Thanks! That answer a lot of questions. So presumably the S2 is means "silent half note rest." I'm guessing, then, that S1024 or S4096 will generate silent 1/1024 note rest and silent 1/4096 note rests, respectively.
Ideally, what I want is a silent rest of zero length. Experience shows that Lilypond won't print a rest shorter than 1/128 note, so maybe if I enter a short enough silent rest Lilypond won't insert it at all in the score. That's what I'm looking for, a silent rest of zero duration that simply makes the page break and adds nothing to the score. I'll fiddle around with Lilypond some more and see what I can come up with. In any case, this valuable clue points me in the right direction. -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Mystery-empty-staves-appear-on-score-tp196198p196258.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
