How can I make a markup-text with a concatanation of italic text and the \sustainOn symbol?

Dear all, I am presently re-engraving a number of almost forgotten piano pieces. One of them has under the first bar of the LH staff the text: "sempre 2 Ped", Ped being the usual standard notation as generated by \sustainOn. Although the LilyPond documentation tells me somewhere that "Pedal indi

Hello Simon, Thanks for your advice. In its simple form, i.e. by adding: _\markup { \italic {sempre 2} \musicglyph #"pedal.Ped" } , it works perfectly. The other method, as in the ME you gave, it did not work. But I got exactly what I needed. Thanks again. Best regards, Robert On 22 Jan 2017,

I want to make a Scheme macro \BlankStaff that outputs a single white staff. (Optionnally, \BlankStaff #3 would output three of them, etc. In particular, using “\include "blank-staff.ly"” is a non-solution). A snippet does the white staff: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/snippets/staf

Hi Andrew (et al.), I would suggest X-offset is perhaps a good choice: { \mark \default \once \override Score.MetronomeMark.X-offset = #11 \tempo "A tempo" 8 = 104 s2^\markup { \musicglyph #"scripts.segno" } | s2*15 \bar "||” } Or perhaps even extra-spacing-width/height, etc. In any case
