By using spacer rests, but you'd still need to stop and start the staff to remove the staff lines in the gap, so this probably isn't a solution for you either. Actually, I can't find any solution which has music between the two parallel sections - this causes the temporary context to die and it can't be resuscitated. A break might be a work-around. The way I would do it (without your application constraints) would be to have a permanent context just for these temporary bits, with spacer rests to keep it alive, and stop/start staves to activate it as needed. Sorry I can't be of more help. Trevor _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
