hi, try the fill-line command instead of right-align: \header { title = "Old dance" subtitle = \markup \tiny \italic { \fill-line { "From \"Jane Pickerings lute book\" " "" } } } you just have to add an empty string which will be on the left edge of the page. regards, Tao Original-N

I am not sure if I got your question correct but I think chapter 7.1.2 "Manual staff switches" is what you're looking for. If you want to have a kneed beam you have to specify the stem-direction for each note. regards, Tao Original-Nachricht Datum: 13 Jul 2007 17:04:50 -0700
