Re: extra staves - help required

[Bill Mooney]

Hi Keith,
Thanks for the 'override'. I achieved a satisfactory result by using 
'hspace' to move a markup - the 'Or' didn't actually have to be in line 
with the staff.
I am a rank amateur with regard to dealing with LP, and with music 
setting generally, and am very grateful for the help available from all 
the other users.
Your comment about LP's 'job-description' is interesting... I have read 
the original 'Essay', and have pored over the various manuals, but I 
haven't found any definitions of what LP regards as 'Engraving Best 
Practice'. A case in point being where LP places simultaneous rests in a 
staff with two voices. In the small number of scores I have in such a 
situation the rests are vertically closer together if not actually 
replaced with only one rest.
This is a bit off the original topic, but it would be interesting to 
know the original rationale if you know of it! :)

Thanks again
Regards
Bill
