Re: Switch the time signature off?

[Mats Bengtsson]

Anwer 1: This makes the time signature invisible, but still the
  space is allocated for it:
\property Staff.TimeSignature \override #'transparent = ##t

Answer 2: Remove all time signatures from the whole score:
\score{
  ...
  \paper{
    ...
    \translator{
      \ScoreContext
      \remove "Time_signature_engraver"
    }
  }
}

Answer 3: Remove the time signatures and the space for them
   from a single stave (warning, this method may lead to strange
   crasches):
\property Staff.TimeSignature = \turnOff


I hope these answers apply also to 1.6.4, the current stable
version is 2.0.
