Aha! That works, but not quite as you described. I had to use "s"
rests, otherwise the unwanted staff line still showed up.
After converting to the standard "one piano staff", the melody
line looks like this:
melody = \relative c'' {
\clef treble
\key g \major
\override Score.VerticalAxisGroup #'remove-first = ##t
s1 | s1 | s1 | s1 |
\break
d,8\mf e fis g fis e d e |
}
The two sections in the score was a hack because I couldn't get
RemoveEmptyStaffContext working last year when I first needed this
feature. For a while I was using two score {} blocks and not
getting this problem, but MIDI output only worked for the second
section, the measure numbers got reset, and I could see it was
making things unnecessarily complex.
Thanks so much for your help!
