Re: Start new piece without line break (with title)

[Lukas-Fabian Moser]

Some other changes:

- encapsulate the piece-break machinery in a function
- deal with pieces in c major :-)
- reset clef/key change settings
- etc.

Adding

        \once \override Staff.KeySignature. break-visibility = ##(#f #f #f)
        \once \override Staff.Clef.break-visibility = ##(#f #f #f)
        \once \omit Score.BarNumber

Together with \stopStaff helps avoids some of the strangeness if the new 
piece’s start happens to coincide with a line break. The spacing still looks a 
bit off though.

Hi Ruzsa,

Maybe this would be a slight improvement.
Cheers,

Hi everyone,

I'd like to copy the layout of a small tune book. New pieces don't always
start in a new line, it usually occurs that the next song starts somewhere
in the middle of the line. Titles are placed before each piece (not above
the staff)

I found two helpful topics in the archive but couldn't find a solution for
properly adding a title for the new piece:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2013-12/msg01027.html
https://www.mail-archive.com/lilypond-user@gnu.org/msg118603.html

I'm trying to change some notes (see attachment) to add a new title, but I'm
wondering if there's a nicer solution that can help me place the new title
more precisely (to match the first title that was added as an
"instrumentName").

Thank you in advance for any help.
