L.S. In the process of converting an musicXML file (from capella) to lilypond all the rests are converted to rests with a specifed vertical position. Is there a way to convert them to 'ordinary' rests without ruining the score (due to the use of \relative music notation)? I'd like to stick to using \relative notation.
The short answer is: Yes. Staying with \relative will certainly not be a problem.
However, I think it will be a lot of work to find each and every rest and simplify the way it's written. The vertical positioning is done by adding some extra code to each one of them - simply removing that extra code from each rest should give what you want and cause no side-effects.
Ordinary rests are just r1 (for whole rest) r2 (for half rest) and so on.
