:D This enhancement would be very welcome (to my point of view). This is the most annoying "lack of feature" I'm experiencing in my everyday-use of LilyPond. ;) > Correct. > > However, that still doesn't mean we should overload the RehearsalMark to do > tempo indications. [I used to do this, so I'm not being "holier than thou"…] I'm already "overloading" the RehearsalMark for "SegnoMark", "CodaMark", "Da Capo Mark", "Tutti", ... I'm waiting for the GLISS to suggest "RehearsalMark-variants" to handle these different "usages". And thus provide a solution to my "simultaneous marks" problem. :) > We should: > 1. Use MetronomeMark, which can be #'X-offset tweaked to line up correctly. Yeah, but I think it's simpler to say "OK, take this as a RehearsalMark and align it correctly on the time signature" (especially when there is no other RehearsalMark at the same time, which is the most often case) ; than tweaking the #'X-offset to *try* to line up correctly, "groping" the value, with the risk that this won't be still correct if you change, for example, the global staff size. I mean, both are tweaks, workaround. The one I proposed seems easier to me. It's maybe not elegant, not good as a dev point of view, ... but with this I manage to have it printed the way I want, my "right way", without too much difficulties. Of course the best for me too would be this enhancement feature to be added. ;) > 2. Keep pushing/begging for someone to add the feature you pointed out. That's what I'm trying to do *discretely* (diplomatically) when replying to such thread. :p > Now that I'm back from my conference, I'm hoping to get up and running with > lily-dev fairly quickly. [Famous last words?] > If I do, this is one of the first things on my to-do list. =) Great news (again). Thank you and good luck so, Kieren!
