As I said yesterday, I've already added this to the learning manual.

Maybe it needs to go somewhere in the Notation Reference too?
  

Sorry, thanks for adding to the LM, I meant this additional sentence to go to the NR, chapter 5.2.1,

which is about spacing and page layout. It would then also be possible to refer to that chapter from the LM.

Sorry, I try to say it in a way that it might be 
added to the docs.

In 5.2.1 the @refbugs (line 495 in spacing.itely 
on master) it states:

"@code{layout-set-staff-size} does not change the 
distance between the
staff lines."

Could we add a sentence:
"Use instead the pair    
            fontSize = address@hidden
             \override StaffSymbol #'staff-space 
= #(magstep @var{N})
inside the Staff context to change the size of 
the font and the distance 
between
staff lines accordingly."

Actually I found, that the 
@internalsref{StaffSymbol} at line 481 sends 
to an uncomplete
documentation. The property staff-space is not 
explained here. I thought 
Y-extent might be of
help, but it is in turn explained by x-space 
which again is missing from 
the list. Who has the
knowledge to fix this?


Greetings
Till
