Hi Ben,
> I don't quite follow what you're asking.
I know what he’s asking about… It’s something I’ve been asking about for quite
a long time (>5 years): forcing a *measure* or even *group of measures* (in
OP's case, a single measure) to stretch to accommodate another grob (in OP’s
case, a TextScript), rather than the current behaviour ("stretch the current
moment"). The problem is particularly acute in parts with lots of tempo
markings over multi-measure rests, which don’t tend to stretch accordingly.

It would be nice to be able to arbitrarily set the duration of the moment that
would (if necessary) be stretched.
Cheers,
Kieren.
