After months of work, I just finished setting a long piece for piano, using the example LES NÉRÉIDES given in http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.5/examples.html as a template. This uses dynamics between the two staves,
\score { \new PianoStaff << \new Staff = "upper" \upper \new Dynamics = "dynamics" \dynamics \new Staff = "lower" << \clef bass \lower >>... The problem is that whenever dynamics are present, they tend to create much more extra space between the staves than is necessary, leading to very nonuniform looking systems (see http://www.nabble.com/file/p18454033/example.jpg example.jpg ). I have tried everything I could find in the documentation and on this forum which seemed to be relevant, and nothing has had any effect on this unwanted extra vertical space. I will greatly appreciate any advice! --Jim -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Staff-spacing-problem-with-piano-centered-dynamics-tp18454033p18454033.html Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
