Thanks for the hint.
%%% Example %%%
\parallelMusic #'(voiceA voiceB voiceC) {
c''1|
c'1|
r1|
% \break
%Bar 2
d''1|
d'1|
\clef bass c,,1|
% \break
}
\layout {
\context {
\Staff \RemoveEmptyStaves
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'remove-first = ##t
}
}
\new PianoStaff \with {
instrumentName = "Klavier"
}
<<
\new Staff {\voiceA}
\new Staff {\voiceB}
\new Staff {\voiceC}
>>
However, this doesn't have the desired effect, either. Or did I do
something wrong? I'am trying to achieve something like:
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/snippets/staff-notation#staff-notation-adding-an-extra-staff
I wonder whether this actually works with \parallelMusic or not.
I need to get my piece ready for the Musikmesse in Frankfurt/Germany. I
will now constrain myself to using only two staves (it would however be
more elegant using more than two staves). Will try again after
I got it ready. Any hints still appreciated.
Gabriel
