I am presently re-engraving a number of almost forgotten piano pieces.
One of them has under the first bar of the LH staff the text: "/sempre
2 Ped/", Ped being the usual standard notation as generated by \sustainOn.
Although the LilyPond documentation tells me somewhere that "Pedal
indications may be placed in a Dynamics context, which aligns them on
a horizontal line." this does obviously not imply that a
markup-construction such as
"\markup {\line {\concat \italic { più } { \dynamics f } }}" can be
used in my case.
What should I do here to align "/sempre 2/" with \sustainOn?
You can of course use a markup construction. The ‘Ped’ symbol is
available through \markup { \musicglyph #"pedal.Ped" }, see
<http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/the-feta-font#pedal-glyphs>
and
<http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/lilypond-command-index>
for \musicglyph.
So you /should/ be able to just do this:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.18.2"
sustainBothMrkp = \markup { sempre 2 \musicglyph #"pedal.Ped" }
sustainBothOn = -\tweak text \sustainBothMrkp \sustainOn
\new Staff {
c'1\sustainBothOn
c'1\sustainOff
}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
which would then work equally fine in Staff and Dynamics contexts.
However, I get ‘warning: SustainPedal has empty extent and non-empty
stencil’ and \sustainBothOn isn’t printed, which I don’t know why. Anyone?
Best, Simon
