Hi Everyone,
I've been working with Lilypond 2.11.0 for a while and recently tried
2.11.9.
When running the new version the following statements are ignored
\override Staff.VerticalAxisGroup #'Y-extent = #'(0 . 10).
We no longer look at VerticalAxisGroup #'Y-extent when it comes to
vertically aligning systems (this is so that we can take the outline of the
system into account, not just its maximum size). You can still use
minimum-Y-extent, though.
I've been playing around with getting more even output from Lilypond same
number
of systems per page and the same space between staves.
I've even managed in a Concerto Grosso score to have a seperate different
space
between the concertino groups and ripieno groups all the way through the
piece.
Staff.VerticalAxisGroup #'Y-extent is probably not the best way to do this.
If you just want to have fixed distances between all the systems throughout
the piece, have a look at the
alignment-vertical-manual-setting.ly<http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/input/regression/lily-1741c39480.ly>regression
test.

Thanks for your help. I'd had gotten good page fill and SCORE like output by
being able to manually fix the staff distances. I might stick with the
earlier version for now.
With the vertical-manual-setting - can this be set once for the entire
piece? At the moment you have to set it for every system break. Setting this
once for the entire piece or until a different setting is specified would be
good.
Regards,
Trent Johnston
