What happens if I prepend that staff to the rest of the lead sheet, which starts with: leadSheet = { << \new ChordNames { \harmony } ..... Is that the new Staff continues instead of being interrupted. I'd want it completely detached instead (and smaller). Nice one, line-count, but I think I can deal with full staff as well. --strk;
