Hi Martin,

You could try the attached, with the commands pedOn, pedRetake and pedOff.

Re: Helpless with system spacing

Hi Joram

You're right: It's system-system-... . Your snippet leads exactly to the
desired result. I included it in my \book {} block. Awsome. That's it.
Thanks a lot!

Steff

Re: Helpless with system spacing

Thanks, David, good hint (2.1.5). Not the solution to my core problem
though. Doesn't address the spacing, but helps with proximity anyway.

Best Regards
Stephan
