Re: Doing some strange stuff with multi-measure rests

[caagr98]

Yeah, that seems to work, thanks!

I'd prefer if it didn't reduce the left margin, but there's no point in 
being picky. I guess it can be fixed by tweaking the X-offset and the 
scaling factor. I'm considering experimenting with modifying the stencil 
expression itself, though.

Getting the drum roll to be normal-sized is easy - just don't make it a 
grace.

As for the text inside the MMR, I think one possible way would be to 
make MMRNumber.text contain both the fermata and a whiteouted text.
