Take a look at:
https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.25/Documentation/notation/merging-rests
which is something I haven't yet tried out. I assume this supercedes
snippet 336 and corrected versions thereof.
Cheers,

Re: vertically center rests in polyphonic voices
Dear Jin,
You can write 4\rest instead of r4 to specify what "pitch"
(vertical position) the rest should appear at. You should write the note
that is the middle line of the staff for it to appear like a \oneVoice
rest. So
\version "2.25.6"
upper = \relative c'' {
\new Voice {
\voiceOne c4 b4\rest c4 b4\rest
}
\new Voice {
\voiceTwo c4 b4\rest c4 b4\rest
}
}
\new Staff = "upper" \upper
Thanks,
-William

vertically center rests in polyphonic voices
I’m transcribing some piano music where it is helpful to use \voiceOne and
\voiceTwo for some extended polyphonic sections. When I come across shared
rests, I’ve been putting in rests in one voice and invisible rests in the other
voice. But rests in voices are vertically offset from the center depending on
which voice is in use:
\version "2.24.1"
upper = \relative c'' {
\new Voice {
\voiceOne c4 r4 c4 r4
}
\new Voice {
\voiceTwo c4 r4 c4 r4
}
}
\new Staff = "upper" \upper
I can fix that by exiting the voice context and going to \oneVoice for the
rests, but is there an easier way just to have the rest vertically centered?
Re: Removing barlines temporarily
Dear Jin,
Depending on what type of music it is, you can also do this:
-William
\version "2.25.7"
\relative c' {
c4 d e f g a b c | c \set Timing.measureBarType = "" b a g f e d c |
c \set Timing.measureBarType = "|" d e f g a b c
}

Re: Removing barlines temporarily
Thank you, that’s exactly what I was looking for. However, the candenza section just runs right off the right side of the page now. How do I get it to break? > On Aug 10, 2023, at 11:47 AM, Jean Abou Samra wrote: > > Le jeudi 10 août 2023 à 11:36 -0400, Jin Choi a écrit : >> I have a section of a score where all the barlines are absent.

auto-first-page-number add extra blank page
Hi there, When setting auto-first-page-number = ##t , it sometimes changes the first page number (The one with the header and all) as expected as page 1 or 2. Is there a way to add an extra blank page automatically as page 1 only when the auto-first-page-number sets the first (title) page to be 2 ? The classic "Left intentionally blank" page, created especially for those of us getting ptsd panic attacks at the thought of eventually negotiating yet again with this horrible printer interface for it to "do it correctly". Thanks, -- Pierre-Luc Gauthier

Removing barlines temporarily
I have a section of a score where all the barlines are absent. How do I temporarily turn off automatic bar lines?
