Hi Werner,
I don't understand, why the \hspace #0 influences the raise
As I understand it, the \hspace defines the height of the entire markup box -- i.e., it is explicitly taller than either the fermata or the (e.g.) "1." -- and thus it is this "larger" box (as set by the height of an \hspace object) that is affected by the spacing code.
You can also use this hint to line up custom dynamics with opposing descenders and ascenders, e.g.,
pp gorgeous % all descenders pp fantastic % all ascenders will not line up "correctly" by default. Hope this helps! Kieren. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
