The Notation Reference says [1]: " omit [music] - item (symbol list or
music): Set item's "stencil" property to #f, effectively omitting it
without taking up space. "
However, when applied to dynamics, space is taken up. This is
inconvenient, as one has to resort to \tag #'pdf {...} and \tag #'midi
{...} constructs to recover the space.
\version "2.19.40"
{
<>^\markup "no dynamics"
c'2\< 2\! 2\> 2\!
<>^\markup "\omit dynamics"
c'2-\omit\p\< 2-\omit\f 2-\omit\f\> 2-\omit\p
}
Hope this helps
