I asked it recently, and here's the answer. This would set the distance
to 12. That's the maximum and the minimum.
\layout {
\context {
\Staff
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'staff-staff-spacing =
#'((basic-distance . 12)
(minimum-distance . 12)
(padding . -12)
(stretchability . 0))
}
}
Replace 12 with your favorite number. Yes, this is ugly and removes
some flexibility from Lilypond, but it doesn't the job.
In my projects, I prefer using a dynamics line between staves. Maybe
rests won't be precisely centered, but they would be aligned with each
other and other marks that lie between staves.
