Setting the minimum length of a fall/doit
Appearance
Sometimes the spacing is too tight, so that a fall or doit looks almost vertical. The solution is to specify a minimum length for the fall/doit, but only setting the minimum-length property (which you can do on hairpins and slurs, for example) does not work, since you also need a suitable setting for the springs-and-rods property. This example shows how to do it.
