I'm currently typesetting some music for our school choir, SATB with a

notes* working at all.
MWE:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.18.2"
\markup { The \auto-footnote footnote "Here it is" works here. }
{c '^\markup { I want a \auto-footnote footnote "Does this work?" here } }
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
The annoying thing is that it is /almost/ working, as there is a gap
left for the footnote marker, but both it and the actual footnote are
just not there.
Reading the manual
(http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/creating-footnotes)
I can see that only musical expressions (which attached markup is
definitely not) and stand-alone text (again, attached markup isn't
that either).
My question: is there any way to place a footnote at the bottom of a
page from markup attached to a note? I've "made do" with using simple
markup to give the performance instructions, but I'd like to be able
to do this sort of thing in the future. Any guidance would be most
appreciated.
Hello,
Maybe these links could help you?

IIRC auto-footnote is really only used for markup outside of music
expressions etc.
Good luck....
