Fwd: Middle voices and rests

[David B. Stocker]

Hi group,

Any guess on how to make LilyPond automatically shift rests the way it shifts notes in middle voices to avoid collisions with other notes?

Here's a minimal example.

Thanks,

David

%% Example %%

\version "2.14"

upstems = {

\relative c' {

c2

}

}

middle = {

\relative c' {

g4 g

}

}

middleRest = {

\relative c' {

g4 \rest g

}

}

downstems = {

\relative c {

c2

}

}

\score {

<<

\new Staff {

\clef "treble_8"

<<

{ \new Voice { \voiceOne \upstems } }

{ \new Voice { \voiceThree \middle } }

{ \new Voice { \voiceTwo \downstems } }

>>

}

\new TabStaff {

<<

{ \upstems }

{ \middle }

{ \downstems }

>>

}

>>

}

\score {

<<

\new Staff {

\clef "treble_8"

<<

{ \new Voice { \voiceOne \upstems } }

{ \new Voice { \voiceThree \middleRest } }

{ \new Voice { \voiceTwo \downstems } }

>>

}

\new TabStaff {

<<

{ \upstems }

{ \middleRest }

{ \downstems }
