Hi Simon, > here you are with an elaboration: <http://lilybin.com/f2e2fx/1>
Thanks. It's good to know what the "solution" is, in this MWE context. It might even be feasible — albeit frustratingly verbose — in a simple situation (e.g., piano with centred dynamics). That being said, I was (am still?) hoping for a more robust and extensible solution: in the real-world situations I'm looking at, this method/mechanism either won't work at all, or at the very least would seem to be a coding, reusability, and maintenance nightmare. > BTW, your snippet would have been more compilable without the typographical > quotes Sorry! =( > (it seems your mail client inserts them - can you send as plain text?) My emails *are* plain text! =) Unfortunately, it looks like my last Mac OS upgrade turned on a [system-wide] preference to auto-substitute "smart quotes". I've now turned that off. Sorry for the inconvenience.
