Re: Resolving "cannot resolve rest collision: rest direction notset"warnings

[Phil Holmes]

I use the PDF documentation, and looked in the index under "rests, collisions of", having decided it would be good to look at the index for "rests".  The index is your friend. This gave me the syntax for MultiMeasureRest and it was easy to adapt.

Thanks.

The (probably deserved) chastisement aside, finding things in the documentation does require knowing how to find them. Finding even obvious things in the documentation isn't always easy if you don't already know what to look for. As I had spent some time earlier looking for this and not found it, I can only state that it wasn't also terribly easy for me to find either.

But that aside, I do appreciate the help.

Best,

ARle

This isn't very hard to find in the documentation.  It's what I just did. Either use explicit positioning as you have been doing, or something like

\override Rest #'staff-position = #0
