Hi Mike, Thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction!

There are some problems, though, and I'm not sure I'm approaching this in the way you've suggested. First of all, is going after the stencil rather than the left and right text (as I did originally) the tactic you had in mind for both approaches? The first snippet looks fine (both the dynamic and the articulation are encompassed), but the box won't expand to cover both the dynamic and the articulation in the second example. Also, the distance between the systems doesn't change. (Raising the last pitch a couple of octaves will cause an overlap.) > and then use axis-group-interface::pure-height and > axis-group-interface::height for the Y-extents (which will automatically > search the "elements" grob array. > > This is the part that is way beyond me. . . I'd be grateful if you could give me some pointers here, because I've hit a dead end as far as blind experimentation goes . . . Best, David
