Tyler, How will LP know to which context the dynamics apply? I have a open SATB score? I'll give it a go. Thanks for your reply! Guy On 1/2/2019 1:02 PM, Tyler Mitchell

Because that's what I'm trying to do. Final four measures split into two voices, explicitly created: << \new Voice = "Solo" { \voiceOne } \new Voice = "sopranoOoos" { \voiceTwo }If I put \new Dynamics {} before or after either of these two \new Voice inside the polyphonic code LP puts the dynamics beneath the entire 4-stave score. If I add \with { alignAboveContext = #"sopranos } LP puts the dynamics exactly as originally, immediately above the staff, but below the lyrics, so nothing gained by the added code.Hi Guy, My idea would be to have the Dynamics context from the beginning of your score, and skip over the first chunk: %%% code begin \score { << \new Dynamics \with { \override VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-nonstaff-spacing = #'((padding . 1)) } { % Instead of "1" here, you would enter the number of bars you % need to skip (ie, the number of bars before this divisi). \repeat unfold 1 { s1 | } s2. a'4^\mf^\dim ^"Solo, Remaining voices Ooos" \bar "||" a'4. bf'8 c''4 a' | g'2 f'\p | } \new Staff = "sopranos" << \new Voice = "Soprano" { c''4 a' g' f' | e'2. << \new Voice = "Solo" { \voiceOne { \partial 4 a'4 \bar "||" a'4. bf'8 c''4 a' | g'2 f' | } } \new Lyrics \with { alignAboveContext = #"sopranos" } \lyricsto "Solo" { Yet what I can I give Him, } \new Voice = "sopranoOoos" { \voiceTwo { \partial 4 f'4( ~ | f'4. g'8 a'4 f' | f'2 d') | } } \new Lyrics \lyricsto "sopranoOoos" { Ooo } >> \bar "|." } \new Lyrics \lyricsto "Soprano" \lyricmode { I would do my part; } >> >> \layout { } } %%%% code end I haven't really tested this but I don't believe it will add any vertical space in other systems where there are no dynamic markings in that context (except for maybe the bit of padding, which is a very small amount, and could even be reduced to 0.5).
