<div>It looks like it really is a measure-by-measure showing and hiding of particular staves, so I might agree with your first instincts of adding @visible to individual staves. I would be interested in hearing more about why this is not a good option, though.</div>

<div>What will you expect the rendered score to look like? That may inform what the best option is for encoding it. </div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Dear MEI community,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">many of you might currently be on vacation or enjoying the sunny weather, but we have to ask you for a short interruption, because we need your opinion and advice on an issue concerning the encoding of invisible content
and staves.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">In our project on the digital edition of the study book of Anton Bruckner, we came across many pages, in which multiple staves need to be made invisible. In particular, there is one exercise across five pages, where the
instrumentation changes every two lines, sometimes even after each line. That’s why the header in this file contains 32 different staffDefs. We were trying to hide unnecessary staves by inserting @visible=”false” into the staff elements in the measures in
question, but, of course, that only makes the <i>content</i> invisible, staves and barlines remain unhidden.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We talked to Laurent about this issue and he would be happy to implement a function in Verovio to change the layout in such a way, except not via making content invisible on the staff-level, but by using scoreDef.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Now, the questions are: should @visible be made usable for changing the layout? If not, then scoreDef would be probably most suitable, which leads to the question: how should this information be included in scoreDef?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">In our special case, we would like to use the @label-information of the staffDef in not only the first system, but also each time the instrumentation changes. So we could cheat, delete every invisible staff and use <dir>
to label the staves, when new instruments occur, but this is not pretty at all and we would not be happy with this solution.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Thank you very much in advance!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
