Re: \RemoveEmptyStaves not removing first line

[Susan Buckingham]

Have also used the \override VerticalAxisGroup.remove-first = ##t and can confirm this works with 2.18.2 when added to score block.

\score {
  <<
    \flutePart
    \pianoPart
  >>
  \layout { #(layout-set-staff-size 22)
                 \context { \Staff \RemoveEmptyStaves
                                  \override VerticalAxisGroup.remove-first = ##t }
               }
  \midi { }
}

In 2.18.2 there is \override VerticalAxisGroup.remove-first = ##t for that.
