Axis_group_engraver

Group all objects created in this context in a VerticalAxisGroup spanner.

Properties


VerticalExtent (pair of numbers):
hard coded vertical extent. The format is a pair of dimensions, for example, this sets the sizes of a staff to 10 (5+5) staffspaces high.
property Staff.VerticalExtent = #(-5.0 . 5.0)

VerticalExtent, MinimumVerticalExtent and ExtraVerticalExtent are predefined in all relevant contexts to #f, so they will not inherit values.

Note that these VerticalExtents can only operate on vertical groups, and therefore only work in contexts which contain an Axis_group_engraver.

MinimumVerticalExtent (pair of numbers):
minimum vertical extent, same format as VerticalExtent
ExtraVerticalExtent (pair of numbers):
extra vertical extent, same format as MinimumVerticalExtent
This engraver creates the following grobs: VerticalAxisGroup.

Axis_group_engraver is part of contexts: Lyrics, LyricsVoice, RhythmicStaff, Staff, ChordNames, StaffContainer and NoteNames
