I'm having trouble eliminating vertical space above an Ossia
snippet. This is the example of the manual, augmented to extend over
multiple lines:
\version "2.19.32"
\new Staff = "main" \relative {
\repeat unfold 4 { c''4 b d c} \break
\repeat unfold 4 { c4 b d c}
<<
{ c4 b d c }
\new Staff \with {
\remove "Time_signature_engraver"
alignAboveContext = #"main"
\magnifyStaff #2/3
firstClef = ##f
}
{ e4 d f e }
>>
\break
\repeat unfold 4 { c4 b d c}
c4 b c2
}
I had a demand to put the ossia closer to the below staff, and to
keep the distance between staffs the same.
Looking for old posts I found this one that claims to achieve this,
but it only solves the first demand with the padding property:
http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Ossia-distance-unwanted-vertical-spacing-td206336.html
So this is how my snippet looks like with this:
\version "2.19.32"
\new Staff = "main" \relative {
\repeat unfold 4 { c''4 b d c} \break
\repeat unfold 4 { c4 b d c}
<<
{ c4 b d c }
\new Staff \with {
\remove "Time_signature_engraver"
alignAboveContext = #"main"
\magnifyStaff #2/3
firstClef = ##f
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'default-staff-staff-spacing = #'(
(basic-distance . 0)
(minimum-distance . 0)
(padding . 1.5)
(stretchability . 90) )
}
{ e4 d f e }
>>
\break
\repeat unfold 4 { c4 b d c}
c4 b c2
}
The vertical distance above the ossia I could not reduce no matter how
much I tweaked the numbers in the override, and so the distance
between the two lines with ossia in the middle is different from the
rest. I also tried "staff-staff-spacing" instead of
"default-staff-staff-spacing" but there is no change.
Is it possible to reduce the vertical distance above the ossia? I
gave up and ended up doing the ossia with music included in a markup,
for the markup I know how to tweak all vertical distances.
