Ah, right - the number of systems on the first page didn't change, and I
stopped there instead of looking at later pages as well.
I'll experiment with nopagebreak. I already have a voice with just time
signatures, skips and breaks, so that'll be a handy place to put them.
Thanks,
Paul

Okay. The problem seems to be that for the upper system the extent estimate is
larger than it should be. Consider setting the debug-skylines option (-ddebug-

Maybe we find something.

Hi mclaren,
I would not know how to play these nested tuplets and I would have
difficulties with that piece. But that's not the question.
The empty staves are there, because you ask for them with your \breaks
variable. Wherever you put \breaks into the music (at least 3 times in
your score), you

these empty mystery staves appear, though.
What am I doing wrong?
