Re: Vertical spacing again

[Malte Meyn]

Please always give a *compilable* minimal example. I had to add the 
following code to be able to test possible solutions:

global = {}
soprannoten = { c' }
altnoten = { c' }
tenornoten = { c' }
bassnoten = { c' }
strophefI = \lyricmode { a }
strophefII = \lyricmode { a }
strophefIII = \lyricmode { a }
strophefIV = \lyricmode { a }
strophetI = \lyricmode { a }
strophetII = \lyricmode { a }
strophetIII = \lyricmode { a }
strophetIV = \lyricmode { a }

These commands affect all lines only if you place them in the \layout 
block. But everything you can put in the \layout block to change all 
contexts of a type at one time, you can instead put in a \with block to 
only change a single context:


\new Lyrics = "strfIV" \with {
  \override 
VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-nonstaff-spacing.minimum-distance = 5
}
