11.2.2 Score layout

While \paper contains settings that relate to the page formatting of the whole document, \layout contains settings for score-specific layout.

\layout {
  indent = 2.0\cm
  \context { \Staff
    \override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-6 . 6)
  }
  \context { \Voice
    \override TextScript #'padding = #1.0
    \override Glissando #'thickness = #3
  }
}
