ragged-last-bottom doesn't seem to affect the space between score blocks, so multiple score blocks are spaced out evenly on the last page, even if ragged-last-bottom is set to true. Is this a bug? It doesn't seem to be fixed in version 2.19.80. Fortunately, there are several workarounds available. > > 2. Is there a way to control that gap? That gap is controlled with the score-system-spacing variable in the \paper block. Try adding this line to your \paper block: score-system-spacing = #'((basic-distance . 0) (padding . 3) (stretchability . 0) (minimum-distance . 0)) Best, Edward -------------- Dr. Edward Neeman Adjunct Instructor, South Georgia State College Collaborative Pianist, Valdosta State University, Georgia Artist Faculty, ELMS Conservatory, Jakarta [email protected] www.neemanpianoduo.com On Fri, Nov 17, 2017 at 9:39 AM, Louis Guillaume <[email protected]> wrote: > On 11/17/17 9:00 AM, Ben wrote: >> >> On 11/17/2017 1:19 AM, Louis Guillaume wrote: >>> >>> On 11/16/17 8:18 PM, Ben wrote: >>>> >>>> On 11/16/2017 5:11 PM, Louis Guillaume wrote: >>>>> >>>>> \score >>>>> { >>>>> ... >>>>> } >>>> >>>> >>>> Hello, >>>> >>>> Your code does not compile, could you share a working example so we can >>>> help you better with the indent, etc? >>>> >>>> Also, let us know what version you're using... >>>> >>>> Thanks! >>>> >>> >>> >>> Ok!
