How do you suggest dealing with this, then? In orchestral scores, it is common to have parts both sharing a staff (\partcombine) and doubling other instruments (\quoteDuring). If I can't use both these features together, it severely reduces the utility of Lilypond for typesetting orchestral scores. > > >> 2 (quotes-without-other-music): When there is no music in a staff except a >> \quoteDuring, nothing is drawn.
