Hi Pierre, the balloon spanner is attached to the center of the balloon text markup only if it does not cover a Y distance, f. ex. \balloonText #'(6 . 0)
The only idea I have is to tweak the markup dimensions by \with-dimensions #'(0 . 0) #'(0 . 0) or \with-dimensions #'(0 . 0) #'(0 . 1) Anyway, a big drawback is that the markup text will not be considered for spacing calculations. % ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \version "2.18.2" \new Staff { << \new Voice = "Up" \relative e'' { \voiceOne e8 fis g e fis4. e8 | *2 } \new Voice = "Down" \with { \consists "Balloon_engraver" } \relative c { \voiceTwo \override BalloonTextItem.annotation-balloon = ##f <e-\balloonText #'(6 . 0) \markup \override #'(baseline-skip . 1.3) \center-column { \fontsize #-4 \circle\number "6" \vspace #.07 \musicglyph #"pedal.*" \concat { \fontsize #-3 "(" \hspace #.3 \raise #0.3 \finger "p" \fontsize #-3 ")" } } g'b>2 <d'-\balloonText #'(8 . -1) \markup \override #'(baseline-skip . 1.3) \with-dimensions #'(0 . 0) #'(0 . 0) \center-column { \musicglyph #"pedal.*" \concat { \fontsize #-3 "(" \hspace #.3 \raise #0.3 \finger "p" \fontsize #-3 ")" } } a' d> } >> } % ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Cheers, Klaus -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Change-the-Y-offset-of-a-ballon-markup-tp173834p173842.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
