What's wrong with NonMusicalPaperColumn? You may use it for one-time changes together with overriding VerticalAxisGroup in \layout for general settings as Jean demonstrated. \layout { \context { \Staff \override VerticalAxisGroup.staff-staff-spacing.basic-distance = #20 } } << \new Staff { \repeat unfold 4 c'4 \break \overrideProperty Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn.line-break-system-details #'((alignment-distances . (40))) \repeat unfold 4 c'4 \break \repeat unfold 4 c'4 } \new Staff \repeat unfold 12 c'4 >> Cheers, Harm
