Thank you, Trevor and Kieren.  It turns out that Trevor's solution 
worked best for my situation since I don't need any midi output.  I 
really appreciate the help.

Hi Aaron,

\override Rest #'X-extent = #'(0 . 0)



Thank you, Kieren.  I'm afraid that's not doing it for me.  Here's a 
very minimal example:


\version "2.10.19"
\paper{ ragged-right=##t }

allMusic = \relative c'' {
c4 d \override Rest #'X-extent = #'(0 . 0) s2 | e4 f g a
}

\score {
\new Staff \allMusic
}

The \override doesn't seem to make any difference to the output.  I'm 
trying compress as much as possible the space created by that 's2' 
before the bar line.


Thank you again for your help!
Aaron

Hi Aaron,


The \override doesn't seem to make any difference to the output.


Well, since you applied it to a skip (and not a rest), I'm not  
surprised!  ;-)


I've attached a sample of what I was suggesting.

Hope this helps!
Kieren.

%%
\version "2.11.57"
\paper { ragged-right = ##t }

original = \relative c'' {
c4 d s2 | e4 f g a
}

fixed = \relative c'' {
\override Rest #'transparent = ##t
\override Rest #'X-extent = #'(2 . -2) c4 d r2 | e4 f g a
\override Rest #'X-extent = #'(1 . -1) c,4 d r2 | e4 f g a
\override Rest #'X-extent = #'(0 . 0) c,4 d r2 | e4 f g a
}

\markup { "ORIGINAL:" }
\score { \original }

\markup { "FIXED (THREE WIDTHS):" }
\score { \fixed }
%%

I´m not sure what you exactly want, but maybe you can give us a short
.ly example?

You could try to use s followed by the value of the invisible rest.

Hi Aaron,

Is it possible to create hidden rests that do not create visible  
space?


\override Rest #'X-extent = #'(0 . 0)

Hope this helps!

Hidden rests without visible space

2008-09-04 Thread Aaron Dalton
Is it possible to create hidden rests that do not create visible space?  I 
have used skips to layout a series of variations but there is far too much 
white space around the barlines separating variations.  I am hoping to 
find a way to still use skip but greatly compress the space it generates.


Thanks for your help!
