    I have a keyboard vocal template but I would like to remove the stems on all the systems. I am new to this Lilly, so keep it simple. Will there be a problem with alignment of the keyboard and the lyrics?

    The code below can be used as is; there shouldn't be a problem with alignment.

    \score
    \layout {
    \context {
    \Staff
    \override Stem #'length = #0
    \override Stem #'transparent = ##t
    \override Flag #'transparent = ##t
    }
    }
    }

    Note: when you use this, slurs and ties will still be applied as though the stems were visible. You may wish to specify \slurUp, \slurDown, etc. to get control of the placement.

    [I posted a correction to this below.]

    Oops: I misstated that. Rather, if you use \stemUp and \stemDown, then you can position the invisible stems on one side, so that slurs and ties will be placed on the other.
