Your question is also related to the discussion near the end of the "Merging scores in one pdf" thread which just moved to the French LilyPond user discuss list.
Where the discussion in the other thread was headed was that when we inexperienced users put a \markup outside of a score, we expect it to format the text relative to the entire page. We shouldn't have to use fill-line or hspace in order to get text to move to the center of the page. And vertical control of the position of a \markup is almost impossible unless there is a score after it.
I'm still working on the vertical positioning, but I already made it clear that in an independent \markup the text formatting *is* relative to the entire page, so you can't say it isn't. Besides, \fill-line, \wordwrap-string and \justify-string do exactly the same as would do some new \center, \align-left and \justify commands... Here is the snippet I added: http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=300 Thanks Rune, by the way, for your answer; Romel, if you need to fully right-align your text, you can use something such as: \markup \column { \fill-line { "" "segue to" } \fill-line { "" "something else" } } Regards, Valentin _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
