I'm transcribing a part and want to copy the line breaks for easy comparison. In order to be able to turn them off easily I'm putting the line breaks in a separate voice with spacers. This works fine, except that when there are grace notes attached to a note at the start of a measure, and that measure is after a line break, the grace notes appear at the end of the preceding line. When I put the \break in the voice with the grace notes, this does not happen.
Why does this happen, and how can I fix it? I found a workaround by putting a spacer grace note in the voice with the breaks. But this is very fussy. Is there a better way? Or, is there a better way overall to do what I'm trying to do? Here is a MWE:
\version "2.25.0"
\paper { ragged-right = ##t }
music = \relative c'' {
c1 \break \grace {a16 b} c1
d1 \grace{b16 c} d1
e1 \grace{c16 d} e1 }
breaks = {
s1 s1
s1 \break s1
s1 \break \grace{s8} s1
}
\new StaffGroup \with { \RemoveEmptyStaves }
{
\autoBreaksOff
\new Staff
<<
\new Voice \music
\new Voice \breaks
>>
}
