I'm trying to use Lilypond 2.18.2 to engrave a piece with two sections: a verse for piano (18 bars), and a chorus for choir (8 bars). I'm trying to follow the Lilypond example "Solo Verse and Two-Part Refrain", which takes advantage of RemoveEmptyStaves. However, Lilypond doesn't seem to be inserting any line breaks within the verse, so the music runs off the edge of the page.



I have tried to reduce the following example as much as possible, but it needs to have a lot of notes to reproduce the problem, so it is still a bit long. Sorry about that.



#(set-default-paper-size "letter")

version "2.18.2"
language "english"

global =
key c major
time 6/8


verseTreble = relative c'
c8 e g c g e

verseBass = relative c
c8 e g c g e

chorusSoprano = relative c'
g2.

chorusAlto = relative c'
g2.

score

new Staff = "upper" verseTreble
new Staff = "lower" verseBass
>>
new ChoirStaff <<
new Staff <<
new Voice = "s"
chorusSoprano

new Staff <<
new Voice = "a"
chorusAlto

>>
>>
>>

layout
% ragged-right = ##t
context
Staff
RemoveEmptyStaves
override VerticalAxisGroup.remove-first = ##t





Here is the output, converted to PNG. Note that the last 8 measures of the piano verse are off the page. No warnings are issued when compiling.

          Remember that full-measure rests in LilyPond are input with a capital R. Thus every instance where you have r2. (or r2.*8, etc.), you should instead have R2. (or R2.*8, etc.).



          Making this change in all voices corrects the problem. In the example you gave, it's present in the final lines of both the treble and bass and it's present in two lines each for the soprano and alto.
