Instrument with zero lines (0-line Staff)

@pavlos

I want the first and fifth line to be shown, but all the notes in between (and out) to be written.
Would that work?

Hi @pavlos, see this post (and other posts in that thread) for possible workarounds:

Change the number of staff lines in specific regions of a score

Sorry @simon.seeberger @klafkid @judddanby , I could not resist. I have another possibility. Is very easy, but needs a preliminary adjustment of the Horizontal line text font size, to obtain the needed “covering” of the lines throughout “erase background” (this adjustment is global so maybe not desirable if you need other lines with text in your piece). [EDIT: the increasing of the Horizontal Line text font is not necessary: use instead Block letters for the XXXX, and use the vertical padding …

But if you need for several bars the padding adjustments may be too much work, and the suggestion by @FredGUnn is surely better.
