Alexander, I don't have time to look into this, but wanted you to be aware: I went ahead and used the BarNumberStaff rather than the BarNumberVoice. In trying to adjust the Y-Offset of the BarNumberVoice, it moves the lyrics down as well. The BarNumberStaff does not.
\new BarNumberVoice \with { \override MultiMeasureRestNumber #'Y-offset = #-7 \override MultiMeasureRestNumber #'font-size = #-2 } { \compressFullBarRests \global \TemplateMelody } Randy Alexander Kobel wrote: > > me - stanford wrote: >> 2) Also, do you think #'outside-staff-priority = #150 is a reasonable >> priority setting for the MMR Text?
