Thanks for reminding me of its existence; I use neither Completion_*_engraver.
Now:
\version "2.19.80"
\layout {
\context {
\Voice
\consists "Completion_rest_engraver"
}
}
{
\time 4/4
c'4
}
I believe Reggie would like the rest of that measure filled with rests (I’m
guessing a quarter rest and a half rest).
Cheers,
Kieren.
