Re: Rhythms with no staff lines but with bar lines

[Mats Bengtsson]

By default, the length of each bar line is calculated from the height of 
the staff symbol.
Just add a setting
\override BarLine #'bar-size = #4
in your Staff definition. Note that there is no need to add the bar 
engraver at the voice level,
the existing bar engraver in the Staff context will do the job.
