I'm typesetting a piano score that is mostly in two staves, but occasionally
in three. I have filled the third staff with spacers rests when it's not
needed and used \RemoveEmptyStaves and "Keep_alive_together_engraver" to
hide it when its empty.
The problem is that the first line of the score uses only one staff but
*does* display the empty second staff, which Lilypond is hiding along with
the third staff because it's empty. Is there a way to force the second staff
to be displayed only on the first system?
\version "2.16.1"
right = \relative c'' {
c1 | c | c | c | \break % First line
c | c | c | c | \break % Second line
c | c | c | c |
}
left = \relative c' {
s1*4 | %First line that I would like to be displayed even though it's
empty
c1 | c | c | c |
c | c | c | c |
}
leftTwo = \relative c {
s1*8 | %First two lines
c1 | c | c | c |
}
\score {
\new PianoStaff
<<
\new Staff = "right" \right
\new Staff = "left" { \clef bass \left }
\new Staff = "leftTwo" {\clef bass \leftTwo}
>>
\layout {
\context {
\Staff \RemoveEmptyStaves
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'remove-first = ##t
}
\context {
\PianoStaff
\remove "Keep_alive_together_engraver"
}
}
}
