Hi
I am still finding placing text a rather arcane art. I wish to place
the initial piece marking "Allegro" right at the beginning
of my 4-staff piece. The upper three staves are whole-bar rests
rests with notes in the last staff.
The syntax
R1^\markup{ \fontsize #2.5 { With passion } ( \raise # 0.5 { \note
#"2" #1.0 }=55) }
places the marking too far to the left and too low. So I have tried to move
it with
\once \override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'( 2.0 . 1.0 )
R1^\markup{ \fontsize #2.5 { With passion } ( \raise # 0.5 { \note
#"2" #1.0 }=55) }
but it has no effect. If I use 'r1' instead of 'R1' then it does have
effect. I found the
same with the
\mark \markup
construct; that it was not located correctly. So my conclusion is
that the use of the whole-bar rest is messing up my ability to move the text
around.
regards
Neil
