\offset can be applied to music expressions. And something like \offset \offset c' positions #'(2 . 3) Y-offset #'3 would be a lot less pleasant to read than \offset Y-offset #'3 \offset positions #'(2 . 3) c' For that reason, \tweak-like expressions generally take the music expression to be tweaked as their last argument. That makes nesting them reasonably clean. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
