Re: position whole measure rest

[Damian Legassick]

thanks mats

the problem i was thinking of is when you've done all the parts in  
their own files with their own formatting.

to compile the score (with different formatting) i would have  
somewhere in score.ly (e.g.) \include fluteOne.ly and within  
fluteOne.ly i would have \fluteOneMusic.

the question is how to get the rests in \fluteOneMusic to be  
'correct' in fluteOne.ly and 'offset' in score.ly if in the score i  
wish to have \fluteOne and fluteTwo sharing the same staff.

an additional problem is that the value for MultiMeasureRest #'staff- 
position will most likely not stay fixed throughout
