Hello:

I am working on an organ piece by Vierne that is in 9/4 time.

The whole measure rest in 9/4 time is much narrower that what appears
in standard Durand edition of the 24 Pièces en style libre.

How do I make the whole measure rest in 9/4 time appear as it does in
4/4 time?

See the tiny example below. Measure 1 shows a whole measure rest in 9/4
time, and Measure 2 shows a whole measure rest in 4/4 time?

How do I make the whole measure rest in Measure 1 appear like the whole
measure rest in Measure 2?

I read the documentation on whole measure rests and snippets. I also
searched the Lilypond email archive and Google, but an answer did not
jump out at time, unless I overlooked somethings.

Thank to anyone who can provide an answer.

\version "2.19.82"

{
  \time 9/4

  R1*9/4 |

  \numericTimeSignature \time 4/4 R1 |
}

I asked a similar question earlier this year.  Here is your answer:

\version "2.19.82"

{
  \time 9/4
  \override MultiMeasureRest.usable-duration-logs = #'(0)
  R1*9/4 |

  \numericTimeSignature \time 4/4 R1 |
}
