Sorry I haven't been clear. Here is a concrete description/example of what I want, and what I would say "works": 1. Attached is a screenshot of a current score I'm engraving. 2. I've used \dynText to create the dynamic "mp intensely". 3. Since the layout is such that this falls at the very end of a system, it messes up the horizontal spacing. 4. Using the edition-engraver, I'd like to set self-alignment-X = #RIGHT (which would allow the note spacing to normalize) and then use either X-offset or extra-offset to nudge the dynamic back to the right (to approximate the "proper" alignment). If I can do that, the mechanism (i.e., function + post-hoc tweak) "works". > that is something you need to figure out before even starting to "poke > around". Although I clearly did not communicate my intention well enough, I knew *exactly* what I wanted before I started poking around.
