Hello List,

why is it not possible to horizontal align markups attached to a
MultiMeasureRest in the positive direction (i.e. left)?

I expected this code to work, but the \halign seems to be ignored (#-5
would work):


\version "2.17.29"

\new Staff <<
    {
      R1^\markup { \null \halign #5 "text" }
    }
>>


I used the following workaround:


\version "2.17.29"

\new Staff <<
    {
      R1
    }
    \new Voice
    {
      s1^\markup { "text" }
    }
>>


With that I didn’t even need any kind of alignment in my special case, but
all alignments would work with this.
It keeps me wondering, though, why it does not work on a MultiMeasureRest.
Is that intentional?
