When I add a tempo marking to the harp part, it places it above the flute part, but when I add a regular markup to the harp part, the placement is not correct (too far right). Any ideas how to have tempo markings in both locations without manually adjusting the placement of each markup in the harp part?
Hello, Put a "Metronome_mark_engraver" in your Harp GrandSfaff and remove "Staff_collecting_engraver" from Score. You might want to do the same with "Mark_engraver". Actually this feature is documented for text marks in NR 1.8.1 Writing text > Text marks > Printing marks on every staff. http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.23/Documentation/notation/writing-text.html#text-marks You should update your LilyPond version (there used to be a bug when putting these engravers at "staff group" levels) and it's better to use the latest stable or unstable release. \layout { \context { \Score \remove "Staff_collecting_engraver" } } \score { << \new Staff \with { instrumentName = "Flute " } { << \Markings \Flute >> } \new Staff \with { instrumentName = "Viola" } { \Viola } \new GrandStaff \with { instrumentName = "Harp" \consists "Metronome_mark_engraver" % \consists "Mark_engraver" } << \new Staff { << \Treble \Markings >> } \new Staff { \Bass } >> >> } Cheers, Xavier -- Xavier Scheuer <x.sche...@gmail.com>
