Maybe I'm missing something obvious (it's 1:30 in the morning...it's
not unlikely!), but I'm trying to include a small two-line markup
inside a single box. The thing that seems obvious is producing two
boxed lines, which is not what I'm aiming for and is too visually
cluttered for me to accept as a compromise:
\markup\right-column\box{
\line{Solos: 1st x tpt}
\line{2nd x clr}
}
Any ideas?
You want the box to be around the columns? So:
\markup \box \right-column {
\line{Solos: 1st x tpt}
\line{2nd x clr}
}
To add to this, markup commands that expect a single markup will work
with markup lists, however they will be applied to each individual
markup within the list:
%%%%
\displayScheme \markup \box { a b c }
\displayScheme \markup { \box a \box b \box c }
%%%%
The above code prints out the following, demonstrating that both are
equivalent internally:
====
(markup #:line (#:box "a" #:box "b" #:box "c"))
(markup #:line (#:box "a" #:box "b" #:box "c"))
====
To box "a b c" as a unit, you need to use any markup command that
operates specifically on a markup list to condense it into a single
markup:
%%%%
\markup \box \line { a b c } % for when you want space
\markup \box \concat { a b c } % for when you do not want space
\markup \box \overlay { a b c } % for when you REALLY do not want space
%%%%
