Re: lowering an upper markup on the staff

[olicha]

Thanks, that override works the way I want.
Is there any way to put it in the variable itself so I won't have to repeat
it all along the tune?
I tried a lot of variation around
tic = \once \override TextScript.outside-staff-priority = ##f \once
\override TextScript.Y-offset = #-0.5  \markup { \beam #.5 #2 #.5 }
without finding the right syntax.

I repeat:

I am not really interested in puzzling fragments together into something
that may or may not correspond to what you are using yourself.

If you want somebody to fill in the blanks, don't hand him an empty
paper.

lowering an upper markup on the staff

[olicha]

In order to show where the separations between music cells are, I wrote:
tic = \markup { \beam #.5 #2 #.5 }
...
r16 c b^a a g e^\tic d^b f e8
which produces
http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/file/n158718/tic.png 

I'd like to get the tic lower, at least on the two upper lines of the staff.
The better would be half-stem, if its position could be referenced to the
note itself.

I tried
r16 c b^a a g \once \override TextScript.Y-offset = #-1 e^\tic d^b f e8

Surprisingly, nothing changes from #-1 to #-4, and suddenly, with #-5, the
tic falls down under the staff.

question one: what is the method to get that tic on the staff?
question two: what is the correct syntax for writing the override in the
definition of the variable (tic = ...)? It would make the tune more
readable.

Thanks

that may or may not correspond to what you are using yourself.  So
I have nothing to test the following against:

It's probably viable to do something like
\once \override TextScript.outside-staff-priority = ##f
in order to stop LilyPond from moving material outside of the staff.
