This context is built from the following engravers:


Engraver_group_engraver
A group of engravers taken together

Properties (read)


extraVerticalExtent (pair of numbers)
extra vertical extent, same format as MinimumVerticalExtent
minimumVerticalExtent (pair of numbers)
minimum vertical extent, same format as VerticalExtent
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.

This engraver creates the following grobs: VerticalAxisGroup.
