Greetings, I've looked high and low for the solution to this (rather basic, IMO) problem, and seem to be coming up empty-handed:
I have a score that requires a single-line tablature staff above the main staff, which contains pitches. I need to find a way to decrease the space between the tablature staff and the main one such that it generally is not more than 2 spaces (i.e. staff spaces) above the main staff, but yet will move higher if needed to avoid collisions with leger lines, articulations, etc. Noteheads between these two staves will typically be beamed together (i.e. cross-staff beaming). Adjusting the minimum-Y-extent of VerticalAxisGroup does not seem to have the desired effect (staves are too far apart); adjusting offsets in NonMusicalPaperColumn is possible, but only doable at the very last stage, i.e. once all other input is done. So, is there an easy (and hopefully intuitive) way to decrease space between two staves (even if the score were to contain more than 2 staves) globally, without having to set system breaks, such that the layout will default to a narrower vertical spacing for those staves? Thanks, EF _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
