Hi Harm and David, Thank you!
>> %% no need for second once, it's already in `hairpinWithCenteredText’ Yes… I’ve altered that now, so that hairpinWithCenteredText is a non-\once \override. (Now that we have \temporary, \single, etc., I think I will make sure that all such functions in my library are non-\once, and then add syntactic sugar as appropriate.) >> \after 2 \single \hairpinPoco \< g1 g\! > Which is more or less the point of having \single: being able to convert > an override into a tweak when nothing else will do. I clearly didn’t understand that, but this does exactly what I want it to — thank you. For archive readers: The page http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/learning/tweaking-methods does a pretty good job of explaining the purpose of \single (and other tweaking methods). For developers/users: Should that page include a description of [the effect of] \temporary, and/or a link to <http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/extending/intermediate-substitution-functions> (where there is such a description)?
