Re: ragged-last-bottom doesn't take

[George_]

It shouldn't compile, I left the parts out to keep it reasonably short. As
far as the \paper block is concerned, though, that is exactly what I am
using at the moment, and that is exactly what doesn't work.

The reason I'm using both ragged-last and ragged-last-bottom is so that the
lines on the last page are not spread vertically, AND so that the bars on
the last line are not spread horizontally.

The thing is, that setting ragged-last-bottom = ##t doesn't do anything to
the layout of the score, but setting ragged-bottom = ##t does.
