I don't know. This is definitely a strange example. The \mark command is meant to insert something over a barline, so maybe it'd be best to delete this example altogether and reword things a bit so that the example with "colla parte" is the only one illustrating this feature.
Agreed! It's very rare to insert textual indications between the notes within a measure (where, on the other hand, it's not uncommon to attach textual indications to a specific note, i.e. using a text script). You might want to replace "colla parte" with "Coda", but again it's very hard to illustrate the usefulness of using \mark for textual indications if you're not allowed to change the alignment to #LEFT or #RIGHT. I'm not convinced that it's less confusing to avoid the use of \override and instead provide more or less irrelevant examples of useful features. /Mats _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
