When I code Well, i guess that your checks was far to simple for your case; actually you need something like this: - i need staff, lyrics and chords: - then staff is "Staff", lyrics is "Lyrics", chords is "Chords" - i need lyrics and chords: - then staff is "Devnull", those two are the same - etc-etc If you have a "container" (StaffGroup) the task is even more complicated .-) (manual says that "Devnull" can not contain other contexts) Sorry, i've not tested _all_ this; actually, yes, there are other, much more simple ways. Sorry!! :-) > that looks very interesting and can be very useful if you find the way. Well, this may be useful in very rare cases, i think (when i "really-really want" to specify "result" in a command line or like this -- when i, for some other reason, want to deal with _the only_ "master" source file). -- Dmytro O.

you're right. I thought that what you requested could be done with tags

that looks very interesting and can be very useful if you find the way.

Thanks for this suggestion. Indeed I do want to generate both scores,
so it looks like a perfect solution. :)

Sorry, i've not tested this much.
Which lilypond version do you use? That sample was tested (a bit,-) with
2.13.35, latest development so far. Well.. this works with 2.12 too, ive tried
just now.
First of all -- i'm not sure that this is the best (or even smart at all) way
to do "this" (and i am still not sure that i understood what's needed,-)
Anyway, please take a look -- this example produces ChoirStaff with two staves
if makeFor equals 'choir and produces single staff with \lowerMelody if
makeFor equals anything else.
How far this from a required result?
%--8<---
makeFor = #'choir
#(define myContainer (if (eq? makeFor 'choir)
"ChoirStaff"
"Devnull"))
#(define upperStaff (if (eq? makeFor 'choir)
"Staff"
"Devnull"))
upperMelody = \relative c'' {
c4 bes d c
}
lowerMelody = \relative c'' {
a4 g bes a
}
\score {
\new \myContainer <<
\new \upperStaff <<
\upperMelody
>>
\new Staff {
\lowerMelody
}
>>
}
%--8<---
I'm just interesting .-)
Playing with lilypond gives me a lot of fun and some experience, which can be
used later, for my own needs.
Or, if this is more convenient for you, could you post a small example ---
what you've tried and it wasn't work as desired?
Thanks.

Hello again,
I compiled your example, but it didn't compile without errors. I did
get the results you got, however.
I changed your code to obtain what I expected your code to produce:
==
%{
Example of variable stafftype with scheme funtions
%}
\version "2.13.32"
makeFor = #'piano
%makeFor = #'choir
%#(define myContainer (if (eq? makeFor 'choir)
% "ChoirStaff"
% "Devnull"))
myContainer =
#(if (eq? makeFor 'choir) "ChoirStaff" "PianoStaff")
%#(define upperStaff (if (eq? makeFor 'choir)
%"Staff"
%"Devnull"))
upperStaff =
#(if (eq? makeFor 'choir) "Staff" "Devnull")
upperMelody = \relative c'' {
c4 bes d c
}
lowerMelody = \relative c'' {
a4 g bes a
}
\score {
\new \myContainer <<
\new \upperStaff
{
\set Staff.instrumentName = \myContainer
<<
\upperMelody
>>
}
\new Staff {
\lowerMelody
}
>>
}
==
By setting the instrumentName to \myContainer I checked what was
actually happening. In your example an unrecoverable error occurred.
The above example is bug-free in the \version used.
I'll try to work this to a code for omitting the tablature staff, and
post it here.
