Re: vertical spacing between systems for only part of a score
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.

Ah, I missed 'last page'. Perhaps all you need is
```
\paper {

and possibly combined with a \pageBreak at the place where you
want to page break to appear.

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!

Re: Increase vertical spacing between systems (Hartmut Leister)
Hello Lilypond users,
the only problem I was still having, was that some of those
paper-variable didn't work (see also [1]).
However this has already been topic some time ago here and James posted
[2] a solution.:
--snip--
Known issues and warnings
The \pageBreak command will not work within a \begin{lilypond} …
\end{lilypond} environment.
Many \paper block variables will also not work within a
\begin{lilypond} … \end{lilypond} environment. Use \newcommand with
\betweenLilyPondSystem in the preamble;
\newcommand{\betweenLilyPondSystem}[1]{\vspace{36mm}\linebreak}

Increase vertical spacing between systems
Hello Lilypond users,
I'm having a vertical spacing problem.
For a simple score (see [1]) I want to increase the vertical space
between stanza 2 and the next system (I've marked an occurence) just a
little bit.
I've looked into the documentation [2], but it doesn't seem to work.
What I don't want is to stretch the systems, like with
\paper{
ragged-last-bottom=##f
}
Thanks in advance.

Subject: the new vertical spacing between systems syntax
Concerning the examples in the manual, section 4.4.2:
4.4.2 Explicit staff and system positioning
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/notation/explicit-staff-and-system-positioning
I don't understand the reason that the variables that
override default spacing between systems:
#'line-break-system-details #'((X-offset . 20))
#'line-break-system-details #'((Y-offset . 40))
#'line-break-system-details #'((X-offset . 20) (Y-offset . 40))
#'line-break-system-details #'((alignment-distances . (15)))
#'line-break-system-details #'((X-offset . 20) (Y-offset . 40)
(alignment-distances . (15)))
are within one of the \new Voice brackets:
\new Voice { }
Since these vertical spacing over-rides are to
supposed to effect spacing between systems
why are is this syntax inserted within
just one of the voices of a system?
I would have thought that syntax to indicate
spacing between systems would have been
placed within the \score {} brackets before
any of the \new Staff brackets.
Is my question clear? Thank you for your help.
I believe it's because of this line:
when we override NonMusicalPaperColumn in the middle of note entry, use the
special \overrideProperty command
in the middle of note entry implies the commands are entered in a voice
block.

vertical spacing between systems
Dear LilyPond users, the last few days I've been trying some vertical spacing (in v2.14.2) and somehow I can't seem to understand the mechanics of the spacing between systems as explained herehttp://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/Vertical-spacing-between-systems. Even after copy-pasting the code and running it, I don't get the same results as in the example. It looks like *page-limit-inter-system-space* set to *true* gets ignored: my first page looks not-ragged while my last page is ragged (like in the default setting). Also using *between-system-space = 1.5\cm* seems to get ignored. Is this a bug or am I missing something? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

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: NR 4.4 Vertical spacing http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/notation/vertical-spacing.html Cheers, Xavier -- Xavier Scheuer x.sche...@gmail.com ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Vertical spacing between systems
I would like decrease the vertical space between systems of notes. If
found in the manual that I can manipulate this feature with
\set Staff.minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-4 . 4)
But in which way do I have to include this statement in the code?
Obviously it does not work in the way I tried it (see my code below).

% my code
\include hrnI.src
\version 2.2.1
% Set Font size
#(set-global-staff-size 18)
\score {
\hornOneNote
}
\paper{
\set Staff.minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-4 . 4)
#(set-paper-size a4)
linewidth = #(* mm 190)
}

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!
