Re: Super and sub

Hi, from the replies, I conclude: - The changes to super and sub script positions are considered an improvement - There might be yet unknown cases where something more sophisticated is needed for a perfect look - Superscripts in chords are very inconsistent, for instance \chords

Dear Robert, in a text environment, Davids solution is probably better. But if you want to use the full bass figure syntax, you can also insert scores into markup like this: \paper { indent = 0 } \layout { \override FiguredBass.BassFigure.font-size = -1 } \markup \line { would be a

Super and sub

Dear all, in a recent question on this list [1] about \super in markup text, all three replies suggested to tweak the vertical position of superscripts by hand because the default is obviously too high. I compared the Lilypond result of \super and \sub to the equivalents in LaTeX (because who

Joram, As you say, LaTeX is for producing beautiful mathematics and LilyPond is for producing beautiful music. It’s possible that the conventions in the two different kinds of typography differ in their placement of sub and superscripts, and so LaTeX and LilyPond should differ in their

Re: Super and sub

I was thinking that text produced by LilyPond would likely be about music, with references, for example, to chords with superscripts in their names. It would appear odd if the chord names in text appeared differently than in the music itself. John
