I am stumped. Stable version 2.12.3 *does* print the instrument name in front of the first staff with the bracket. The development version tries to line up the instrument names better, in the presence of brackets, so maybe getting fancy with those brackets confuses the new code. At some point, when we want something beyond Lilypond's capability, and arguably beyond her job description, I think we are better off to just place things by hand. \once\override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(-15 . -4) g'2^"Or" _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
