Change Staff problem with rests

2006-05-12 Thread Brett Duncan
Hi When I used the \change Staff command in a piano arrangement I'm working on, I found it necessary to force the stem directions to avoid column clashes. No problem. However, I've found that if both parts have a rest at the same moment, I get error messages like this... warning: can't resol
