I don't think so: when I change the initial s into e.g. s2, the mf is still placed at the beginning, but the subsequent stuff is moved to the right. If things worked the way you say, this would imply that the automatic propagation of durations has a scope larger than the staff. I can't imagine that the developers would implement such a design flaw. In fact, I didn't find a way to move the mf further to the right. > You should note that the full template is a fairly ugly hack.

However, it seems to me that the other problem I had, namely the ill-positioned text-version crescendo is not solved by that either. Is there a solution to that or is it a bug? Sorry if these questions are quite basic, but I am still new to lilypond and with little time, I make only slow progress. Thomas --
