Hello! I'm a pretty unexperienced Lilypond user. I'm working on the layout of a small piece. It's basically a hymn written using a piano staff. If both voices have a rest on the first beat and start on the second beat I get two quarter note rests. I need it to be just one. I learned how to make arest invisible, but that doesn't change the position for the remaining rest.Is there a easy way of doing this?
Use \voiceOne and \voiceTwo when the parts have separate notes, and \oneVoice and a spacer rest when you want a single centred rest.
Furthermore, the piece ends with just 3 bars on the last line. But i fills upp the whole page anyway. Is there a way of getting the 3 bars to take up the same as the bars above? Making a 4th invisible bar!?
Look up "ragged" in the Notation Reference. --Phil Holmes
