Hi Werner,
why not simply omitting the three middle bar lines, putting rests into the
empty space?
This should give even more contrast.
Not that I like this solution, but it would be creative :-)
Creative? Yes.
Shows off the awesomeness of Lilypond? Definitely.
Ultimately the best choice?

Hi Janek,
This reminds me of an idea i had: make stafflines under rests grey, to
make it immediately obvious where an instrument is resting (see
attached - obviously a bigger example would demonstrate this idea
better, but i don' have one). How do you like it?

Well, I don't like it. The contrast is
Hi Werner,
The contrast is not strong enough if you are viewing the image from a greater
distance.
As it is, it looks irritating to my eye.
Agreed — the lighter chosen here is insufficiently light.
However, the concept is one I'm interested in exploring.
Cheers,
Kieren.

applyContext is good for doing somethind conditionally anywhere in the
music stream:

I got to thinking about this [awesome!] engraver you whipped up for me… and I
realised that there are probably lots of places where someone might want an
engraver that says

where X could be any boolean and Y is one or more context or property changes.

I darkly remember a scheme engraver, that did something, whenever a
time-sig-schange happens. IIRC it is based on snippet from you David.

Hi Werner,
the larger the deviation from standard engraving practice, the

constantly lacking enough rehearsals). There must be *very* good

An excellent band-aid solution, which works very well for the time being.
