Still looks like > a bug though. Yes, I would say it's definitely a bug. This is a bit of misuse of self-alignment-X, but the same happens with this line: \once \override DynamicText.self-alignment-X = #5 So, possibly it's a problem with the Dynamics context? Another example bites the dust. > > Yeah, sorry. It's not hard to come up with vivid demonstrations; the difficult part of course is to find the real-world example where just that command is what you need! (It can be used to create the same effects as \shape, but then...there's \shape for that.) Offsetting arpeggio.positions is nice, I think. (Though not precise; there is quantization which unavoidably kicks in, I think. It's still nice for arpeggios across tiny intervals, where you don't want to figure out staff positions yourself.) --David
