Re: \partcombine error when Solo starts with a rest

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hi all,

Here’s the hack I came up with so I can move forward with today’s engraving:

%%%  SNIPPET BEGINS
\version "2.19.46"

restify =
  \tweak NoteHead.stencil #ly:text-interface::print
  \tweak NoteHead.text \markup \musicglyph #"rests.2"
  \tweak Stem.stencil ##f
  \etc

musicA = {
    \restify e''4 e''2 c''4
}
musicB = {
    g'2 e'
}

\new Staff \partcombine \musicA \musicB
%%%  SNIPPET ENDS

There are ways to improve this, I’m sure… but it seems to work for what I need.
I hope it helps someone else.

Cheers,
Kieren.
