Whoops. forgot to reply-all. Here's my reply to Andrew Bernard's message. UPDATE: I've discovered the \omit Staff.TimeSignature command, so now the time signature is properly hidden. My last issue with this score is controlling staff spacing within systems on an explicit per-measure basis (ie, set an override at specific points to change spacing allowed for the empty staves). Is there a way to do this? All the instructions I find in the NR are for the Staff or Score level, which would change them for the whole piece. I only want them changed at specific sections. Is there a way to do that?

I realized it wasn't compiling after I sent it out. I found a workaround by using a \context block, like this: \version "2.19.36" VioloncelloMusic = \new Voice \relative c { \clef bass \time 4/8 \key es \major << { g8.\( f16 es8 g16--( g--) | as4 es8 as | g8. f16 es8 es | f2\) | g4\( es8 g | as4 es8 as | g4 f | es2\) | bes'4\( es, | c' es,8 es | bes'4 es,8 es | f4.\) f8\( | %% Bar 95 g8. f16 es8 g | as4 es8 as | g4 f | es2\) | } \context PianoStaff = "ossia" \with { \remove "Time_signature_engraver" } << { \startStaff \clef treble \hideNotes | es2^\markup { ossia } \omit PianoStaff.SpanBar | \omit Staff.BarLine \repeat unfold 15 { es2 } \undo \omit Staff.BarLine \undo \omit PianoStaff.SpanBar | \stopStaff } { \startStaff \clef bass \hideNotes | es2 \omit PianoStaff.SpanBar | \omit Staff.BarLine \repeat unfold 15 { es2 } \undo \omit Staff.BarLine \undo \omit PianoStaff.SpanBar | \stopStaff } >> >>%% Bar 99 (end of ossia piano) } \score { \new Staff = "Staff_violoncello" << \override Staff.InstrumentName.self-alignment-X = #LEFT \set Staff.instrumentName = \markup \left-column \abs-fontsize #10 { Violoncello } \set Staff.midiInstrument = #"cello" \VioloncelloMusic >> } Some issues with this: * sticking an ossia piano part into the cello music is an ugly hack, but I have two simultaneous voices in each hand of the piano, forcing me to use << { } \\ { } >> blocks. These blocks break at %% Bar 95, and I didn't know how to have the \context block extend across them. * I can't figure out how to get the time signatures not to appear. Any tips how to improve this?
