One explanation is that
- concat wants to be given (markup-list?)
- general-align wants to be given (markup?)
So the two should be swapped:
#(markup #:general-align Y UP #:concat ("16" #:teeny "ma"))
This of course implies that your #{ #} version shouldn't work either.
But there is maybe some automagic at work here ?
- like the automatic application of \line when omitted before { }
Oh dear, that was half-baked thinking.
Markup lists have tripped me up yet again.
It is normal 'automagic' for
\box { "X" "Y" "Z"}
to be mapped into
{ \box "X" \box "Y" \box "Z" }
giving you 3 boxes in a markup list
to which \concat can be applied.
So that mapping mechanism will do the same for
\general-align Y UP
as it does for \box.
The non-mapping cases
\markup \box \concat { "X" "Y" "Z" }
and
#(markup #:box #:concat ("X" "Y" "Z"))
give one box without complaints
The mapping case
\markup \concat \box { "X" "Y" "Z" }
gives 3 boxes without complaint, but
#(markup #:concat #:box ("X" "Y" "Z"))
is errored.
Reformulating it as
#(markup (make-concat-markup (make-box-markup ("X" "Y" "Z"))))
is also errored.
And here I get stuck, just like the markup-list does.
Cheers,
Robin
