Hi Phil,
I checked and found that I create the "rall" marking as a \markup, as
suggested in the documentation.
Where is this suggestion?
In older versions of lilypond, text-only tempo indications were not possible,
thus the advise to use \markup. However, since version 2.12 one can also add
text to \tempo marks, so now one should always use \tempo instead.
In many cases, \tempo "rall." and \tempo "a tempo" will suffice. However, if
you want to change the appearance of the text, you'll have to use an explicit
\tempo \markup { ..... "rall." }
The main reason I don't always use \tempo is that I often must use \mark
to avoid the behavior one gets when the tempo mark falls over a
multi-measure rest and gets centered there. (I also don't often need
MIDI output).
I have brought this up before without getting an acceptable answer. If
anyone has an acceptable solution for this I would appreciate hearing
about it.
TIA,
Paul Scott
