zero-duration s to hold marks

2024-01-09 Thread John Asmuth

Thanks for the reply. Here's a stand-alone file that demonstrates what I see. I'd like each arrow to be at the same vertical position. On Sat, Jun 24, 2023 at 2:24 PM Kieren MacMillan < kie...@kierenmacmillan.info> wrote: > Hi John, > > 1. Providing complete code that compiles will encourage
