I'm trying to make some easy to read exercises for the little kiddies I
teach. As you can see in the example below I've labelled which line is for
sticking and which is for counting - the only way I could figure out of
getting the markup before any notes was to add it to a spacer grace note (so
as to not affect duration) but as you can see this creates a huge gap.
Switching on strict-note-spacing solves the gap but then pushes the text
very far to the left, and all my attempts at tweaking x-offsets or
\translates haven't worked. Also ideally I'd like to vertically align the
"Sticking" text so it's centred relative to the two lyric lines.
Does anyone have a better idea for getting what I'm after? I'm feeling the
grace note markup is very hacky but I can't think of a better way!
# (set-global-staff-size 30) % yep, 30!
count = \lyricmode {
"1" "2" "3" "4"
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff ="staff" \with {\remove Time_signature_engraver} {
\new Voice ="one"
{
\clef percussion
% \override Score.SpacingSpanner #'strict-note-spacing = ##t
\override NoteHead #'extra-spacing-width = #'(3 . 3)
\grace {s64 ^\markup \right-align \italic {Count:} _\markup
\right-align \italic {Sticking:}}
d'4 d' d' d' d' d' d' d' }
}
\new Lyrics \with { alignAboveContext = "staff" } { \lyricsto "one"
{\count \count} }
\new Lyrics {\lyricsto "one" {R L R L R L R L }}
\new Lyrics {\lyricsto "one" { L R L R L R L R }}
>>
}
