I'm in the process of upgrading LP code from version 2.2.0 to 2.18.

In the following section:
%%%- start snipp, li { white-space: pre-wra\layout{     \context {         
\PianoStaff         \accepts Dynamics         \override 
VerticalAlignment.forced-distance = #6     } }%%%- end snip
Not being familiar with such early LP version, I'm assuming the original 
typesetter set a fixed distance between the staves in each system throughout 
the piece.

Convert-ly is unable to update this forced distance override, giving this 
warning:"...2.11.15, Not smart enough to convert VerticalAlignment 
#'forced-distance. Use the `alignment-offsets' sub-property of 
NonMusicalPaperColumn #'line-break-system-details to set fixed distances 
between staves. 2.11.23, 2.11.35,..."
I'm not understanding how to re-create the intended forced distance between 
each staff with the relevant section of NR, as the examples given involve 
vertical positioning of each staff within a 
page:http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/explicit-staff-and-system-positioning

Any ideas of how to set this?
