Re: Adding markup to percent repeat sign

That works very well and is easy. It appears to add a little space on
the sides but it's something I can live with. Thank you very much!

 Hello all,

 I'm writing a kind of minimalist piece that has a lot of repeated
 measures that I would like to notate using the percent repeat symbol
 with text above it like 8x or any other arbitrary text.

 The built-in functionality does not seem to allow for this unless I'm
 missing something. I found a snippet to generate a percent repeat
 sign:

 makePercent =
 #(define-music-function (parser location note) (ly:music?)
Make a percent repeat the same length as NOTE.
(make-music 'PercentEvent
'length (ly:music-length note)))

 But this does not allow me to add \markup to it like:

 \version 2.19.1
 \score {
 c e g c | \makePercent s1^\markup{8x}
 }

 The normal \repeat percent 8 {blah} approach does not work because it
 creates a lot of measures with the repeat sign and I just want the one
 measure.

 I've seen solutions for spanning a selection with a spanner like
 --3x-- but that's not what I want nor do I want to use voltas
 (and I believe I saw a solution for putting the 8x over the bar line
 which is not what I want either).

 I'm fairly certain I've seen this notation before in other scores.

 Anyone have any ideas?

 Thanks

 Hi,

 you can prepend your percent repeats with this:

 s1*0^\markup text

 I think this should give you the output you're looking for.
