Dear all, I don't know whether this will be helpful at all, or whether it will just be some silly remark from an inexperienced user, but at least it may prevent future inexperienced users from making the same mistake:
I have been struggling with the same problem as Bob, and at first I also didn't succeed in making it work even when reading this thread. It turned out that I had rests at the beginning of the staff I wanted to hide, instead of the \skip command. Apparently (correct me if I'm wrong), rests (as opposed to a \skip) are considered real 'content', which is why they are not hidden.
