Hi Kaj, hi Lilypond users,

I also would like to say that again that spacing is a bit daunting. But I hope
with the help you got here, it is possible to adjust the spacing you need. The
deeper understanding will come with time and it is difficult if one wants to
understand everything at once.

To make the use of spacing settings easier, I put the most relevant settings on
this page:
http://joramberger.de/files/LilypondSpacing.pdf

The aim of this is not to explain everything – that is better done in the docs –
but to give a visual summary of the spacing settings and an example (on the
left) how to change them. If you know that there are different settings in the
paper and in the layout block and that there are fixed distances (in mm, cm, in)
and flexible spacings (minimum-distance, basic-distance, padding,
strechability), then this cheat sheet should make it easier to adjust all these
to your liking.

Cheers,
Joram

PS: Lyrics and other nonstaff spacings are to be done.
