What compatibility are you needing?
I intended \highlightPitches to be a significant upgrade to my earlier
\highlightOutOfRange, which I would no longer recommend using.
Of course, it is not a drop-in replacement, as there were several
significant changes in its interface and usage:
% original %
\override NoteHead.color = \highlightOutOfRange c' c''
% new %
\highlightPitches outside { c' c'' }
Of note, the \override is now encapsulated within the new music
function; and when specifying multiple pitches, they must be enclosed in
curly braces.
Yet it is that second change in interface that ultimately permits what
you had requested:
% requested (though invalid) syntax %
instrumentRange = c' c''
\override NoteHead.color = \highlightOutOfRange \instrumentRange
% realized syntax %
instrumentRange = { c' c'' }
\highlightPitches outside \instrumentRange
Please let me know if I am overlooking a critical detail in your use
case where my newer function would not be fit for purpose.

Would something like this work?

Thanks a lot for your examples, now it's perfectly clear!
I post here some other examples inspired by your code. I did my best to
write the easiest as possible examples. I hope they will be useful to
others. The best would be to see them beside a screenshot of score
generated (I don't put the screenshot here because of the mailing list

Re: horizontal position of rehearsal marks at start of system
how can I control the default horizontal position of rehearsal marks at the beginning of a line? As can be seen in the attached image, the rehearsal mark gets shifted up because it would otherwise collide with the bar number. Consequently, I would like to have the default position shifted to the right to avoid that. Found it: The line \override Clef.break-align-anchor-alignment = #3 applied to *all* staves did the trick; see attached images. Thanks much!! That one bugged me for ages ... Lukas
Re: tie & tag
Dear Aaron, you wrote:

I tried to search "Element property" and I found this:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/extending/internal-music-representation
[...]
A compound music expression is a music object that contains other music
objects in its properties. A list of objects can be stored in the elements
property of a music object, or a single ‘child’ music object in the element
property. For example, SequentialMusic has its children in elements, and
GraceMusic has its single argument in element. The body of a repeat is
stored in the element property of RepeatedMusic, and the alternatives in
elements.
So if I understand correctly, the code:
\pushToTag #'here c' \tag #'here g'
doesn't work because g', that is a single note and not a compound music
expression does not have an element property. That's the reason why this
instead works:
\pushToTag #'here c' \tag #'here {g'}
Because {g'} is a compound music expression and it has an element property.
Could you please confirm?
Thank you, g.

While slightly more verbose, perhaps it’s more semantically correct to do
something like this?
\version "2.18.2"
\layout {
\context {
\Score
\override RehearsalMark.font-size = #-0.5
}
}
\relative c' {
\repeat volta 2 {
c4-\tweak extra-spacing-width #'(1 . 0.5) ^"vamp" r2
d8 e \tweak extra-spacing-width #'(-0.5 . 1) \tweak self-alignment-X #RIGHT
\mark \markup "(Last time only)" |
}
f g a4 r2 |
}
Just a thought.
Kieren.
