I just engraved a piece for which the standard solutions given in this thread worked especially badly. There were many 8th notes alternating with 8th rests (which should be merged by Lilypond, but can't be automatically), so switching back and forth between a polyphonic structure and \oneVoice was not workable.
Tedious to enter and tedious to read, but it should work. A standard manual solution, not yet mentioned in this thread - defines a sequential music variable for just the shared 'r' - includes this as \oneVoice in parallel with the other voices - all these other voices have 's' where the shared rests are Features: - this variable can be thought of as associated with the staff - it can be left untransposed while the other voices are transposed - that way, the positioning produced by using '\rest' is stable - none of the other voices has a special role regarding shared restsYou may find this somewhat tedious to enter, but it is a lot easier to read.
Cheers, Robin
