Well, there is, although I didn't know it until I
went looking! You have to change the dynamic into
a markup to do it, but it does seem to allow the
printing of dynamics across barlines in a way that
looks good. The key command is \whiteout. Try
this:
\version "2.11.34"
\paper {
ragged-right = ##t
}
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = RH {
\clef "treble"
\relative c'' {
c1
c4_\markup \center-align {\whiteout \dynamic ffff}
c c c
}
}
\new Staff = LH {
\clef "bass"
\relative c { c1 c1 }
}
