I now understand this can be done using a filled-box markup in white. But how do you get the box under the notehead and leger lines but above the ties? I am aware of layer order, but I can’t get the whiteout box just where it should be in the z-order.

Notehead, leger lines, stem? Not real music, just the smallest example I could make. \version "2.19.17" treble = \relative c'' { e \change Staff = "bass" <e,,, g,> \change Staff = "treble" g'' c c1 } bass = \relative c { \clef bass <c, f c,>1 ~ <c f c,> } \score { \new PianoStaff << \new Staff = "treble" \with { } { \treble } \new Staff = "bass" \with { } { \bass } >> \layout { } } Andrew
