It seems a common use of the breath mark to create other markup within the
stave: for example the finalis in Gregorian music. I have been using it
to place a 3 before rests in Mensural music, to signify triple time.
However, I now have a rest of this sort that comes at the start of a
piece, and it would appear that LilyPond does not allow a breath mark to
start a piece. In the example:
\relative c'' {
\override BreathingSign.text = \markup { 3 }
\override BreathingSign.Y-offset = #-1
\breathe r \breathe r \breathe r
}
we only get two threes: the initial one is missing. Is there a better way
of providing the 3 mark, or an override I'm missing?
Thanks.
