Oh dear, that recommendation was for your first code. The bass clef code needs a LeftEdge.Y-offset of -5 Cheers, Robin On 14.07.2019 12:10, Robin Bannister wrote: Jacques Menu wrote: Didn’t find a way to hide the empty part of the staff to the left of it, stopStaff/startStaff didn’t help.

Another, tricky ‘solution', though musically incorrect since: - it doesn’t use \repeat: the repeat barlines are added manually; - it adds two hidden skip full measures to push the seconda volta to the right.However:  \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta ""))  <> ^\markup {    \scale #'(1.5 . 1.5)
