Umm, I don't think that's what Joe said. I think Joe said that the spacing
between ChoirStaff and the PianoStaff is determined by
'after-last-staff-spacing, and the Lyrics fit in the gap. I know that's how
it worked in my lyrics spacing test runs.
I wasn't able to make any difference between staves based upon my lyrics
settings. So I think the behavior you want is what is implemented. Can you
show us an example that doesn't work properly?
Thanks,
