Hello,

Your code does not compile, could you share a working example so we can help you better with the indent, etc?

Also, let us know what version you're using...

Thanks!



Ok! I'm using version 2.18.2. Here's what I've discovered with some testing.

If my music goes over one page, there is a large gap between the main score and the Coda.

If it doesn't, then the Coda shows up where it's expected.

Try this here. Un-comment the last few bars and hopefully you'll see the large gap between the scores on the second page.

Any help would be great. Thanks!

Louis

Hello,

Yes when you uncomment out those measures I see what you mean.
You have a few options.

If you really want to compact, just add ragged-last-bottom = ##f to the paper block and it looks nice and tidy together :)

You are using multiple scores in the same file, so that is something to consider...that's why.
(see attached)

Does this work for you? Or did you want it even tighter?

\paper
{
    top-markup-spacing = #'((basic-distance . 0) (padding . 13) (stretchability . 0) (minimum-distance . 0))     nonstaff-relatedstaff-spacing = #'((basic-distance . 0) (padding . 8) (stretchability . 0) (minimum-distance . 0))     markup-system-spacing = #'((basic-distance . 0) (padding . 5) (stretchability . 0) (minimum-distance . 0))     system-system-spacing = #'((basic-distance . 0) (padding . 3) (stretchability . 0) (minimum-distance . 0))
     two-sided = ##t
     top-margin = 8
     bottom-margin = 5
     outer-margin = 13
     inner-margin = 13
*ragged-last-bottom = ##f*
}


Thanks for that Ben,

It seems though that disabling "ragged-last-bottom" as you suggest divides the music evenly between the pages - but the "Coda" score still ends up near the bottom of the second page (when there is a second page). This is not preferable... I would rather see the main score look like it "normally" does (with "ragged-last-bottom = ##t").

So the questions remain:

1. Why the giant gap between scores when the music goes to a second page? - (this happens regardless of how ragged-last-bottom is set)

2. Is there a way to control that gap?

Thanks again for looking!

Louis
