A quick web search for something like "lilypond docs 2.24 vertical spacing"
will probably get you to this page:

https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.24/Documentation/notation/vertical-spacing

This will help you to complete a small working example for us, or you may
just figure it out yourself!

Re: Inquiry on Adjusting Vertical Spacing Between Systems in Automatically Wrapped Lines

2024-08-24 Thread Carl Sorensen
Peter,

To accomplish this you need to adjust the system-system spacing.  The
documentation for doing this adjustment is found in the Notation Reference,
section 4.1.4.

https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.24/Documentation/notation/flexible-vertical-spacing-paper-variables

Probably all of section 4.1 is good to read to help you get started on this.

If you have specific questions after trying to adjust the system-system
spacing, then a specific question could be more easily answered on the list.

Hope this helps,

Carl

As usual, please provide an example (both LilyPond code and an
attached image) that shows what you have tried so far and how it
fails.  Ideally, please also provide a (rough) image of what you
really want to do.

Most people won't even look at your verbose description because it

Inquiry on Adjusting Vertical Spacing Between Systems in Automatically Wrapped Lines

2024-08-23 Thread Peter X
Dear LilyPond Community,

I hope this message finds you well.

I am currently working on a project where I have a score that is long
enough to automatically wrap onto a new line. This score involves a single
instrument, but the question would apply equally well to scores involving
multiple instruments.

When LilyPond automatically wraps the music onto a new line, I am
interested in understanding how I can manually adjust the vertical spacing
between these automatically wrapped lines. Specifically, I’m looking for
the best method or property to control this spacing to achieve the desired
layout.

Would you be able to advise on the most effective approach to influence the
vertical spacing between these systems? Is there a particular override or
setting that is recommended for this?

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance. I look forward to any
guidance you can provide.

Best regards,

Peter

Hi Werner, everyone else...

Oops, sorry...i didn't click "reply all"!

I also apologize for not searching the archive more thoroughly.  Googgle 
searches arent always the best thing...

Here are two examples from the score i'm working on now.  The first one is 
confusing because of the "sim" which is too close to the system below.(Yes, 
I know i can tweak the position of it, and i will, but sometimes articulations 
and expressions and markup can get really cluttered)

The second example, the "harm 12" and the ligature to the following note are 
problems.  (I will reposition the ligature to the top of the expression)

Neither of these are serious problems, but I'm sure you can imagine cases, 
especially in contemporary, or more avant-garde music,  where individually 
spaced systems might very well be a concern.

A third example might be where, instead of spreading out the last few measures 
to the very bottom of the page, (as per \paper {  ragged-last-bottom = ##f 
etc.)  a printer might want to only spread out the systems to cover 2/3 of the 
page, leaving room for text, images, etc, at the bottom of the page.   i.e., a 
final page might have only three systems instead of seven...this would look 
weird if it were evenly spread all the way to the bottom.

Not a big deal, really, but there it is.

Thanks for all  the help!

No, as mentioned in the thread.  You should also look up the mentioned
issue to get more information.  I also recommend to do some searching
in the 'lilypond-user' mailing list archive, which collects LilyPond
wisdom for more than 20 years...

The issue gives a work-around; there are certainly more available.

However, in general, it is a rather uncommon request – you shalt not
question LilyPond's vertical spacing decisions :-) To be serious: what
is your exact use case?  In most cases it looks weird if the vertical
spacing suddenly changes.

vertical spacing between systems for only part of a score

dear Lilypond

I would like to increase the vertical distance between systems for a specific 
area in a score.

I know how to change vertical distance by using the \paper {system-system 
etc... route, but that governs the entire score.   Here, I want to make 7 lines 
spread out to fill the entire last page, but leave the other pages alone.

Is there an "override" command i can use, or a way to add padding by typing it 
into the appropriate spot in one of the voices?  (BTW, i have a separate 
"spacing voice" in my score)

thanks!

Oh gosh yes!

I didn't notice you were referring to 2.12.

There were huge changes in 2.14.

Please upgrade to the latest stable and you will have much better
control (and documentation) over spacing.

http://lilypond.org/download.html

Note you should also probably run the 'convert.ly' script (after you
have installed the latest code) on any lilypond scores that you are
using that are still being compiled by 2.12 to make sure that any
significant syntax changes we have made in the code are detected and
converted in your *.ly files.

I believe it's because of this line:

when we override NonMusicalPaperColumn in the middle of note entry, use the

"in the middle of note entry" implies the commands are entered in a voice

You are using LilyPond version 2.14.2 but you read the doc version 2.12,
that's the point!

The vertical spacing system has been completely rewritten between 2.12
ans 2.14.  The mechanism is different and so is the syntax that should
be used.  Please see the doc version 2.14; read it carefully because
the new system is far more powerful, and also a bit more complex to
understand.  Don't hesitate to come back if you experience some
difficulties in using it.  In that case a minimal example of your code
would be useful.

The 2.14 doc about vertical spacing can be found here:
NR 4.1.4 Flexible vertical spacing \paper variables
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/notation/flexible-vertical-spacing-_005cpaper-variables.html
and here:

It's in 4.6.2 of the GDP Learning Manual, but not in the
Notation Reference, as far as I can see.

It's A4 by default, but you can change that easily.

On the first side of my score the bottom of the last staff is cut

Dear Mats,
I've read the mentioned chapter in the manual and I know understand,
that my problem had to do with the "TimeSig"-context.
But now I have another problem.
On the first side of my score the bottom of the last staff is cut
off. I don't know why.
Here is the layout of the file:

\version "2.11.34"

\paper { 
   ragged-bottom = ##f
ragged-last-bottom = ##t 
bottom-margin = 15\mm
horizontal-shift = 5 \mm
page-limit-inter-system-space = ##t
systemSeparatorMarkup = \slashSeparator

   }


\layout{
  \context {
\type "Engraver_group"
\consists "Time_signature_engraver"
\consists "Axis_group_engraver"
\consists "Text_spanner_engraver"
\consists "Text_engraver"
\consists "Dynamic_engraver"
\name "TimeSig"
\override TimeSignature #'font-size = #4
 \override TimeSignature #'break-visibility = ##(#f #t #t)
  }
  \context {
\Score \accepts TimeSig}
\context { \TimeSig \override VerticalAxisGroup
#'minimum-Y-extent = 
    #'(-1 . 5) }

Please read the sections on "Vertical spacing between systems" and
"Page formatting" in the manual. Note that this is one aspect that
has changed significantly between versions 2.10 and 2.11, so some
but not all of the more verbose description in the manual for version
2.11 is relevant also for 2.10.

I mean the space between the last  (e.g."double bass") and the first

How can I do this?

Thanks for support,

check section 11.2.2 in the manual:
\layout{
\context { \Staff \override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = 
#'(-7 . 7)
}
}

Dear Lilypond-users,
I have a question concerning the layout.
I want to increase the space between between systems.
I mean the space between the last  (e.g."double bass") and the first
(e.g."piccolo") staff of the score.
How can I do this?
Thanks for support,

I've been putting it in the
\score  {
\notes  {
 \set Staff.minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-4 . 4)
section, and it seems to work there.
I will supply a more complete score if you can't get it working.
Good luck!
