Hi Kieren,
I don't claim it's necessarily "better", but another way
[to hide the initial time signature but not subsequent ones]
would be
\version "2.9.17"
{
\once \override Staff.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f
\time 4/4 c'1 \time 3/4 c'2.
}
Indeed, that works too. But where is the "stencil" setting documented? And
why isn't it mentioned on:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.9/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals/TimeSignature.html
?
In other words, how did you learn that tweak, and how might I have
discovered one like that myself, without asking the mailing list?
(Searching Google for "stencil site:lilypond.org" didn't yield any obvious
answers. Nor did the Lilypond index, in which "stencil" links to "8.1.6
Overview of text markup commands" --
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.9/Documentation/user/lilypond/Overview-of-text-markup-commands.html
-- which explains the \stencil command, but not the #'stencil setting.)
Thanks,
Marcus
