Dear Ed, I have often similar problems like You. My solution is not ideal, but I hope, it helps You a bit:
\version "2.16.2" globalA = { \time 4/4 s1 } globalB = { \time 3/4 s2. \time 4/4 s1 \time 5/4 s4*5 } globalC = { \time 4/4 s1 } global = { \globalA \globalB \globalC } firstStaff = \relative c' { c4 d e f c4 d e c4 d e f c4 d e f g c,1. } secondStaff = { \clef bass c1 $(mmrest-of-length globalB) c1. } \score { << \new Devnull \global \new StaffGroup << \new Staff \firstStaff \new Staff \secondStaff >> >> } \version 2.16.2 > I'm writing a frenched score which has large gaps between the reappearance > of some staves. The piece is stuffed full of time signature changes, so I'm > hoping to find a way to skip input by a specified number of bars, or to a > specific bar.
