Ralph,

 

Have you tried making 3 normal staves (not ossia) match 4 normal staves and progress from there?

I'm running LY 2.12.3 under Ubuntu.

I'm trying to engrave an ossia for two staves, and the the three measure ossia replaces four measures in the regular staff. I'm attaching an image of what I'm looking for. I've tried to find a solution in the manual, in the user list archives, and in the Snippets List, with no luck. I've been able to get the main staves and the ossia staves, but I can't figure out how to get three measures in the ossia to match four measures in the regular staves. I suspect cadenza might help somehow. Can anyone help?

Thanks for the reply, Phil -

Yes, at least sort of. I think I remember one or more discussions on the list about matching unequal lengths in two staves, and that's part of what I was searching for in the archives and the snippets list, but I couldn't find anything. I'm hoping someone can remember the thread(s) and give me a clue on a search term.
