Actually, I understand what Aaron is saying for movement titles.
A measure expression can be set to align with the left barline of bar 1, handle
centre aligned, but with an additional horizontal offset of exactly half the
printed page width (3.5 inches for an 8X11 sheet with .75 inch margins). This
would exactly centre it on the page above the first system of that movement for
all parts, no matter what the layout, and it would move with the first system,
whatever you did with it. If you indent your first system, just deduct that
amount from the additional offset.
Very cool, Aaron!
It only goes some of the way, though: It doesn't handle several lines
(you can only left allign them, not center), and if you have different
indents for the first system (ie depending on the staff names for
instance, and different in score and parts) it simply doesn't work any
more without a lot of fiddling and readjustment.
