Your solution works with R1*4 for example, but not with s1*4.
I assume I have to add an *-interface, but I can't find which.

Re: Scaling Scores
Peter, you wrote Saturday, April 04, 2015 11:51 PM
Using version 2.18.2, I found that #(set-global-staff-size 10) inserted
at the book level scales everything on the page nicely. Ditto for a big
size like 40. But \score{ … \layout { #(layout-set-staff-size 10) } } has
unpredictable results. The documentation at
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation-big-page#setting-the-staff-size
doesn't make a distinction.
There is a footnote on that page:
Known issues and warnings
layout-set-staff-size does not change the distance between the staff lines.
Maybe this is the issue that affected you. Perhaps that comment should be
moved to the main text.

A tuplet is nothing more than a sequence of notes that do not have a
discrete duration like 1/4 or 1/8. For example, a 3/2 tuplet means the notes
have 2/3 of the notated durations. I'd say it would be feasible to write
a8 \tuplet 3/2 { f8 a c } b
as
a8 f5 a c b8
where 5 approximates the duration of 2/3*8 = 5.33.

Well, 1) using estimated values seems unprofessional, and 2) the point
about a tuplet is that it’s not the same as a mere scaled duration: it
creates a visual indication of the proportion. And the coding you
propose mixes the two, I think. For me, if ever, a8 f5 a c b8 would be
analogous to a8 f8*2/3 a c b8, which gives different output.

Re: Displaying a staff despite \removeEmptyStaves
Hi Anton,

\removeEmptyStaves is used?
You need to add multi-measure-rest-interface to the keepAliveInterfaces for
that staff.
Here are the two bits of syntactic sugar I use:
showMMRs = {
\set Staff.keepAliveInterfaces =
#'( rhythmic-grob-interface
multi-measure-rest-interface
lyric-interface
stanza-number-interface
percent-repeat-interface) }
hideMMRs = \unset Staff.keepAliveInterfaces
So put a \showMMRs in your music expression at the point where you want to
force that Staff context to appear (despite having \RemoveEmptyStaves active),
and put a \hideMMRs when you want it to return to “default” (i.e., the Staff
will disappear, if possible).
Hope this helps!
