@rettinghaus, I'll try to answer your questions: > The cutout attribute only allows the value "cutout". Is there a reason for this not to be a boolean? Using "cutout" for...

@th-we, In light of your examples, I think it may be helpful to make a distinction between `` and ``. Both will eliminate the staff lines, but the first will...

Example 1 above, not being a real-world example, has little credence. There's no reason why the change to a 1-line staff can't take place after the bar line. In the...

@sonovice, thanks for joining the discussion. I think we're in agreement on cut-outs. `` and `` will both allow `@cutout` making it possible to markup mid-measure cut-outs. However, mid-measure changes...

An ossia is not a cut-out. Here's one way to encode an ossia -- ``` ``` Another possibility is -- ``` ``` The first example indicates that there are 2...

@sonovice, I don't know what you mean by "initial space". If, by "initial space" you mean the missing ossia in measures 1-3, 5, 7-8, etc., those are taken care of...
