I assume that you are referring to discussions on my behalf. I'll look ASAP what the resulting code base looks like, and maybe there's sonething in it for general harvesting. I agree that this should absolutely go not into openLilyLib but into LilyPond. This is a core unctionality, IMO. However, I recall that someone (I think David Nalesnik) contiued somewhat after I closed my project, I think resulting in an engraver or spanner (I think I ended up with spmething like a stencil override), Urs PS in my collected function is also code to center arbitrary markup (e.g. clefs or time signatures within measures. >Andrew -- Diese Nachricht wurde von meinem Android-Gerät mit K-9 Mail gesendet.
