Thanks Werner.
I've added a mention of the CueNotes context
with an example of its use for rendering a
sequence of alternative notes in NR 1.6.3.

I could imagine something like that:
NR
1.1.4
Note heads
add:
See also:
formatting cue notes
1.6.3
formatting cue notes
add:
One can obtain cue notes starting a cue voice:
{ \times 2/3 {g4 g g } \times 2/3 {a4 a a} |
\times 2/3 {b4 b b} \times 2/3 {cis4 d e} |
a,1 | \new CueVoice { r8 a \noBeam h-^ a c-^ a \noBeam cis-^ a |
d2 c~ | c2 es4 d | } d1~ | d2 c4 b | a2 g2~ | g2. r4 | }
Often cue-notes are given as alternative to other notes or to
rests.
(Cuenotes often are added to rests in one voice quoting other
voices,
to find the start after the rests, see examples below, about
quoting
see section above). (Alternatives can also be given as ossia, see
ossia.)
Examples for alternative lower notes (using polyphony with << {}
\\ {} >>
see 1.5.2 The double backslash construct):
\clef G
\relative c''
{ h'2 a4 g | c2 d4 e | << { f2 g4 f } \\ \new CueVoice { e4 d e
f } >> |
e2 r | }
\clef "F"
\relative c,
{ es4 es' << {es'4 d8 d~ | d4 f cis8 a f es | d4 c' c h8 b~ | b1
| } \\
\new CueVoice { \stemDown es,4 d8 d~ | d4 f cis8 a f es | d4 c' c
h8 b~ |
b1 | \stemNeutral } >> r4 r8 b' a4. g8 | f4 es8 d~ d2 | }
(Warning: the CueVoice behaves like OneVoice also in the \\
polyphony
context. Therefore add stemDirection.)
Example for alternative higher notes:
{
\clef F
\relative c
{ es4 es <<\new CueVoice { \stemUp es } \\ es, >> es' | c g' c,2 }
% or
% { <<\new CueVoice { s4 s \stemUp es s} \\ { es es es, es' } >> |
c g' c,2 }
}
% % strange accidentals
BTW:
For better searching-results, sometimes add different words, e.g.
cuenotes beside cue notes beside cue-notes, invisible beside
hidden, ....
