I've used this snippet for a while now, together with mmrest = { \once \override MultiMeasureRest.staff-position = #2 } %% and is used thus: \mmrest R1 \mmrest R2. because it doesn't handle whole-measure rests...or does it now? I have come across this reference, which claims to handle them, but I have yet to try it out: https://github.com/wbsoft/lilymusic/blob/master/include/merge-rests.ily > Having abovementioned LSR snippet: here in Ukraine quarter rests in > the first measure should be merged, but in the second one upper voice > hsould be notated as r4 r e g and two quarter rests should not be > merged. Am I looking at the same image? I'm struggling to find anything that could be r4 r4 e4 g4 within it. The zeroth¹ measure is the intonation, right? There shouldn't be a rest; in fact, there shouldn't be two staves at that point, should there. In my image, measure 1 stave 2 of the piece is where you want the four quarter-rests merged into two. That would be conventional. > 2017-03-28 12:09 GMT+03:00 Menu Jacques <imj-...@bluewin.ch>: > > Hello folks, > > > > Two questions about the display style for Recordare's Binchois20.xml file: > > > > - should there be only one set of quarter rests under (CT.) in the lower > > staff, and if so, how can that be done (i.e. to « mask » a rest in a voice > > if there’s already one at the same point in another voice in the same > > staff)?

Do you mean you're thinking of writing the first quarter-notes in measure 2 stave 2 with the stem up on C and down on A? I can see no reason at all to change what's in the image. The parts cross, that's all. ¹ counting measures in the image from zero, so the polyphony starts at one. Cheers, David.
