Re: Determine event at the same time in other voice

[Jan-Peter Voigt]

Hi Urs,

as David mentioned, there are solutions on the list. And in LSR you find:
http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=336

And some time ago somebody posted the solution for multi-measure-rests 
... I am ashamed, that I forgot to note the name - I use it quite often.
You can either use
\layout { \mergeRests }
or
{ \mergeRestsOn \music \mergeRestsOff }

Best, Jan-Peter
