Hi Kieren, Thanks for your reaction.
I could not imagine a MWE for this problem. But I can tell you what my “trick'’ is and I can also send you the whole file. It is Federico Mompou's Prelude No. 9. It begins with 16 bars in normal 2-staff PianoStaff on 4 systems. Then follow 4 bars in 3-staff PianoStaff on one system, followed by 12 bars in in normal 2-staff PianoStaff on three systems. My “trick” is to split the whole into tree separate scores and “concatenate" them in one _ly.tex - file. (I’m using TeXShop as editor). It works but for the too short system with the 3-staff PianoStaff. If I could stretch that a bit it would be OK. If it is OK with you to send you the complete file I will do that after having added a few lacking dynamic signs.
