Thank you for your answer Aaron. Yes the stick part is only an introduction. I tried another layout as you suggested but in that case, cannot get rid of the new clef and key signature wich appear at the end: #(define cross '((snare cross #t 0))) \new Staff \with { \accepts DrumStaff } \relative c' { \override Staff.StaffSymbol.line-count = #1 \clef percussion \numericTimeSignature \time 4/4 \drums \with { \remove Time_signature_engraver \remove Clef_engraver } { \stemUp \override Score.MetronomeMark.padding = #3.5 \tempo "Marziale" \set DrumStaff.drumStyleTable = #(alist->hash-table cross) \grace { sn16 16 16 16 } sn8\ff 8 r4 \grace { 16 16 16 16 } sn8 8 r4 | sn2:32 8 8 r4 | sn8. 32 32 4:32~ 8 r r4 | R1 | r2. \bar "" \break } \new Voice { \stopStaff \override Staff.StaffSymbol.line-count = #5 \startStaff \override Staff.KeySignature.break-visibility = #all-invisible \override Staff.ClefModifier.break-visibility = #all-invisible \clef treble \key bes \major \tuplet 3/2 { bes'8( d f) } | g2. \tuplet 3/2 { c,8( es g) } | bes2~ bes8[ \breathe \shape #'((0 . 0)(0 . 0.25)(0 . 0.25)(0 . 0.25)) Slur c,(-- es-- ges])-- | \time 6/4 bes2~ 1\< ~ | 8\! r r4 r2 r \bar "|." } } I tried to use Staff.KeySignature.break-visibility = #all-invisible and \override Staff.ClefModifier.break-visibility = #all-invisible in different places but it never disappear! -- Sent from: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/User-f3.html _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
