Well, it is again an issue of "incest tabu" where the details of the combining skylines make best sense for combining _heterogenous_ elements: for arranging text with text, you don't want to have things get too closely or even interleaved. But having a single high letter "interlock" with a note stem can improve the overall arrangement. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
