Hello,
The following code compiles, but the spacing override in the layout
block fails. The layout block code was copied and pasted into my test
directly from the NR 4.4.1 "Within-system spacing properties".
According to the docs, this is supposed to apply globally to all
staves within systems.
\version "2.13.46"
\score {
<<
\new Staff { c'1 }
\new Staff { c'1 }
>>
\layout {
\context {
\Staff
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'staff-staff-spacing
#'basic-distance = #10
}
}
}
This fails with:
Parsing...
Interpreting music...
warning: type check for `staff-staff-spacing' failed; value `((basic-
distance . 10) . #<primitive-procedure ly:axis-group-interface::calc-
staff-staff-spacing>)' must be of type `list'
warning: type check for `staff-staff-spacing' failed; value `((basic-
distance . 10) . #<primitive-procedure ly:axis-group-interface::calc-
staff-staff-spacing>)' must be of type `list'
Preprocessing graphical objects...

Converting to `./spacetest.pdf'...
success: Compilation successfully completed
Putting the override in a Staff's \with block gives the same error.
However, writing the command as a list:
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'staff-staff-spacing = #'((basic-
distance . 50))
compiles fine and does what's expected.
Is this a bug/regression, or has the ability to define a single
variable, as in my example, gone away and the docs just not been
updated to reflect that?
