I added your suggestions for the spacing values to the paper blocks for the scores, and when I turn on annotate-spacing I can see that each stave is the same distance from the top margin, but for some reason they don't get positioned at the same height in the Scribus frame. So I've asked on the Scribus forum, as it looks like the problem is on their side of the fence. Well after a bit more delving around I found that the problem was due to Scribus for some reason applying an arbitrary small X and Y offset of a few points to the position of the Lilypond PDF output in the render frames. Once I zeroed out those values everything is nicely aligned. Nick ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Horizontally aligning staves in Scribus render frames
I'm using lilypond source code in render frames in a Scribus two column
layout to put short two bar single stave exercises at a dozen or more to
the page. The render frames are horizontally aligned and of the same
height, but the problem I haven't been able to solve is that of getting
the staves in the left and right columns to align horizontally. Setting
top-system-spacing #'padding to the same value in left and right column
scores and turning #'stretchability off doesn't align the staves, it
aligns the highest part of what is in each short score. What LP code can
I use to get the staves themselves to align, rather than the highest
part of the notes?
Here's an example of the LP code in one of the render frames. Keeping
everything the same except the notes doesn't keep the left and right
staves aligned. I realise that once I have the notes in I can fiddle the
top-system-spacing #'padding value for one of the staves until they're
pretty much aligned, but with multiple pages with up to eight of these
pairs on each page, that's something I'd rather avoid if possible.
