I now understand this can be done using a filled-box markup in white. But how do you get the box under the notehead and leger lines but above the ties? I am aware of layer order, but I can’t get the whiteout box just where it should be in the z-order. Andrew On 27 March 2015 at 12:05:33, And

Another thought, which is a musical solution rather than a lilypond tweak. You can use an equivalent time signature that may make it preferable in terms of readability. 12/8 is logically 4/4 (at a different tempo) and you use triplets. This can be easier one the eyes instead of all those dots.
