Re: Whole bar rests - in the wrong place

[Mats Bengtsson]

If you have a monophonic section in the middle of an otherwise 
polyphonic piece, you can
use the \oneVoice command to get the normal settings for stem directions 
and rest positions
and then \voiceOne when you to back to being the top voice in polyphony. 
Please read
section "Explicitly instantiating voices" in the manual (in the Learning 
Manual if you look
at the documentation for version 2.11) to get a clearer picture of what 
happens.

If you just want the full measure rests to stay on the middle line but 
the directions of stems,
slurs, ... to always be upwards in your top voice, you can also revert 
only the specific setting
related to the full measure rests, see
