obtaining longer ties

In treble clef, and for eighth notes, my f-f ties look great, but the g-g ties are too short. Lilypond seems to want to keep them in the space below g. How can I make the ties more like the f-f tie -- deeper, with the ends attached to the bottom of the notes? Thanks! __

I have the answer

Thanks for the responses, everyone. Thank you, Mats Bengtsson. You gave me what I needed. The "\break" was necessary. Now, with a little further tweaking I'll have it. Thanks again, Ron ___ lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL

Is there a nice way to add some text to the brackets ( instead of to the notes as markup) ? (like A1, A2 aso) Cheers, Ron ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

note size in marjup

Hi, I am trying to replace a \tempo, which is too big and apears on top of the first note, instead of more to the left, with a text markup. The note in the markup is too big: I tried to change its size with magnify which did not work :( Is there a workaround? Cheers, Ron
