Hello again,

Typesetting my masterpiece :D, I ran into the following problem:
I have a piece for piccolo and guitar. If I typeset the music for
guitar, I'd like to have a tablature staff in addition to the notes, but
If I typset for piccolo, I'd like to omit the tablature. Since the music
is the same in either case, I prefer to have one file where I can make a
definition at the very beginning of the document like

I think you can do that with tags:

scroll down to "Using tags".

Hi Vincente, thanks for the suggestion. However, I do not only want to delete a music expression (which can be tagged), but an entire staff, namely the tabStaff. I wouldn't know how to create code removing a staff by tagging it.

Dmytro's suggestion looks more promising, though I haven't been able to generate code that does the job so far. When I code

==================
\new Devnull
<<
        \TablatureNotes
>>
==================

I still get an empty tabStaff and two tabstaffs below it for both voices in the \TablatureNotes. Replacing "Devnull" by "TabStaff", I get one tabstaff with both voices combined. I guess Devnull is not a manner to suppress printing the staff.


Thanks anyway,
Marten
