Reproducible Issue with Condensing (tripling a doubling?!)

[MicheleGalvagno]

Please open the attached project which manages to reproduce an issue with an orchestral score. If you remove the system breaks the issue at the beginning of the second system goes away.

So, how can I avoid this?

If you remove the unnecessary manual condensing changes the problem goes away…

[MicheleGalvagno]

Sorry. What I need is one voice in the first system or, at least, no rests in bars 3-4, and then separated from bar 5.

So just reposition the second condensing change (you will end up with a single rest, which I think is unavoidable - though others may have a solution)…

[MicheleGalvagno]

Exactly. That rest is not acceptable.

I think I have gotten somewhere by inserting a Reset + Hide rests in inactive players in bar 3 and nothing else until bar 6.

[Janus]

OK. Change the first condensing change to this…

Nice, thank you!
