I did try that command in looking at what was going on, and it made no difference - I think \textLengthOff is Off by default, in any case.
As I said in my reply, the way the text/notes are laid out appears to be a by-product of the command \override SpacingSpanner #'packed-spacing = ##t in the gregorian.ly file. I cured the problem for Michael by putting \override SpacingSpanner #'packed-spacing = ##f in the Global block. I guess the packed-spacing command shouldn't have this by-product? -- Phil Holmes ----- Original Message ----- From: Bertalan Fodor (LilyPondTool) To: Michael Dykes Cc: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, April 15, 2010 4:06 PM Subject: Re: markup ?

While I understand the basics, I am faltering on how to get the expressions exactly how I want them. E.g. I want the following phrase: ^\markup{\italic ''Blessed is the Kingdom ... ''} to be aligned above the 1st measure of music, but evenly space, not shifting the music or notes any at all. How, can I accomplish this? I think the \textLengthOff command does this. http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond-learning/Outside_002dstaff-objects Bert ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
