Hi Giles,
The \mark command is centred. Can text be formatted to be left
aligned (and smaller)? Is there an initialisation parameter I can
change to set its default alignment?
I can’t test what v2.18 does (that’s a very old version!), but 2.25.11
essentially** left-aligns the mark:
%%% SNIPPET BEGINS
\version "2.25.11"
\layout {
\context {
\Score
\override RehearsalMark.font-size = #1
\override RehearsalMark.padding = #2.5
}
}
In addition to Kieren's comments, you can set the object that the
rehearsal mark aligns to. For example, to align to the left edge of the
system:
\override RehearsalMark.break-align-symbols = #'(left-edge)
The list of objects (or break-align symbols) you can align against is
