Guide to Vertical Justification

I’ve struggled ‘for some time’ getting my head around the Vertical Justification settings. I had set values that worked for me, saved as defaults, but I had no idea what numbers to plug in to get a particular effect.

So, I’ve produced the following handy chart, which may be of help to others.

There’s a similar comparison in the example on this page in the manual, with some general information about staff spacing settings here (although without such specific examples as in Ben’s document, which looks great!).
