I've finally been able to cull down the code where I can provide a tiny example and still get it to fail. I don't get any errors when I comment out the \RemoveEmptyStaves \override VerticalAxisGroup.remove-first = ##t in the \layout block. When I uncomment them, I get programming error

Hi Kieren, I use bar checks so I'm sure that I don't have anything bleeding outside of a measure. The strange thing is the breaks are in the proper places when I comment out the \removeemptystaves statement but are not applied in places when I enable that statement. Do you know how to get in tou

Abraham, I'm beginning to agree with you concerning \break. I'm finding that manual line breaks need to be in one staff and one staff only in a system. It seems to behave better when the line breaks are in the top staff of a system. Lilypond has done some strange things when I put breaks in other
