The usage of this new command relates to creating LP score templates, which include a tagline having two stacked lines of text inside a markup block. The tagline markup block needs to have dimensional stability, even when users of the template choose to alter the default global staff size. One can define fixed-fontsize markup for horizontal stability of text, but as of v2.18, the line-to-line vertical distance in markup blocks is scaled with staff size, and no apparent way to override this behavior from within the markup block itself. The proposal is to add a command for this purpose. Example: \markup{ \column{ \abs-vertical-spacing #20 %value: points, mm, cm \abs-fontsize #15 {"line1" "line2"} } } _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
