Ah, but that’s the crux: if they are not whole-measure rests, then the
staff isn’t considered empty and is not removed. I want three things,
that appear to be incompatible:
1) Staves with no notes to be removed.
2) Note-free measures to be displayed correctly, if in a non-removed staff.
3) No error or warning messages.
If I use whole-measure rests, staves are considered empty and are
removed, but (a) I get warnings, and (b) when displayed, partial
measures show as completely empty. If I use partial-measure rests,
staves with them are not considered empty and are not removed.
I have compromised in my “Si Bheag, Si Mhor” score by using
whole-measure rests and accepting the warnings, then seeing where the
empty measures are not removed and changing those back to
partial-measure rests. I feel like there should be a better way.
