Comment #27 on issue 2445 by [email protected]: Center a number above a
measure
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2445
I'm not in a position to try this right now, but this quote from David
Kastrup in the thread you cite above provides the clue to the solution for
this problem:
"Well, scheme-text-spanner changes the \Global context [as does
Measure_counter_engraver], and quote
environments uses the layout definition partCombineListener in
ly/declarations-init.ly with an unchanged Global context.
Change its Global context similarly, and you should be set."
I'll see if I can work up some code to add to the .ly file. This is just a
stopgap measure for the .ly file, though. When (and if!) this engraver
ever makes it into the code base, this extra tampering that David K.
alludes to won't be necessary.
