Ok, so this is _after_ 2.17.14 commit 692b4e4ed7c1aae4d4d53ad59c26c22f2dd2d90f Author: David Kastrup <[email protected]> Date: Sun Mar 3 01:04:31 2013 +0100 Issue 3187: Ugly alignment of text and score within a markup For \score within \markup, the reference point (usually the middle staff line) of the lowest staff in the top system is placed on the baseline. This is an incompatible change, but the previous behavior (placing the _highest_ y coordinate of the score on the baseline, disregarding the staves) was not useful. Let's see. You don't actually _want_ any unnatural alignment, so remove your \general-align again and add \override Staff.InstrumentName.self-alignment-Y = ##f to the instrument specification (the default is centering, clearly inappropriate for your use). There is also a ready-made \incipit command: annoyingly I haven't been able to make it generate an incipit at all given your example. No idea why. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
