Here's an alternative solution that puts the marks in their own dynamic context, keeping them vertically aligned:
\version "2.18.2" << \new Dynamics \with { \consists Mark_engraver } { \mark \markup \rounded-box "x" s1 \mark \markup \rounded-box "x" s1 \mark \markup \rounded-box "x" s1 \mark \markup \rounded-box "x" s1 } \new Staff \relative c'' { c1 g'1 a,1 c''1 } >> \layout { \context { \Score \remove Mark_engraver } } Best, Edward -------------- Dr. Edward Neeman Adjunct Instructor, South Georgia State College Collaborative Pianist, Valdosta State University, Georgia Artist Faculty, ELMS Conservatory, Jakarta edward.nee...@gmail.com www.neemanpianoduo.com On Mon, Dec 4, 2017 at 9:21 AM, Edward Neeman <edward.nee...@gmail.com> wrote: > I'm guessing that staff-padding doesn't work because the Mark_engraver > is part of the Score context, not the Staff context.
