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. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
