Hi there, This is my first message so apologies if its a bit simple. I am just trying to put some centered text on each bar of music. One word per a bar. The code below puts the words at the end, so I guess its aligning to the note rather than the bar. I am generating this in

I agree that #NEUTRAL would be a better mnemonic. However, I was under the impression that David was just reusing #CENTER which already exists... So, #CENTER should probably be renamed to #NEUTRAL everywhere. (Or both should exist as aliases for #0). By the way, David, thanks a lot for your

One way would be to align the text to a note that's in the center of the bar. (That note could be invisible.) E.g. {r8 r8 r8 r8 c8 r8 c8 c8} {s2 s2-\markup{\center-align bar3}} On Sat, Jun 16, 2012 at 10:01 AM, simon blackmore l...@simonblackmore.netwrote: Hi there, This is my first
