4.6.1 Displaying spacing
To graphically display the dimensions of vertical layout variables
that may be altered for page formatting, set
annotate-spacing in the \paper block:
\book { \score { { c4 } } \paper { annotate-spacing = ##t } }
![[image of music]](../80/lily-1e32b709.png)
All layout dimensions are displayed in staff-spaces, regardless
of the units specified in the \paper or \layout block.
In the above example, paper-height has a value of 59.75
staff-spaces, and the staff-size is 20 points (the
default value). Note that:
| 1 point | = (25.4/72.27) mm |
| 1 staff-space | = (staff-size)/4 pts |
= (staff-size)/4 * (25.4/72.27) mm |
In this case, one staff-space is approximately equal to
1.757mm. Thus the paper-height measurement of 59.75
staff-spaces is equivalent to 105 millimeters, the height
of a6 paper in landscape orientation. The pairs
(a,b) are intervals, where a is the lower
edge and b the upper edge of the interval.
