I'm working on an orchestral score wherein the string parts
play some extended passages divisi, and it makes sense to
divide the staves during those passages.
When they are playing in unison, I'd like to hide the second staff.
However, when the second staff is hidden,
the SystemStartSquare is still visible.
Simply adding
\override StaffGroup.SystemStartSquare.transparent
to the relevant systems does not work.
It seems as though once transparency is set to ##t, it won't switch back later.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

How about:

\override StaffGroup.SystemStartSquare.collapse-height = #5

HTH,

P.S.

Devs,

Both SystemStartBrace and SystemStartBracket have this property set by default, but SystemStartSquare does not. Is this intended?
