Re: Leading Barline with Staff Size Increase

[Mark Mathias]

Xavier and Phil,

Thank you! The dratted Barline is gone! Also, I managed to fix the spacing for the blanks below the staff before I
got your reply. The portion of code that worked is thus (sorry for the large example --- not sure what is "necessary" vs. "superfluous"):

 

  \layout {
   \context {
     \Lyrics
    \override VerticalAxisGroup #'staff-affinity = ##f
    \override VerticalAxisGroup #'staff-staff-spacing =
     #'((basic-distance . 0)
    (minimum-distance . 2)
    (padding . 2))
   }
   \context {
    \Staff
    \override VerticalAxisGroup #'staff-staff-spacing =
     #'((basic-distance . 10)
    (minimum-distance . 2)
    (padding . 2))
   }
   \context {
    \Score
    \remove "System_start_delimiter_engraver"
   }
  }

Greetings List,
This is my first post. Hope I've followed protocol.

Yep, welcome.

If I follow the suggestion for increasing staff and symbol size, a leading
bar line appears. I have tried a number of experiments to get rid of it,
only to reinforce my ignorance of the inner workings of Lilypond.

Looks like a bug to me.
Unless someone disagree I will report it as such on bug-lilypond.

I remember this coming up before, and the answer is that there is a variable that makes start bar lines disappear when they're below a certain size. Can't remember the details, but it must be in the archive somewhere!

Here it is:
