Such a useful livestream, thanks so much for making it available. I would love to dive into zero staff lines in more detail. I can't wrap my head around how they work or how to generate them.

Thanks for making a template file available with them included!

I hope they'll make copying frames easier soon. Otherwise, lots of helpful tips here. Thanks!
