Notes, dynamic signs, etc. are grouped with a set of horizontal lines, into a staff (plural `staves'). In our system, these lines are drawn using a separate layout object called staff symbol.
This object is created whenever a Staff (lilypond-internals) context is
created. The appearance of the staff symbol cannot be changed by
using \override or \set. At the moment that
\property Staff is interpreted, a Staff (lilypond-internals) context
is made, and the StaffSymbol (lilypond-internals) is created before any
\override is effective. Properties can be changed in a
\translator definition, or by using \applyoutput.
If a staff is ended halfway a piece, the staff symbol may not end exactly on the barline.
