Re: How to have separate \paper variables for different scores in the same book?
An example of what? I am not reporting a bug, I am asking what the correct
method is to achieve a certain outcome. I listed my attempts in order to
illustrate things I had already tried.
I am using the very latest development version (2.17.26), but I also use the
stable version via lilybin.com (2.16.2) when I am away from my home
computer.
The manual indicates that 'system-system-spacing' should go in a paper
block, and so the following example, as I now know, will not have the
intended effect:
/\score {
\new Staff << \repeat unfold 2 { \repeat unfold 16 { c'4 } \break } >>
\layout {
system-system-spacing #'basic-distance = #99
}
}
\score {
\new Staff << \repeat unfold 2 { \repeat unfold 16 { g'4 } \break } >>
}
\paper { system-system-spacing #'basic-distance = #16 }/
I was curious to know whether there was a proper way to go about adjusting
system spacing on a score-by-score basis.

Sure?

Yes, it compiles but has no effect.

How to have separate \paper variables for different scores in the same book?
Here is what I want to achieve:
Two small scores (an SATB hymn, followed by an optional descant line) one
after the other on a single page.
My Lilypond file is laid out like this:
/\score {
% music for the first score here (SATB hymn)
}
\score {
% music for the second score here (optional descant line)
}
paper {
system-system-spacing #basic-distance = #20
}/
I want the system-system-spacing variable to apply to the first score only.
I have tried putting the paper block in the first \score block, like this
/\score {
% music for first score here
\paper {
% paper variables here
}
}
\score {
% music for second score
}/
but it is apparently not allowed.
Neither is putting the system-system-spacing setting inside an individual
score's \layout block.
Neither is putting two \paper blocks, one after each score (the second one
overwrites the value of the first).
If I wrap the first and second scores in their own \bookpart, each with
their own \paper block, then the second score appears on its own page, which
isn't what I want.
What's the best and simplest way to achieve this? Thanks for any
suggestions!
Dominic
