Erika,

 

Is the \break necessary?

Subject: Too high measure numbers with ossia staff

 

Hi,

 

I just learned how to use the ossia staff. And I'm quite happy with the results, except it seems that the measure numbers follow the hidden ossia staff instead of the first visible staff. Can anyone think of a nice way to move the measure numbers down? Below is a modified version of the example in the documentation.

 

\version "2.18.2"

 

oss = \markup {\raise #1 "ossia" }

 

music = \relative c' {

    <<

      { c4 b c2 }

      \context Staff = "ossia" {

        \stopStaff s1

      }

    >>

   

    <<

      { e4 f e2 }

      \context Staff = "ossia" {

        \startStaff e4^\oss g8 f e2 \stopStaff

      }

    >>

    g4 a g2 \break

    c4 b c2

    <<

      { g4 a g2 }

      \context Staff = "ossia" {

        \startStaff g4^\oss e8 f g2 \stopStaff

      }

    >>

    e4 d c2

  }

 

\score{

<< 

  \new Staff = "ossia" \with {

    \remove "Time_signature_engraver"

    \hide Clef

    fontSize = #-3

    \override StaffSymbol.staff-space = #(magstep -3)

    \override StaffSymbol.thickness = #(magstep -3)

  }

  \new Staff <<\music>>

>> 

}

 

 

Thanks in advance!
