(I posted this message to the general mailing list and apparently there is no such feature in lilypond to make that happen so I turn over here)
I would like to typeset one-line (one system) of music that has ties and/or slurs continuing over the end, to the (hypothetical) second system. The system is block-aligned (in LaTeX). I tried two lilypond-only solutions: 1. "... | c1 ~| \hideNotes\stopStaff c": the staff was aligned as if the hidden bit was there (i.e. it was narrower than \hsize); also, the tie did not look as pretty as it should. 2. "... | c1 ~| \break\hideNotes\stopStaff c": the alignment was perfect, the tie was also perfect, but I got clef, bar number and the other part of the broken tie printed. Since there is the --preview feature of lilypond, I think that it would be enough if lilypond-book passed that option to lilypond and then renamed the *.preview.* file as if it were the whole output of lilypond, ending at \break. Is such approach acceptable? Should I try (lilypond-book is "python", not python; sigh) and send a patch? What should this option be called? "oneliner"? "Preview" is clearly not appropriate. Or is it achievable from within .ly, after all?
