Yes, well it seems simple in retrospect for me too! But, like Frank, I
tend to enter chords from bottom up. In a case like this, I expect that
the lyric alignment will be to the note which governs stem direction.
(This, after all, governs alignment between notes on different staves.)
Initially, (before what I'm sure I've seen documented elsewhere in some
context hit me), I was playing around with resetting the X-parent from one
note-head to another. This, for example, would set the X-parent (and thus
the alignment) to the last note between < > instead of the first:
#(define test
(lambda (grob)
(let ((note-heads (ly:grob-object (ly:grob-parent (ly:grob-parent grob
X) X) 'note-heads)))
(set! (ly:grob-parent grob X)
(ly:grob-array-ref note-heads (1- (ly:grob-array-length
note-heads)))))))
Call it with:
\override Lyrics . LyricText #'before-line-breaking = #test
I'm sure this could be modified to target the note that governs stem
direction.
