Subject: Hiding or delaying new staffs
I have a situation I feel there should be an answer to but cannot find it.
I write arrangements which start with, say, 8 bars intro during which ,
again say, up to 4 front line instruments are doing nothing. I either want
to suppress their staffs during the intro or not create them till the end
of the intro. I can suppress the staff itself but not the clef, time sig &
key sig.
Steve
To get rid of all except piano staffs which only contain Whole Measure
Rests, use:
\layout {
\context {
\RemoveEmptyStaffContext
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'remove-first = ##t
}
}
