Re: follow voice in larger score?

[Peter Lutek]

to follow up on my own question of a few days ago:

i've found that follow.Voice is also functional in a StaffGroup context, 
and that one can fill the spaces voided by the translated voice with 
rests. this makes follow.Voice useful in the context of a larger score, 
to indicate where one instrument carries on a line started by another.

here's an example:

\score {
   \notes \relative c'
   \context StaffGroup <
   \property StaffGroup.followVoice = ##t
   \context Staff=one \context Voice {
       c1
       \translator Staff=three
       b2 a
   }
   \context Staff=one { \skip 1 R1 }
   \context Staff=two {\clef tenor d4 e f g f e d c }
   \context Staff=three {\clef bass R1 \skip 1 }
   >
   \paper{
   raggedright = ##t
   }
}

perhaps there are some gremlins hiding in this scheme, which will bite 
me at some point.... but for now it looks plausible. comments, anyone?
