broken crescendo

[Orm Finnendahl]

Hi,

sorry to bug the list with all these questions, but the score needs to
get finished urgently. At least I'm advancing, having finished one
line of a violin solo piece (5 bars) today in just 10 hours continous
work ;-) Contemporary music notation just sucks, but at least it's a good
test case for the program.

Is there a way to interrupt a crescendo hairpin for a specified amount
of time (like in the \startStaff \stopStaff example). Something to
blank out some part of the hairpin...

BTW: I didn't solve the accidental colliding with the barline yet...
