Re: The organ template works fine now but ....

[Mats Bengtsson]

Did you take a look at the section on Vertical spacing in the manual,
where this property is described? From that description, it should
hopefully be clear that when you do the setting within a staff, it
affects the amount of space to allocate around a specific Staff. Also,
on that page, you will find the default value.

So, the relevant place to do the setting is

\new StaffGroup \with{systemStartDelimiter = #'SystemStartBar } <<
\new PianoStaff <<
 \new Staff \relative c' {c d e f }
 \new Staff \relative c' {\clef bass c b a g }
> >
\new Staff \relative c { *HERE* \clef bass c1 }
> >

Logical, isn't it? :-)
