Is it possible in LilyPond to define a command with 2 arguments that will simply print some text (arg1) a certain distance (arg2) above the staff?
It would prototyped like this: myText arg1(string) arg2(number) And used like this: a b c^myText #"hello world" #2.0 d e f I'm beating a dead horse trying to use define-music-function to no end with the 2.8.5 manual. Such a command would save me much time in constantly having to enter: \once \override TextScript #'padding = #2.0 (or whatever) followed by \markup I cant be the first person to need such a function. Thanks for any help. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/defining-a-text-command--tf2173319.html#a6009254 Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User forum at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
