I am having trouble controlling the stacking order of articulations and text. Sometimes in musical scores two ornaments are placed one above the other and I can't find documentation to say how the vertical order of the ornaments can be controlled. Sometimes I create ornaments using markup via \epsfile, and again I would like to be able to control the order of these amongst ordinary ornaments.
Here is an example ("Text" here stands in for some \epsfile ornament) \version "2.18.2" { %\once \override TextScript.outside-staff-priority = #450 %\once \override Script.outside-staff-priority = #450 c'' ^Text ^\turn ^\prall } In the comments are two possible controlling statements - the TextScript one is documented as setting the priority of the Text, the other I have made up based on the documentation for articulations such as \turn, however, it seems these are different beasts in some way and the construct may simply be wrong. #450 is the default priority of TextScript, but articulations don't appear in the table at http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/learning/outside_002dstaff-objects because presumably they aren't "outside-staff-objects" To add to my confusion, at http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/expressive-marks-attached-to-notes#articulations-and-ornamentations I find the following suggestion for modifying the order of text scripts: \once \override TextScript.script-priority = #-100 The bottom line is - I would like a general way of controlling the position of ^Text ^\turn ^\prall in the above example. Anyone able to help? Richard Shann _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
