David,
Nice solution!
Richard,
If you'd like to know what the default nesting hierarchy is, you can
refer to "engraver-init.ly", which shows this heirarchy of the
different contexts that support nesting (recursion removed for
simplicity):
Score accepts...
|- GrandStaff
|
|- StaffGroup accepts...
| |- GrandStaff
| |- PianoStaff
| |- ChoirStaff
| |- StaffGroup
|
|- ChoirStaff accepts...
|- GrandStaff
|- PianoStaff
|- StaffGroup
I believe that this is what is causing the stencil to not show up like
you were experiencing since the GrandStaff context, by default, doesn't
accept a ChoirStaff one. However, if you'd really like to do that (I
think this probably isn't your real goal), you can simply tell LilyPond
to accept it and the proper nested braces/brackets appear as you would
expect:
\version "2.18.0"
\score {
<<
\new GrandStaff <<
\new Staff { s1*4/4 }
\new ChoirStaff <<
\new Staff { s1*4/4 }
\new Staff { s1*4/4 }
\new Staff { s1*4/4 }
>>
>>
>>
\layout {
\context {
\GrandStaff
\accepts "ChoirStaff"
}
}
}
It looks a little funny to me, but that's how you would implement this
behavior.
Regards,
Abraham
