I don't understand this "so". The following should still be penalized since they are deficiencies even on a ragged bottom: a) a page which is considerably less full than the previous page b) every page break, and most certainly inside of a system, should carry a penalty, giving Lilypond some incentive to compress systems iff it helps to avoid using more pages than necessary. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
