Hello Peter,

Wait, this didn't quite work:
hideRests = {
\override Rest.transparent = ##t
}
It almost produces the correct output, but it generates a million
warnings (one for each rest) about a "rest collision" that could not
be resolved. I guess a transparent rest is not the same as a spacer
rest - even though it is invisible, it can still collide.
Also, strangely, the dots on the dotted rests are still visible, even
when the rests themselves are transparent.
Is there a property similar to Rest.transparent that will remove the
rest (effectively turning it into a spacer rest), rather than just
making it invisible?
Yes. You will find an explanation in our Learning Manual:
<http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/learning/visibility-and-color-of-objects>
– by the way: this manual is a ‘must-read’. It takes some time to work
through, but it gives a very good introduction into basic concepts and
it shows how to read the other manuals.
This will give you
omitRests = \omit Rest
:-)
So, no need for an abbreviation…
As Klaus already explained, the dot issue isn’t just as simple. You
might try:
\layout {
\context {
\Staff
\remove "Dot_column_engraver"
}
\context {
\Voice
\consists "Dot_column_engraver"
}
}
This will move the Dot_column_engraver from Staff to Voice level and
might fix the problem.
HTH, Simon

Thanks for your replies. That's awesome. I think I will also define a
command \hideRests, so that I don't have to manually convert all the
rests to spacer rests - this might be handy if I later decide to use
one staff per voice.
centerRests = {
\override Rest.staff-position = #0
}
hideRests = {
\override Rest.transparent = ##t
}
\new Staff <<
\new Voice \relative c'' {
\voiceOne
\centerRests
r4 c r d
}
\new Voice \relative c'' {
\voiceTwo
\hideRests
r4 a8 a8 r4 b8 b8
}
By the way, properties such as staff-position are not included in the
index of the Notation Manual (though they do appear in the index of
the Learning Manual). I had to search the whole document to find these
properties in Appendix A.17. Would it make sense to include them in
the index?

Is there a global way to turn off
vertical spacing for rests in a context, i.e., some command whose
effect would be to make notes behave as with \voiceOne and rests
behave as with \oneVoice?
Hi Peter,
yes, there is:
\override Rest.staff-position = #0
but you have to apply it once for every voice.
Cheers,
Klaus
