While the negative logic makes it not negligibly difficult to avoid errors in understanding, I see no good way to use this. If the usual method is: "If this Staff has anything interesting to say on this line, or if his friends in his keep-alive-together group do, then print him." this gives an option to reverse the action "If a Staff with the 'censor' flag set has anything interesting to say on this line, or if his friends in his keep-alive-together group do, then omit him." So while this would give users a way to have a combined staff disappear on exactly those lines when divisi staves are printed, it interferes with the usual function of removeEmptyStaves on the combined staff. We would need to declare that nothing the combined staff says is ever 'interesting', so there is no longer any way to LilyPond to remove the combined staff when the part is truly empty. A re-arrangement in logic could give a useful option "If a Staff with the 'alive_together_alternative' flag set has anything interesting to say on this line, but /none/ of his (un-flagged) friends in his keep-alive-together group do, then print him." https://codereview.appspot.com/6948058/ _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
