Hello Jean,
That sounds interesting. Maybe one way to do this would be allowing nested
\contexts? For example
\layout {
\context {
\StaffGroup
\context {
\Staff
something
}}}
to specifically target contexts that are children of other context. This way it
would be possible to have
\new StaffGroup \with {
\context {
\Staff
...
}
} << ... >>
@David:
Hardly anything put into layout blocks can be but into paper blocks. For
example something like this won’t work:
\bookpart {
\paper {
\override Staff.StaffSymbol.thickness = #2
}
{ c d e}
}
Best,
Valentin
