Just to clarify what I wrote Wed, 24 Apr 2024 23:46:22 -0500 "I don't like to stretch the responses music much at all, …" The sole control I exercise on the layout of each V is to set the individual indent = NN that's added to the global ragged-right = ##f ragged-last = ##f. I choose the values by trial and error, to give the first (or sole) line of a response a balanced appearance compared with the full-width lines in the rest of the setting. Overcompression beyond a certain point will lead to LP's addition of a linebreak anyway. In the thumbnail score that I previously attached, the values of NN were: 70, 40, 110, 20, 0, 80, 50, 70, 80, 40, 60, 0, the Lord's Prayer having no intonation, and the Amens being labelled, with no cue or indent required.

It's possible to set your extract, make all the checks, and get no
warning messages, but it's tedious, and means using lyric durations.
(check1.ly, attached.) Using addlyrics instead of lyric durations
is a trade-off, and I assume the documenter had already made that
choice when they wrote:
"Note that bar check marks in lyrics are evaluated at the musical
moment when the syllable following the check mark is processed. If
the lyrics are associated with the notes of a voice which has a rest
at the beginning of a bar, then no syllable can be located at the
start of that bar and a warning will be issued if a bar check mark
is placed in the lyrics at that position."
One compromise you can make is to leave out any bar checks that occur
within lyrics that happen to cross barlines. You can still add a
barNumberCheck as long as you bear in mind that its number applies
to the measure of the /next/ lyric. (check2.ly, attached.)
Alternatively, you can leave the bar and bar number checks in place,
as you suggest above, but use the tersely documented¹ expect-warning
feature to silence just these warnings. (check3.ly, attached.) That
will prevent their spam from obscuring other, significant warnings
amd errors.
Each expect-warning line at the top of the file (which is where they
must all be placed) will silence one warning with the corresponding
text. They must be placed in the corresponding order as well.²
Run check3.ly with its expect-warning line commented out, and again
with it duplicated: you will see how it works, and that extra
expect-warning lines are treated as errors, not ignored.
AIUI the expect-warning string has to match the warning message from
the start of the text, but can be truncated, ie expect-warning
"bar check failed" would still match the warning in check3.ly.
¹ Internals References §4 Scheme functions (alphabetical)
page 872 in version 2.25.10
² But particularly for bar checks, bear this in mind:
"If successive bar checks are off by the same musical interval,
only the first warning message is displayed. This allows the
warning to focus on the source of the timing error."
(Notation Reference.)

David.

Re: Lyrics and Barchecks
It is known (and documented) that bar checks need to be used with care
within Lyrics contexts. I was thinking about this problem and wondered
if a custom engraver would be able to assist. (The actual bar checks
are implemented in an iterator, presumably because it results in faster
processing when skipping typesetting.) At this time, I am not sure if
custom iterators can be created within Scheme, so consider this just a
proof-of-concept using a Scheme engraver.
It would seem that for the case of lyrics, the behavior of a so-called
"lyric bar check" would be less precise than that of the normal bar
check. Instead of requiring the bar check to occur only at the first
moment of a measure, the logic instead simply checks that no lyrics have
been created from the beginning of the measure to the time of the lyric
bar check. That is to say, the lyric bar check should be the first
"thing" that occurs in a measure when it appears.
Attached is the proof-of-concept code.
NOTE: The final lyric bar check intentionally is an example of a failing
case. Here is the expected compiled output:
lyric-bar-check.ly:64:54: warning: lyric bar check failed
\addlyrics { | lo -- rem | ips -- um | do -- lor sit
| a -- met }
Also NOTE: The code includes a toplevel-music-function that converts
normal bar checks that occur within Lyrics contexts into lyric bar
checks that the custom engraver handles. This was done so that the user
could input lyric bar checks using the same symbol as for normal music
but get the unique behavior. Not sure if this transparent approach is
best, as it could be seen as surprising to some users.

Re: Lyrics and Barchecks
William,
Thanks. I agree that the barcheck warning message is cryptic. It appears
that this issue happens when the lyric is attached to notes that are tied
across a measure boundary. Unfortunately I can't change the third measure
- that motif from my simple example is used frequently in the pieces I am
working on at the moment. It's a catch-22. I start ignoring the barcheck
warnings because of the lyrics that cross measure boundaries and then miss
the legit warnings from where I've messed up the lyrics. The good news is
that even with the warnings, the output is exactly what I need it to be.
Thanks

Re: Highlighting lyric words
Thanks, that does seem to work at least in a small test case. I saved
the function off to an include file and will try it on a larger set of
lyrics later. It does seem like a bit of work to do something that
could a base lilypond feature since it would seem like background
highlighting of some words in lyrics wouldn't be that uncommon. That
type of feature is currently available for staff notes.
Thanks for the help.

