Hi everyone,
I'm trying to add centred string numbers to some notes in my composition
using markup. Using only \center-align as the documentation suggests
does not seem to do the trick, as the text is still not centralised. I
am only able to get them properly centred when I set parent-alignment-X
to zero AND use \center-align. Am I doing something incorrect or do I
really need these two commands in order to get the text centred?
Minimal example: 4 bars, only last one seems to be properly centered
\version "2.23.0"
{
% regular markup: left aligned
d''1
^ \markup { III. }
% \center-aligned: still not centered
d''1
^ \markup { \center-align III. }
% setting parent-alignment-X to 0: still not centered
\once \override TextScript.parent-alignment-X = #0
d''1
^ \markup { III. }
% setting parent-alignment-X to 0 with \center-aligned: now it's
properly centered
\once \override TextScript.parent-alignment-X = #0
d''1
^ \markup { \center-align III. }
}
