Wow. Thanks (haven't tried it yet). Meanwhile, I've been corresponding on the lilypond mailing list, and, after hard-earned incremental findings, I was able to produce a PDF that has two verses below the score section, arranged in two adjacent columns, with appropriate vertical spaces (things like getting a vertical space was hard-earned, believe me :-), and a single, centered column (verse) below the two. They also helped me with things like a horizontal rule. One big "a-ha" moment there was when I realized my lilypond version was too old. They were talking about things like "\vspace" and stuff, and my lilypond 2.12.3 interpreter (latest ubuntu build) would throw a fatal syntax error at that, but the newer 2.16.1 worked, with a bunch of (non-fatal) errors nonetheless... I will check out your addition. But, just applying general GUI knowledge sense -- it would seem impossible to provide an end-all & be-all, comprehensive text formatting capability within denemo (to the extent that lilypond itself provides, at this point) You might need to develop a whole elaborate metalanguage, just for the layout and text markups... (columns, bolding, italics, etc)... thanks! > > On Fri, 2012-11-23 at 05:43 -0500, Bric wrote: > > > > On November 22, 2012 at 11:27 AM rshann <[email protected]> wrote: > > > It's far simpler than the Critical Commentary stuff for sure, but not > > > been done yet. > > > At its simplest its just a matter of emitting the lines of the verses > > > with \markup "....." around them > > > at the end of the score layout. > > > > Woohoo!!
