I've now had a chance to experiment further with this, and to try the
suggestions you have made, which were very helpful.
For Dynamic-Text objects, the self-alignment-X = #-1 appears to align
the left edge of the dynamic with the left edge of the note;
self-alignment-X = #1 aligns the right edge
Greetings David,
generally I prefer the left edge of dynamics to be related to the note
position. But I should like it to be a little further to the left than
the value of -1 gives. That is a bit of a problem, because the value
required for a dynamic such as 'f' will be different from that
Greetings David,
Following the problem I was having with dynamics in a flute part and a
piano part not lining up, on the advice of the list I upgraded my
LilyPond from v2.14.2 to 2.18.0.
Problem of non-alignment solved.
But I still find that dynamics often contact or even cross a bar-line.
Thanks for your reply - it solves the problem of bar-line/dynamic
collisions (or rather, it side-steps the problem). Actually it also
begins to answer what might well have been my next question, because
generally I prefer the left edge of dynamics to be related to the note
position. But I should