This is not an answer to your question, but possibly still part
of a solution to your problem with "bunched up". If you have a
movement with sections of mostly long notes and other sections
with lots of short notes, you can improve the horizontal (I know
you asked about vertical) spacing significantly, by inserting
\newSpacingSection at suitable places. Compare the following two
examples:
\version "2.24.0"
\fixed c' {
% First a long passage with only long notes
\repeat unfold 10 { c2 d | }
% Then a passage with only short notes
\repeat unfold 20 {c32 d e f g f e d }
% Finally, long notes again
\repeat unfold 10 { c2 d | }
}
% Same with \newSpacingSection:
\fixed c' {
% First a long passage with only long notes
\repeat unfold 10 { c2 d | }
\newSpacingSection
% Then a passage with only short notes
\repeat unfold 20 {c32 d e f g f e d }
\newSpacingSection
% Finally, long notes again
\repeat unfold 10 { c2 d | }
}

You can indeed accomplish this, with a little bit of rearranging. \paper blocks
can go a few
different places, one of which is a \bookpart And as \bookparts are by default
separated
by a page break, and you are (apparently) wanting a page break between the two
movements, this is a bit of two birds, one stone thing here.
Basically, put each movement into it's own \bookpart. You can then give each
movement
it's own paper block, while still having a global paper block if you want one.
The bookparts
will also take care of the page break for you, so that can be removed. You'll
end up with a
structure something like:
\version "2.24.1"
\paper { global \paper settings }
FirstMovement = { ... }
\bookpart {
\paper { \paper setting specific to the 1st movement }
\score {
\new Staff { \FirstMovement }
\layout {}
}
}
SecondMovement = { ... }
\bookpart {
\paper { \paper setting specific to the 2nd movement }
\score {
\new Staff { \SecondMovement }
\layout {}
}
}
\bookpart sections can have their own \paper block, even their own \header
blocks. For a
bit more see:

This is simple, but perhaps it would work for you. I've stretched (what I
thought were) over-compressed lines by just putting in a manual line break
before and after the line I want to stretch. Lilypond then spreads the
demarcated line out to fill the space.

Very simple, but not obvious from my cropped screenshot,
I right-justify the responses.
I don't stretch the versicles at all, and I set them with a breve
or semibreve (reciting note) and stemless crochets, avoiding any
indication of rhythm. (With the commonly used Ferial versicles,
only "O God make speed to save us" is entirely crochets, with no
reciting note.)
I don't like to stretch the responses music much at all, because
I find that makes it more difficult to read. So a short V pair
will have a wide margin to its left.
Right-justification is used by Shorter House in their Book of New
Responses, and by Church Music Society in their 1993 Watkins Shaw
edition of Preces and Responses. OTOH the older Atkins/Fellowes
edition of the latter had its V placed centrally.
I've attached a much-reduced illustration of one set (Smith/Stone).
On page 2, the choir sings everything after the 2nd versicle;
page 4 has the Lord's Prayer; and the final line of music is a
concatenation of the three Amens.
I've also attached my Plainlayout file, used here for the versicles.
I set the size externally because I use much larger sizes than here
with less familiar plainsong, like the Gospels of the Passion, and
the dreaded liturgical tracts.
plainlayout = \layout {
\plainlayout
#(layout-set-staff-size 9)

David.

Spacing between staves
I may be missing something in the documentation here.
I have a two-movement score for a single melodic instrument. Each
movement fits conveniently onto a single page.
I realise this is not a MWE, but I just wanted to specify the overall
layout of my input
\version "2.24.1"
\paper { ... }
FirstMovement = { ... }
\score {
\new Staff { \FirstMovement }
\layout {}
}
\pageBreak
SecondMovement = { ... }
\score {
\new Staff { \SecondMovement }
\layout {}
}
What I want is for the second movement, on the second page, to have
slightly increased vertical spacing between staves. (It has 32nd and
even a few 64th notes, and just looks a little "bunched up" to my eyes.)
I can only see ways to set the vertical spacing globally in the \paper
block.
What I am looking for is a way to say "Increase the vertical spacing
between staves from this point onwards.
Is that possible?
Thanks in advance

This example is the "standard" - not the default - if you click on it
you see it uses:
\set figuredBassAlterationDirection = #RIGHT
\set figuredBassPlusDirection = #RIGHT
\override BassFigureAlignment.stacking-dir = #DOWN
and the first of these is what you need.
