OK, so just to sum up the situation: I now have TimeSignatures aligned
with barlines, which is fine for the topmost TimeSig, but not for the
"internals" ones between each StaffGroup (since, when occuring at the
beginning of a system, they collide with the left barline).
Not being able to move *only* those TimeSignatures, here's what I'll
do to prevent such collisions: I'll simply kill them :)
for the topmost TimeSig, I just specify
\override TimeSignature #'break-visibility = #end-of-line-invisible
and for the smallest ones inside the systems;
\override TimeSignature #'break-visibility = ##(#f #t #f)
It sort of works, so I guess this thread is now closed.
Many thanks to you guys, particularly Kieren, Neil, Joe, and last but
not least, Han-Wen "God" Nienhuys :)
Cheers,
Valentin
