That example is almost correct, apart from the \version line. It needs to be at least 2.19.38. Assuming that this version will already contain the patch Current branch: issue4785 Tracker issue: 4785 (https://sourceforge.net/p/testlilyissues/issues/4785/) Rietveld issue: 293730043 (https://codereview.appspot.com/293730043) Issue description: Let TextSpanner inherit any direction set in event Something like c_\startTextSpan should create a TextSpanner below the system. In other words: this should have worked but didn't. Without a testable example in all of the thread, I was not going to bother with checking. Now that I've been able to check, I've created a fix. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
