Jim You can make barlines transparent or not by including the following at appropriate points in melody:
\override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##t % hide following barlines \override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##f % show following barlines The inserts I've shown in melody below should achieve what you want, I think.
