)I already assumed that it works that way. But what do I have to insert for
)“TextSpanner”,
\override TextSpanner #'(font-name) = "Baskerville" for example. You can
put this in your score construct so
--snip---
\version "2.13.51"
MyMusic = \relative c' { a\startTextSpanner b c d | a b c d | a b c
d\stopTextSpanner }
\score {
\new Staff {
\override TextSpanner #'(font-size) = #-2
\override TextSpanner #'(font-name) = "Baskerville"
\relative c'' {
\MyMusic
}
}
}
--snip--
You can also put the override at the start of the music itself in a simple file
--snip--
\version "2.13.51"
\relative c' {
\override TextSpanner #'(font-size) = #-2
\override TextSpanner #'(font-name) = "Baskerville"
a\starTextSpanner b c d | a b c d | a b c d\stoptextSpanner
}
---snip---
)if I want to change the font for chord markups? …
I'm guessing (because I don't use chords) by looking in the internals that if
you look for 'font-name' you get a hit in the section 'font-interface'.
Then if you look in 'Internal properties' lower down you can see all the 'grob
interfaces' that use this and I can see, for example 'ChordName' so you could
try
\override ChordName #'(font-name) = "Baskerville" or whatever font you want.
)or for
)the lyrics or the header?
Well I showed you how to change the fonts already for the header just use the
construct like
\header {
title = \markup { \override #'(font-name . "Optima") " This is my Header" }
}
)
)For example “Score.ChordNames” doesn’t exist or at least doesn’t bear
)the font properties for the chord markup.

)I read that before. I don’t want to change the generic aliases, but I want
)to choose them for objects where I don’t know how to do it.
You also need to take some time and look in the Learning Manual, specifically
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/learning/the-internals-reference-manual
This is a very good introduction and one I learnt from on how to find this kind
of information.
