Vertical alignment of custom dynamics

Hi everyone! I have a repeated section of music with a different dynamic on each repeat. As such, I've used a markup object to create the text "mp - f" in the dynamic font. Because the music is piano music, my dynamics are in their own Dynamics context. My problem is that my custom dynamics don't

You'll probably get more responses if you create a Minimal Working Example (MWE). This is the smallest amount of code that will reproduce the problem. I often find that I stumble over a solution when I'm creating my MWE. --- Knute Snortum (via Gmail) On Thu, Aug 3, 2017 at 3:27 AM, Erik Natana
