Re: MultiMeasureRestNumber centered between staves

[Ryan McClure]

I think that this may do the trick:

\version "2.17.29"

\score {

\new PianoStaff <<

\new Staff {

\compressFullBarRests

\override MultiMeasureRest #'expand-limit = #1

\once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber #'transparent = ##t

R1*9

}

\new Staff {

\compressFullBarRests

\override MultiMeasureRest #'expand-limit = #1

\once \override MultiMeasureRestNumber #'Y-offset = 3.5

R1*9

}

>>

}

Essentially, this trick removes the "9" from the top staff by hiding it. The bottom staff's "9" is moved up to the center of these two staves. When you use this, if it is not centered perfectly, change the Y-offset from 3.5 to whatever you need.

Let us know if this helps! :)

I am typesetting an orchestral piece that includes a harp part with many full bar rests. I'd like the MultiMeasureRestNumbers to appear centered between the two staves, as in the attachment. How can I accomplish this?
