For the benefit of search-engine-land, the way to do this is to use a separate dynamics context. Like this: dynA={ s4\p s4\< s2 s4\mf s2. } tune=\relative c' { c4 d e f g r2. } words = \lyricmode { some sil -- ly words yah } \score { << \new Staff \context Voice = tune \tune \new Dynamics \dynA \lyricsto tune \new Lyrics \words >> } The Dynamics context looks better above the words; if it's below with Lilypond 2.15.3 it sometimes collides with the next staff down (assuming multi-stave systems). -- Dr Peter Chubb http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au peterc AT gelato.unsw.edu.au http://www.ertos.nicta.com.au ERTOS within National ICT Australia _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
