organizing shared libraries
Hello I'm going through documentation, refamiliarizing myself with Lilypond, and trying to define a process for daily work that I like. One thing I'm pretty sure I'll want is to create a shared library that will live in its own repository. Perhaps more than one. Looking at [this documentation](https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.24/Documentation/notation/including-lilypond-files), what I think makes sense is to bundle the `*.ly` files into a guile module like `lib.scm`, using something like `ly:parse-init` to import `lib.ly` which would `\include` all the other `*.ly` files, sort of like the way it's done in `lily.scm` for `declarations-init.ly`. And then I would import the guile module that would bootstrap everything like `#(use-modules (special module))` in a particular project. Assuming the guile module makes it into the %load-path. There's probably a simpler way to do this and I'm just overthinking it. What do other people like doing for shared ly libraries? Thanks Tom
Re: Raising all metronome marks
Ah man! Forgetting the Score context in my override strikes again! The padding was my initial choice, but that wasn't working either. Thanks for the help, one of these days I'll remember to check that first when something isn't working how I think it should.

Re: Raising all metronome marks
Hello, Here is what I mostly use : \override Score.MetronomeMark.padding = #6 just before the tempo mark (works with lilypond 2.24.2) I have another example with a markup but it's much more complex (I can send it if you want) BR, --- Sébastien From: lilypond-user-bounces+richardsgjm=hotmail@gnu.org on behalf of Ben Bradshaw Sent: Wednesday, April 3, 2024 05:52 To: Lily Pond Subject: Raising all metronome marks Hello, I like my tempo markings to be a bit higher than the default in lilypond. I'm struggling to figure out how to globally raise them. I can do it locally with \offset Y-offset 3 for instance, of \tweak Y-offset #3, but I can't get it to work globally. I've tried \override MetronomeMark.Y-offset = #3 as well as \offset Y-offset 3 MetronomeMark , but neither seems to work. Any suggestions? Thanks, Ben
