just a slight tangent on the recent thread about increasing system-system-spacing. I often have scores that show up with uneven spacing. A tiny example is attached.
First, is it syntactically correct? And second, how can I get the system spacing more even? The example intentionally doesn't alter system-system spacing anywhere. Instead, it just uses ragged-last-bottom = ##f. I would like the spacing to be equally distributed. There are 8 gaps between the 9 systems, but the system-system gaps are unequal in size. How can I get the systems to be equally spaced? Thanks! Jim
