Dear All,
By default, the distance between the header and the first system of a score
is less than the distance between systems (I think the basic distance for
the former is 5 staff spaces, and 12 for the latter). Is there any way to
get lilypond-book to mimic this behaviour? There seems to be only one
variable for controlling the distance between systems
(\betweenLilyPondSystem) that is also called in between the header and the
first system.
I can understand that in a full score the extra space isn't that important,
but in a text document with musical examples the space sometimes looks
terrible. An example of what I mean is pasted below.
\documentclass{article}
\newcommand{\betweenLilyPondSystem}[1]{\vspace{2em plus0pt
minus12pt}\linebreak}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
\lipsum[1]
\begin{figure}[!h]
\begin{lilypond}
music = \repeat unfold 50 b
\header { composer = "composer" }
<< \new Staff \music \new Staff \music >>
\end{lilypond}
\end{figure}
\end{document}
Apart from solutions to this problem I would also like to hear what
settings people use for \betweenLilyPondSystem. This thorny issue is one of
the reasons I mostly don't use lilypond-book.
Thanks in advance,
Kevin
