I used to do this (many versions ago), but found that the dynamics never centered exactly (i.e., didn’t line up "when they were supposed to”), and the extra space never compressed effectively
Right. This just attaches dynamics to one staff or the other. I just find the result less-bad than having all dynamics on one horizontal line. The right- and left- staves within a PianoStaff don't stretch from each other very much to help fill the page, so setting their 'staff-padding' to each staff at about half the gap, puts the dynamics nearly in the center, most of the time, unless notes pry the staves apart. I guess you can put a Dynamics between the staves anyway, and use it for the occasional dynamic that really should be centered between staves. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
