Re: VerticalAxisGroup #'remove-first = ##t does not work with \partial r

[Mats Bengtsson]

An alternative, found in the mailing archives is to do

\version "2.13.4"

show = \set Score.keepAliveInterfaces = #'(
   rhythmic-grob-interface
   lyric-interface
   percent-repeat-item-interface
   percent-repeat-interface
   stanza-number-interface
 )

hide = \unset Score.keepAliveInterfaces

\score {
 <<
   \new Staff {
     \partial 16 \hide r16 \show |
     R1*4 | \break
     R1*4 | \break
     c''1 | r2 r2
     \bar "|."
   }
   \new Staff {
     \partial 16 c'16 |
     \repeat unfold 4 { c'1 } | \break
     \repeat unfold 4 { c'1 } | \break
     c'1 | r2 r2
     \bar "|."
   }
 >>

 \layout {
   \context {
     \RemoveEmptyStaffContext
     \override VerticalAxisGroup #'remove-first = ##t
   }
 }

}
