Re: Vertical Spacing between scores

[Mats Bengtsson]

One solution is to insert a \markup command that takes some vertical space,
such as

\markup{\pad-to-box #'(0 . 0) #'(0 . 100) \null }

Replace the 100 with whatever number you prefer. As always, the unit of
measurement is the spacing between two staff lines.
