Hello all,

I have been trying to modify the distance between systems and staves, but I
found it somehow difficult to understand. I am using the following code (on
which I added the a \paper snippet):

\version "2.17.24"

\paper {

  system-system-spacing #'basic-distance = #8

  score-system-spacing =

    #'((basic-distance . 12)

    (minimum-distance . 6)

    (padding . 1)

    (stretchability . 12))

}

\new Staff {

  \repeat unfold 200 { a4 b c' d' }

}


I was playing with the values of the snippet above, and the only line that
affects something is the *system-system-spacing. *All parameters of
*score-system-spacing
*seem to do nothing here, even though it is defined in the reference as
"the distance between the last system of a score and the first system of
the score that follows it, when no (title or top-level) markup exists
between them."


Also, in another score of mine (which has more than one staff per system,
and it has several systems per page), I altered the *system-system-spacing
#'basic-distance* to various values but couldn't see any difference.


Could someone please direct me to a page where I can learn more about this?


Thanks a lot!

Gilberto
