\partial with full measure rests
Dear all, I have been checking old posts for this same problems, but my case is slightly different, and I would like to ask your opinion/advice on this. I have a score ending with a partial measure, and some parts do not play on that measure. For instance part a ends like this: \time 2/2 g2 fis4. g8 \bar || \time 3/4 \partial 2 g2^Tous \bar || part b ends like this: \time 2/2 R1 \bar || \time 3/4 \partial 2 R2 \bar || Lilypond gives a warning, and when I process part b the rest in the last measure is not shown. If I use a normal r2 rest, the result is that I cannot hide part b in the full score, even if I want it to be hidden (because of its rests). I hope this is not too confusing, I hope to get this last measure working.

What partial does is rewind the clock back, which isn't at all what you think it's doing. What you're trying to tell lilypond is that your last bar consists of beats 1 2. What you've actually told lilypond is that your last note, R2, is on the last beat (2/2) of the previous bar.

And Nicolas Sceaux gave me a workaround here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2009-10/msg00011.html Please try the following code: %%% %%% The following hack make regular rests hara-kiri-able %%% #(let* ((rest-def (assoc 'Rest all-grob-descriptions)) (meta-def (assoc 'meta (cdr rest-def))) (interfaces-def (assoc 'interfaces (cdr meta-def))) (interfaces (filter (lambda (interface) (not (eqv? interface 'rhythmic-grob- interface))) (cdr interfaces-def (set-cdr! interfaces-def interfaces)) A bug report has been added to the tracker. I hope somebody will start working on this issue...

I think I had put it at the beginning of the files. But I have not specified that the goal of this code is to make normal rests (i.e. used within \partial ) disappear when using \RemoveEmptyStaffContext .
