Score.RehearsalMark.self-alignment-X = #LEFT) I have a whole page of music
and the tunes are in different keys, so aligning to the Key signature is
giving me an unsightly wiggly vertical look. Can I align to the clef or the
Time signature?

Hello,

See Timothy's answer (left-edge and link to IR).

\override Score.RehearsalMark.break-align-symbols = #'(clef)
\override Score.RehearsalMark.break-align-symbols = #'(time-signature)

You could also change the break-align-anchor-alignment of KeySignature (NR
same reference).

I would use "piece", but actually you could even define your own custom
header field and custom layout for titles.

Kind regards,
