Hi all, Here’s another solution, which keeps “dim.” as a DynamicText, and avoids multiple voices:
dynDim = #(make-dynamic-script (markup #:line (#:normal-text #:italic "dim." ))) theMusic = { f''1*1/2( s-\tweak extra-offset #'(1.25 . -2.5) ^\dynDim ges''4)\! } \score { << \new Staff \theMusic \new Staff { 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 4 } >> } [n.b. The one drawback is that MIDI playback will be negatively affected by the scaled duration.] Hope this helps!
