Hi,
in a piece for large orchestra, I need text markup and tempo markings
which only appear on the top staff of the score and each part. I
defined an empty (invisible) staff with removed staff symbol, time
signature, etc., using skips instead of rests, which works well.
Unfortunately as soon as
I found it.
For someone googling this: You have to put
\new Staff \with { \override VerticalAxisGroup.remove-empty = ##f }
into your staff definition.
Sorry for the noise...

Hi,
in a piece
There’s a much better solution which doesn’t need a piccolo (or whatever
is on top) staff that is always present, even if it’s only filled with
pauses: Put \tempo and \mark into a global variable and add this to all
staffs; see attachment. This also lets you change things like time
signature
Hi Malte,
thanks for the recommendation. This isn't what I'm looking for as the
voice defined in the global variable included and repeated for each
staff results in the appearance of all markups like tempo and such on
all staffs. Defining a dedicated empty staff system (it's not the
piccolo)

The only thing I haven't figured out yet is, how I can make these
invisible staves disappear in case no staff of a certain staffgroup is
present at all. E.g. in large scores bar numbers normally get
displayed
Hi Orm,
The only thing I haven't figured out yet is, how I can make these
invisible staves disappear in case no staff of a certain staffgroup is
present at all.
Malte’s idea is the correct way to go, with a custom context (search for
ScoreMarks or MarksLine in the list archives).
To get it
Hi Kieren,
thanks for the note, I'll try to find that. Not sure whether it makes
sense at this moment to change in the current score (although it's
quite well modularized, the whole thing consists of about 600 files),
especially since I seem to be able to get everything worked out quite
well,
