Lilypond has as standard setting that the instrument is put centered
below the title, subtitle, etc.
But I'm used to the first page having the intrument set at the left
side of the page (where Poet is placed) and only for subsequent pages
the instrument is set top center.
In fact, I've been looking at my scores and all have this setup.
So does pretty much all the music I use ... indeed I think about the
only music I use that has the instrument centred is that produced by
lilypond...
Can this be done in lilypond? Having the instrument on the left side of
the page on the first page only?
You need to rewrite the code that produces the header. I keep on
intending to do it, but alas the problem is always finding time ...
The problem is that most of the people who actually do the work with
lilypond, while they want it to be "the best tool for producing printed
music", they're European orchestral musicians steeped in the European
orchestral tradition, and their traditions are at odds with yours and
mine.
Until we step up and do some coding (or pay for others to do it for us),
lilypond won't address our needs that well. Note I'm not complaining -
that's just the way Free Software works ...
