Subject: Frenching with pick-ups
The recent discussion on hiding unused staffs led me to improve one of
my scores, but I ran into a little weirdness. The piece is a waltz (“Si
Bheag, Si Mhor”) with a pick-up for every strain.
For the anacrucis, if I use a partial-measure rest (\partial 4 r4), the
staff won’t get dropped. If I use a full-measure rest (R4), then the
line is dropped as appropriate, but I get bar check errors, and if the
measure is part of a line that is kept, then I get a blank measure
instead of a rest.

You only need \partial once. The final rests should be lower case, since
they're not strictly Whole Measure:
\score {
<<
\new Staff <<
\time 3/4
\set Staff.instrumentName = #"First"
{
\partial 4 c''4 | c'' c'' c'' | c'' c'' \bar "|."
}
>>
\new Staff <<
\time 3/4
\set Staff.instrumentName = #"Second"
{
r4 | R2. | r2 \bar "|."
}
>>
\new Staff <<
\time 3/4
\set Staff.instrumentName = #"Third"
{
r4 | R2. | r2 \bar "|."
}
>>
\new Staff <<
\time 3/4
\set Staff.instrumentName = #"Fourth"
{
r4 | R2. | r2 \bar "|."
}
>>
>>
\layout {
\context {
\RemoveEmptyStaffContext
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'remove-first = ##t
}
}
}
