Hello Folks, I’ve been struggling with this for some time, got help from this list, and finally came up with the following (probably partial) observation: \vspace is taken into account only in \column* blocks, and needs to have some space (" ") before and/or after it.
Hence this kind of things in complex situations where a mark, a name and a tempo indications are needed at the same time, see the attached file: \tempo \markup{ \column { " " \vspace #2 \line { \raise #-2.0 {\box\bold\fontsize #3 "I"} " " \column { "\"Death Of A Soldier\"" \concat { "Adagio " \concat { ( \smaller \general-align #Y #DOWN \note #"4" #1 " = " 76 ) } } } } } } Any hint to do better or simpler is welcome! JM
