But that's not a given. Take, for example, the output of
addKey = { \key g \major \time 4/4 } staffOneNotes = { \grace { d'16 g' b' } d''8 8 8 8 fis'8 8 g'4 } \score { \new StaffGroup << \new Staff \new Voice = "staffOne" << \addKey \staffOneNotes >> \new Staff \new Voice = "staffOne" { \addKey \staffOneNotes } >> }
Also, if you have something like \new StaffGroup { << \key c\major { c' c' c' c' } >> } you'll likely be surprised by the results... -- David Kastrup
