What were you looking for in terms of combining? Typically, I found partcombine best when the parts are occasionally the same, but it can be adapted to normal multiple voice music, I guess. In the image that I see, the lower voice has stems down, the upper voice has stems up and the lyrics

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.
