Re: Restricting cross staff stems

[Andrew Bernard]

Hi Malte,

Many thanks to you. Although I had said I did not want to fudge this
scenario by shiftng the notes to make them miss the crossStaff alignment, I
was unaware that the sensitivty of crossStaff is so high, and this small
move not only works just fine to suppress the crossStaff but is completely
unobservable. Not such a bad hack after all. One could even create a
function \crossStaffOff and just use this. Quite acceptable I think.

A 10,000th of a staff space is not visible ;)

Hi Simon,

Did you misunderstand my question? I know crossStaff is temporary. I 
want it to NOT crossStaff to the top staff just in this case (i.e. 
temporarily). Perhaps I have expressed my query badly.


Oh, sorry. I overlooked that part. They’re supposed to cross between the 
middle and low staves, but not to the top one. Sorry for being smug.


Best, Simon

Huh? The last time I looked, you had to wrap the notes concerned in the
\crossStaff{} music function anyway. So it’s always a temporary device,
unless you use \crossStaff as a toplevel music function or so.

Hi Simon,

In my scores I just add the \crossStaff to one of the parts and it all just
happens. I don’t have to use \crossStaff in both connected parts. Am I
doing something wrong? If so, it is curious that is works so well (perhaps
too well, in this case!)

Restricting cross staff stems

[Andrew Bernard]

Greetings all,

Referring to the attached image, I want the cross staff stems to not extend
to the top staff, temporarily, for a short section of score. Can this be
done? Is there a way to temporarily remove the span stem engraver for a
brief passage? I don’t want to fudge it by shifting the top notes a little,
as the vertical alignment matters in this score.
