I stand corrected, then.
Still, it might be helpful to link to this page from some other places, say,
"Tweaking methods."
For instance,
~~~
The general syntax of this command is:
\override Context.LayoutObject #'layout-property =
#value
This will set the property with the name layout-property of the layout object
with the name LayoutObject, which is a member of the Context context, to the
value value. [add: The value must be given using the right syntax for the
property's expected datatype. Consult section 4.2.3, "Types of properties"
{with link} for details.]
~~~
I haven't had so much free time lately to do it in the SuperCollider
documentation, but I've added more than a few "See" references like this. I
think it helps.
