Well, that is working as intended. The usual page-breaker will squeeze the staves rather than use an extra page. The minimal-page-breaker will put as many staves on a page as fit with their natural spacing, and never look back. Now I realize that the documentation is missing that detail: "minimal-page- breaking fills a page with as many systems as possible [with their natural spacing] before moving to the next one" The warning is a bit silly. I think we want "ragged-bottom=#t" to fill pages as much as possible within estimation error (given that there is some estimation error) and if it underestimated the height and has to squeeze a bit, I don't want a warning. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
