Hi Pierre,

Thank you for this. The result is what I wanted, as far as the horizontal 
centering of the music example is concerned. In most ways what your ME produces 
is a lot neater than what I had concocted and so there is much that I can learn 
from it and use.

About the other problem, the large space between the musical example and the 
next text-block, I'm not quite sure. In my own ME this gap is about twice a 
large as in your example, but in my real score it is almost 3 times as large as 
in my ME and 5 times as large as in your ME. 

I think I'll first have to incorporate the structural elements of your code in 
my complete .ly-file to see what happens. 

Thanks again.

Best regards,
Robert
