thx Jean,

this works - but for some reason only from page 2 on... any idea what the reason could be? I have not been able to make it happen in a minimal example...
There is still enough space on the first page - so this should not be the reason

I think it might actually be, given page margins. Remember that “basic-distance” is only an ideal distance. The “desire” to bring that distance close to its ideal value competes with other ideal distances on the page. Try “minimum-distance” or “padding” to define a minimum one distance that LilyPond will feel a need to always obey regardless of other constraints. See https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.24/Documentation/notation/flexible-vertical-spacing-paper-variables#structure-of-flexible-vertical-spacing-alists for more info.
