Thank you for the really comprehensive answer! You solved a few other
problems I was struggling with in the process.
I don't get why this kind of diversity with overriding properties would
have any purpose for a user. I mean, I see there are different sizes of
notes between general score and tempo, but it's only that.
Cheers!

Hiya!
I'm trying to find a gentle solution for the problem I encountered.
I overrided flag stencil in general Score, but it turns out that this
doesn't influence notes in \tempo, \note and \rhythm functions. I
there a possibility to influence those ones?
I add that I know I could construct note from the beginning inside
markup and add hidden tempo change for proper tempo export, but it
seems to be overkill for this kind of problem.
That overrides in the main music do not influence \tempo,
\note or \rhythm is intentional. However, \rhythm has more
flexibility than \note because you can just put overrides
inside it, like
\version "2.24.0"
customFlag = {
\override Score.Flag.stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
\override Score.Flag.text = \markup {\raise #-0.2 \beam #1.0 #0.05
#0.5 }
}
\score {
\new Staff {
\overrideTimeSignatureSettings 4/4 1/8 #'() #'()
\time 4/4
\customFlag
\tempo \markup { Mechanical (\fontsize #-1 \rhythm { \customFlag 8
} \hspace #-0.6 = 92 )}
c'8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8
c'8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8
}
}
It's also possible to do that globally with
\version "2.24.0"
customFlag = {
\override Score.Flag.stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
\override Score.Flag.text = \markup {\raise #-0.2 \beam #1.0 #0.05
#0.5 }
}
\layout {
\context {
\Score
\customFlag
}
\context {
\StandaloneRhythmScore
\customFlag
}
}
\score {
\new Staff {
\overrideTimeSignatureSettings 4/4 1/8 #'() #'()
\time 4/4
\tempo \markup { Mechanical (\fontsize #-1 \rhythm { { 8 } }
\hspace #-0.6 = 92 )}
c'8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8
c'8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8
}
}
(Note the necessary extra braces in \rhythm { { 8 } }; this quirk has
already been solved, in the unstable version 2.25.0.)
Unfortunately, \tempo internally uses \note, which does not have the
same sort of customizability. You can use tags, though:
\version "2.24.0"
customFlag = {
\override Score.Flag.stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
\override Score.Flag.text = \markup {\raise #-0.2 \beam #1.0 #0.05
#0.5 }
}
\layout {
\context {
\Score
\customFlag
}
\context {
\StandaloneRhythmScore
\customFlag
}
}
\tagGroup midi,layout
mus =
\new Staff {
\overrideTimeSignatureSettings 4/4 1/8 #'() #'()
\time 4/4
\tag layout \tempo \markup { Mechanical (\fontsize #-1 \rhythm { { 8
} } \hspace #-0.6 = 92 )}
\tag midi \tempo 8 = 92
c'8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8
c'8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8
}
\score {
\keepWithTag layout \mus
\layout { }
}
\score {
\keepWithTag midi \mus
\midi { }
}
Best,
Jean
