Interesting!, a way for simplifying things! But the confusion with tuplets, starts when I have to use then in non-regular \time or non-regular tuplets like my example that its both things at the same time. In a \time 4/4 or 2/4 its easy to grasp the use of a standard \times 2/3 But in a \time 6/8

Sorry, I forgot that crucial step. You can name a context when you create it: \new StaffGroup = "violinII" \with { ... } { ... } That's the value you can use for alignAboveContext and alignBeforeContext. Thus: \new Staff = "violinIdivisiB" \with { alignAboveContext = "violinII" } { ... }

You can specify remove-first for an individual staff rather than the entire score, either by putting \override VerticalAxisGroup.remove-first = ##t inside the Staff's \with clause or by putting \override Staff.VerticalAxisGroup.remove-first = ##t at the beginning of the music for the staff. >From
