Comment #19 on issue 4022 by [email protected]: Patch: Allow specifying
different alignment for grob and its parent
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=4022
Having separate properties indeed makes sense. Let me just say why I have
favored one property: I wanted to make it simple to change both alignments
to the same number, and I wanted to maintain backward compatibility in case
of Lyrics. For example, if we have
{ d'1 }
\addlyrics { laaaa }
both default alignments are CENTER. If the user writes \override
LyricText.self-alignment-X = #LEFT, he gets a left-aligned syllable (like
in melismas). If we have two separate properties, \override
LyricText.self-alignment-X = #LEFT will have different (and probably quite
surprising) output than now.
Do you have some idea on how we could mitigate these problems?
