Instead of an empty barline, what I want is a transparent barline. So for the problem I wrote this post about, the answer is: \once \override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##t \once \override Staff.BarLine #'extra-spacing-width = #'(-2 . 2) \bar "|" I'll get to the bug report about the volta bracket being misplaced when it doesn't start on a bar, but this is a reasonable workaround for putting in a bar when you want lily to think there's a line that takes up space, but you don't want the musician to see a barline. -- Laura (mailto:lcon...@laymusic.org, twitter: @serpentplayer) (617) 661-8097 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139 http://www.laymusic.org/ http://www.serpentpublications.org Just as there are no atheists in foxholes, there are no intellectuals on stage.
