I want to annotate a particular passage with a footnote. So far I have managed to get what I want in the music itself with:
\override Score.FootnoteItem.annotation-line = ##f \footnote "*" #'(0 . 3) "Theme by Louis Drouet" This produces an asterisk over the first note of the relevant passage, which is exactly what I want. But there are 3 things about the footnote itself which I would like to alter. 1) If I don't specify a mark, Lilypond puts a "1" by the grob and by the footnote. But if I do specify a mark, the footnote itself does not show it, i.e. it has no asterisk (in this case) by it. I want the footnote to display the asterisk, otherwise it will not be clear why there is an asterisk in the score. 2) Lilypond produces a horizontal line separating the footnote area from the main part of the page. I would prefer not to have this - assuming that I can get the asterisk to be displayed next to the footnote, there is no ambiguity about what the footnote is there for. 3) I would like this footnote centred, rather than left-aligned on the page, but I haven't figured out how to do this. No doubt it involves normal markup commands, but I can't work out how to apply them in this case. (I have never used footnotes before.) Thanks for any suggestions.
