Re: How to increase the "gap" between SATB group of staves and basso continuo staff ?

Hi Ziad,

\layout {
  \context {
    \FiguredBass
    \override VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-staff-spacing.padding = #30
  }
}

Play with the number (in this example, 30) to get your desired distance.

Hope that helps!
Kieren.
