Mats, I know I'm not such a crack, I really looked around alot through the manual but did not find this solution. And when I came to these 'script interfaces', 'engravers' etc., I felt that I'd first need a tutorial with lessons on its own to learn working with these. I must admit that I hardly grasp the concept of 'contexts'. The 'property ... override ...' etc. things that I put in my .ly files until were only copies of snipplets that I found somewhere by accident. It was merely bluffing than knowing exactly what I'm doing, although once written down the structure looks logical to me. However, inventing myself how to use these options is one step too far without a syllabus about this way of programming, sorry.
