A much simpler solution to your problem is to change the duration of the breve note to fit into the existing time signature: d\breve*1/2

I want to do something very simple: change the time signature without anything appearing. I looked over the list archive, but I can't find the solution. In particular, I don't want a transparent time signature; I want no space taken.
I found various proposed solutions, and I tried inserting lines like
\override Score.TimeSignature #'style = \turnOff
and
\set Staff.TimeSignature = \turnOff
just before the time signature in question, but to no avail: the time signature remains there. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding something about contexts? The bit of my file in question looks something like this:
\new Staff { \notes{ \clef "bass" \key d\major d2. d4 | d2. d4 | d2 d2 | d2 d2 | ... d2 g,4 b,4 | a,1 | d1 | g,1 ~ | g,2 d2 | \override Score.TimeSignature #'style = \turnOff %\set Staff.TimeSignature = \turnOff g,1 | \time 8/4 d\breve \bar "||" }
As you can see, the reason I want an invisible time signature is because I have a single bar with a breve in at the end of a movement.
