I once tried to find a way by first making a non-printed markup of only the "x" character, getting its Y-extent, then scaling based on that, but I was never successful. Maybe someone else will have a better idea for you, aside from adding another input parameter for to pass in to the 'fontsize markup macro.

Hi Abraham, > Just put \larger before \normal-text and it will respond to the 'font-size > property, but be at a larger point size than the rest of it. But the scaling factor is different depending on the font (x-height, etc.) — so don't I have to do that *inside* each function, and therefore duplicate each function in every stylesheet with a different font? I was hoping there was a more elegant solution… Thanks, Kieren.

scaling "normal text" font size inside dynamic
Hello,
Is there any way to change the font size of the "normal text" portion of mixed
dynamic markings, independently from the font size of the dynamic portion? For
example, in
p dolce
I'd like to increase the size of 'dolce' without increasing the size of the
'p'. I am using various functions to knit together dynamics and text, and I
have various stylesheets (which use different fonts), so I'd rather not have to
hard-code the scaling into each function and duplicate every function in each
stylesheet.
Below is an example of one of the functions I use, and the current effect of
increasing DynamicText.font-size (which is to increase the entire dynamic).
Thanks,
Kieren.
