Re: Hiding or delaying new staffs

[Steve Downes]

Phil & Eluze,

Please accept my apologies.

I have found the problem & it is down to me not being careful enough

I am new to lilypond & virtually new to compiled languages &
struggling with the level of attention to detail required.

Will try to do better.

Many thanks

Steve
