Hi Keith,
Thanks for the 'override'. I achieved a satisfactory result by using
'hspace' to move a markup - the 'Or' didn't actually have to be in line
with the staff.
I am a rank amateur with regard to dealing with LP, and with music
setting generally, and am very grateful for the help available from all
the other users.
Your comment about LP's 'job-description' is interesting... I have read
the original 'Essay', and have pored over the various manuals, but I
haven't found any definitions of what LP regards as 'Engraving Best
Practice'. A case in point being where LP places simultaneous rests in a
staff with two voices. In the small number of scores I have in such a
situation the rests are vertically closer together if not actually
replaced with only one rest.
This is a bit off the original topic, but it would be interesting to
know the original rationale if you know of it! :)
Thanks again
Regards
Bill
