Hello to everybody! I'm typesetting a Mozart's aria with a preceding recitativo and I would like to add some "ossia" measures to suggest appoggiature. Most of these measures are actually only bits of a measure (such as the first two quaters).
I've followed the manual suggestion about ossia measures ( I'm using version 2.10.16) and I've almost obtained my goal. I've found only a problem: when an "ossia" measure appears at the very start of a system, it is connected to the other staves by the start delimiter. Is there a way to avoid this and let the "ossia" measure (and its invisible "ossia" staff) alone as it is, for instance, in the middle of a system? This is a bit snippet to explain the situation I'm trying to modify: %%%% SNIPPET BEGINS %%%%% \version "2.10" \score { << \new Staff = ossia \with { \remove "Time_signature_engraver" \remove "Clef_engraver" fontSize = #-2 \override StaffSymbol #'staff-space = #(magstep -2) \override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-1 . 1) \override BarLine #'transparent = ##t firstClef = ##f } \relative c'' { \autoBeamOff \stopStaff s1*4 \break | \startStaff c8 b \stopStaff s2. | s1*4 } \new Staff \relative c'' { \autoBeamOff r4 r8 g g g a b | c4 r r2 | R1*2 | b8 b d b c4 r | R1*4 } >> } %%%%% SNIPPET ENDS %%%%%% In the resulting pdf, at the start of the second system, there's an "ossia" measure connected with the other staff as if it were a normal staff. Is there a way to avoid this? Thank you all for your kindness! Gianluca D'Orazio ------------------------------------------------------ Dimagrire in 30 Giorni, Soddisfatti o Rimborsati!
