- In concert band music, multi-measure rests always appear as a thick

see the 17-measure rest in the "Multi measure rests" section in the

of rest, regardless of the length of the rest?
AFAIK, Lilypond automatically does this if you're using R rests (instead of
r rests). Or did you want to display partial-measure rests like this?
I don't quite understand what you want.
To see what I'm talking about, take a look at the first example image in the
"Multi measure rests" section of the user manual. The 17-measure rest is as
I described it above, while the 4-measure rest is displayed differently. I'm
trying to get all of the multi-measure rests to be displayed like the 17-
measure example (as I said, this seems to be the standard in every concert
band piece I've seen).
