Hi russ, Maybe I misunderstood you there, but rehearsal marks should be put at the place where they are supposed to appear.
In your case: \relative c'' { \mark \markup "at start of measure" c2 \mark \markup "after 2 beats" c2 | \break \mark \markup "at start of next measure" c1 } Best, Robert ______ You don't get rich writing science fiction.
