Control distance between lyrics' syllables

Hello,

I'm looking for a setting that controls:
- the minimum distance between words of a lyrics line (the minimum whitespace width)
- the minimum distance between hyphenated words (the minimum width of a hyphen)

I tried:
\new Staff { \melody }
\addlyrics { \override LyricHyphen.minimum-length = #10.0 \verse }
for the hyphen distance and, similarly, LyricSpace.minimum-length for word spacing, but neither of them seem to work.

Am I misusing those options or there are other settings that control those distances?
Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance!
