Re: Reduced fontsize when using partcombine

Hi, Trevor:

This is what I do:

                \new PianoStaff = "reduction"
                        \with
                        {
                                fontSize = #-2
                                \override StaffSymbol #'staff-space = #(magstep 
-2)
                                \override VerticalAlignment #'forced-distance = 
#8
                        }
                <<
                        \new Staff = "redUpper" << \global \redNotesUpper >>
                        \new Staff = "redLower" << \global \redNotesLower >>
                >>

That way, everything that appears in the "reduction" PianoStaff (or  
its component Staff contexts) is reduced in size.

Hope this helps!
Kieren.
