Hi Thomas, Here's an example of what I would do. Changing the short instrument names to reflect what instruments are in use at a certain moment clutters the music a bit; perhaps a music function of some sort might be appropriate there. Mark Witmer ===File ~/source/in_development/lilypond-misc

Re: Fwd: How to insert an auxiliary staff for divisi strings?

You can specify remove-first for an individual staff rather than the entire score, either by putting \override VerticalAxisGroup.remove-first = ##t inside the Staff's \with clause or by putting \override Staff.VerticalAxisGroup.remove-first = ##t at the beginning of the music for the staff. From

Sorry, I forgot that crucial step. You can name a context when you create it: \new StaffGroup = violinII \with { ... } { ... } That's the value you can use for alignAboveContext and alignBeforeContext. Thus: \new Staff = violinIdivisiB \with { alignAboveContext = violinII } { ... }

You can do that with Scheme. I don't know if there's a LilyPond command for it. #(display your object here) will display what you give it, either a plain string or an expression. The results aren't always totally useful (give it a \paper{} block, for example, and it will just say #Output_def)
