thanks that looks exactly like it, but still no joy : melody = \relative c' { \clef treble \key c \major \time 4/4 { \melodyintro \mark \markup { \musicglyph #"scripts.segno" } \repeat volta 2 {\melodychorus \mark \markup "Fine" \bar "||"} \alternative {{\melodyvone} {\melodyvtwo}} \bar "|." \override Score.RehearsalMark #'self-alignment-X = #RIGHT \mark "D.S. Al Fine" % I am invisible ... } }
but that does seem to be the issue - add a dummy bar and all is well (except the unwanted empty bar) \bar "|." \override Score.RehearsalMark #'self-alignment-X = #RIGHT \mark "D.S. Al Fine" % now I'm good! {s1} } } On Sun, Oct 11, 200 9 at 5:22 PM, Neil Puttock <n.putt...@gmail.com> wrote: > 2009/10/11 Daniel McBrearty <danielmcbrea...@gmail.com>: > >> Must be a silly reason, I searched for a manual entry on \mark >> \markup ... but could not find? > > Did you check the index?
