Title: show a limited portion of the accompanyment staff
Post by: Paul H. Borisoff on 2000-08-12 04:00 AM
I want to show a small portion of the treble melody-line of the piano accompanyment for a few measures and then do a similar event a little later for a few more measures.

I would rather not have a blank staff (for the piano) running throughout the piece; only a little piano melody line through a couple more difficult areas.

Can one cause certain areas of staff not to print or take up paper space. Kind of like accompanyment 'vignettes'.

Thank you

These are called ossia mesures, they come to explain a passage or substitute it, I (personally) don't think Nw is going to input that, but you can do like this:
Use a User font as NWC15.ttf, this comes with Nwc, then insert a text with only spaces, this font will make then an ossia, but it will be blank, so input in handwriting the notes you want.
