Re: Removing a time signature only once
Hi Christopher, tl;dr: How does one remove a time signature completely (not just transparent) without removing the time signature engraver? I believe this will work: \once \override TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f Hope this helps!

Thanks, Kieren. That doesn’t seem to work (in 2.14.2); whether I put it
before or after the \time assertion, the time signature shows up unchanged.
songGlobalsVerse = {
s8 |
% \once \override TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f % tried this
\time 6/8
\once \override TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f % this doesn’t work either
s2.*8 | \bar ||
}

Hi Christopher,

You need to specify the context:
songGlobalsVerse = {
s8
\once \override Staff.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f
\time 6/8
s2.*8
\bar ||
}
\score { \songGlobalsVerse }
Cheers,
Kieren.

a) Wrong context. Because no context is mention, Voice is implied, b) it should
come before you want to change the time signature. Other tips and tricks for
removing contexts and engravers can be found in the learning manual, section 4.

The time signature is invoked in songGlobalsVerse.
That’s used in a Staff:
songVocals = \new Staff
\clef treble
{
\songGlobalsIntro
\repeat volta 6 {
\songGlobalsVerse
\songGlobalsChorus
}
}
\new Voice = vocal {
\songTacetIntro
\repeat volta 6 {
\songMelodyVerse
\songMelodyChorus
}
}
That is, in turn, used in both a layout and a midi context:
\score {
\songVocals
\layout {}
}
The time signature is displayed.

As previously noted in kieren's email, you need to add Staff. before
TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f in order to specify the context that you want the
override to take place in. In the Internals reference, you can see that the
TimeSignature engraver lives in the Staff context, and as explained in the
learning manual section 4.3.1 (using barlines instead of time signatures, but
exactly the same situation) when you want to override the visibility of
something, you have to tell lilypond which context it's in, if it's not the
implicit Voice context.

Yes! Thank you, James. I had not properly understood Kieren. This works now. ~Chris -- Chris Maden, text nerd URL: http://crism.maden.org/ Axial tilt is the reason for the season.
