Re: self-alignment-X on DynamicTextSpanner?
Thanks, Jean and Valentin, for the replies. I’ll certainly be able to achieve the result that I want. However, I do think that DynamicTextSpanner should simply use properties bound-details.left.self-alignment-X and bound-details.left.parent-alignment-X for this, by default. attach-dir doesn’t seem very descriptive and it deviates from the way horizontal alignment is normally specified in LilyPond, and likewise being able to specify self-alignment-X would seem to be the normal thing to expect. I’ll submit such a request to the bug list. Best, Simon On 31/01/2022 11:51, Valentin Petzel wrote: Hello Simon, You need to use bound-details.left for these kind of things.

If you override a subproperty, since callbacks aren't supported for subproperties, you just override the calculation of this property from bound-details and logic, and there is nothing in it but the suboverride you have done. Then it's not surprising that everything starts going wrong. To answer the question: attach-dir is the equivalent of parent-alignment-X, controlling where on the note head (left, center, right, intermediate values) the reference point of the text goes. There is no direct equivalent for self-alignment-X, but you can do \version "2.22.1" { 1-\tweak self-alignment-X 1 \fff 1\tweak bound-details.left.text \markup \general-align #X #0 "cresc." \cresc 1 1 1 1\! } Best regards, Jean
