(continuing the thread on ly-user) Hello Guy, no, there isn't, because it tends to contradict the logic: they won't appear to be simultaneous, if they are placed one after another. You might try the methods described in <http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/learning/outside_002dstaff-objects> <http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/learning/outside_002dstaff-objects%3E>. For the dynamics, this can be complicated, but try: \override DynamicText.X-offset or \override DynamicLineSpanner.outside-staff-priority = ##f (to be placed in \layout) and \override DynamicText.Y-offset and similar.

It appears to be the non-musical elements that are interfering with things. I still had to play with margins, etc. to get it to look "right." Thanks for your help. Is there an easy way to tell Lilypond not to stack vertically simultaneous directives like "a tempo" and dynamics, but to render them horizontally?
