Moving horizontally a \markup block that's outside score

Hi, I was wondering if it's possible to move around a \markup block that's outside the \score block. Inside the music section you can do wonders with \override TextScript #'whatever but I couldn't come up with a solution for this situation. I've attached an example below. I'm asking this is

Re: Vertical Collision

Hi Jeffrey, 2008/6/22 Jeffrey Vos: I'm pretty new at using LilyPond, but I'm trying to engrave some of my marching band music using it. I have a tuplet with a marcato marking underneath, and I cannot figure out how to keep the marcato marking from colliding with the tuplet. I've included a

Re: minimumVerticalExtent minimum-Y-extent

2008/4/8 Mats Bengtsson : \layout { \context { \Lyrics \override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(0 . 0) } } was 'working'. Yes, but as you have seen, it redefines all Lyric contexts in the score. Now, how do I keep the 'above default spacing' for the first verse?

Re: minimumVerticalExtent minimum-Y-extent

2008/6/13 Trevor Daniels: The \addlyrics construct does have its limitations due to relying on the implicit creation of the various contexts, and this seems to be one of them, although I would regard this as a bug. If you specify the contexts explicitly you can use the \with construct,

Re: minimumVerticalExtent minimum-Y-extent

2008/6/13 Mats Bengtsson : \lyricmode has nothing to do with it. It just tells the part of Lilypond that interprets your .ly file, that anything within the \lyricmode{...} should be treated syntactically as lyrics and note as note names. What you probably mean is that happens with \lyricsto.

Re: no midi file in the new lilypond for Windows

Dear Annette, 2008/6/10 ANNETTE GIESBRECHT : The last time I used LilyPond, I got ps files that were to open in my media player, but since I have windows I cannot use them. I cannot see the midi files. the one that I downloaded was 2.11.48-1. So even though I can see the sheet music, I

Re: Font difference between 2.11.23 and GDP

2008/6/6 Palmer, Ralph: Greetings - I'm running LilyPond 2.11.23 under Windows XP SP2. I've been working on Repeats in the GDP. To demonstrate the behavior of manually setting repeat signs and brackets, I borrowed from LSR snippet 316, modified it, and included it in Repeats. I tested my

Re: Dynamics and kerning

2008/5/13 Kim Bastin : I find the kerning of dynamics unsatisfactory, indeed I'm not sure that it's happening at all. ff is spaced too wide, with visible daylight between the f's; mp is squashed too close together. These pairs are the worst; pp, sf, fz look okay. Have you tried sp? I think

Re: Lyrics and slurs and articulation

2008/5/8 Jean-Alexis Montignies : On the three first notes of the theme are to be played legato, but with a sylable on each note. I tried a phrasing slur, but then it collides with an articulation (I'm using 2.11.33). You could use \set ignoreMelismata = ##t. To switch it off, use \unset

Re: Lyrics, barlines and whiteout

2008/5/8 James E. Bailey: in 2.11, the text is typeset between the bars. That is, the text fits between the bars, and there's no need to white out part of the bar line to accommodate the text. That's right. However, the lyric hyphens sometimes do collide with bar lines. Is there a way to

Re: custom metronome-markup procedure causes weird goops-error

2008/4/29 Nicolas Sceaux : I think it's because there is no \concat markup command in 2.10. Untested: Looks nice. :-) It seems to work with .11 .10. In fact, the results look better this way than with \concat. The space between the left parenthesis and the note head is better matched with

Dear Sven, 2008/4/27 Sven Axelsson : Could someone please tell me what the current way of moving the volta brackets down, possibly overlapping the music, would be? I've been wondering that, too, but I've found no magic bullet so far. Sometimes I have used extra-offset to lower the
