I am trying to use \hspace to adjust the horizontal position of a text
markup. In addition I want the text to be colored and smaller. But the
\hspace directive somehow disables the others, as in this example.
\version "2.20.0"
lower =
\relative c {
\time 3/4
\clef bass
bes^\markup{\smaller \with-color #blue \hspace #-3 text} r4
bes^\markup{\smaller \with-color #blue text}
}
\score {
\new Staff = "lower" \lower
}
The second text has the right font and color, but the first one only has
the right horizontal position. --Jim
