Hi, I'm typesetting an orchestral score and need to insert an "auxiliary" staff for some strings in some places. The situation is this: in general, the 2nd violins occupy only one staff, even if they play divisi; however, in one instance (a passage of a few bars) the parts of each subgroup are too different to be put on one single staff, so it would be necessary to put them on two. Is there a possibility to insert such an auxiliary staff in some form in the score? I could of course define a "second" 2nd violin system as an independent "instrument" at the outset, but it seems that it would appear as such on the first page, where the entire range of instruments appears, even if I use \RemoveEmptyStaffContext in a \context of the \layout. I don't want that, but I don't see how to suppress individual staffs on the first page or achieve otherwise that this auxiliary staff really appears only in those few bars in which it is actually needed. Any ideas?
