Thanks Robin, I think it should probably be centre-column (as in make-centre-column-markup) and it’s just a doc mistake. Good to know this can also be used for custom markup. Thanks Alex > On 9 Nov 2024, at 22:46, Robin Bannister wrote: > > Alex Harker wrote: > >> I’m read the below from

I've been searching for a solution to this for a while, and can't find an answer. I usually use durations in my lyrics so that I can easily modify timing of the music versus the lyrics. I want to underline individual words and phrases, using 'skip' where appropriate. I managed to underli

Hope this is a quick one -- I have a glissando from a 16th note to a dotted eighth (happens a few times in the piece). The horizontal spacing between these two notes is so tight that the glissando symbol becomes just a dot. I had already specified a minimum-length for hairpins, and hoped that
