Comment #6 on issue 1290 by [email protected]: Skyline compaction is
going overboard sometimes
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1290
Global increase of padding, either vertical (comment 2) or horizontal
(comment 3), was generally rejected at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2010-11/msg00001.html>.
We overlooked in that discussion, however, the fact that horizontal padding
can be applied to Systems as distinct from VerticalAxisGroup objects (see
IR 3.2.106 system-interface) :
\score {
\repeat unfold 80 { <c'''-1 e'''-3 g'''-5> c' <c,-1 e,-3 g,-5> c' }
\layout {
\context {
\Score
\override System #'skyline-horizontal-padding = #2
}
}
}
Padding at the System level avoids the unwanted extra space inside systems
that one gets by applying comment 3 directly.
There is regression, in that System::skyline-horizontal-padding no longer
affects the layout of systems on a page. I could not find any evidence
that anyone took advantage of the old behavior, however, so this remains a
purely hypothetical problem.
