Hi, im just trying to notate this particular bar as an exercise and have
no idea where to begin. I need the note to be in the centre of the bar,
as well as having the dynamics as written.

Hi Nick,
Centering notes was very common in past traditions, and indeed in various
modernist traditions. Lilypond does not do it out of the box. I think it must
be one of my personal top ten most wanted features. So, for people working
outside the Common Practice Era, you need to use some
Hi Nick,
A snippet to show how to use the centering function.
\version 2.19.20
% substitute your library directory
\include /home/a/lib/lilypond/centre.ly
\paper {
ragged-right = ##f
}
treble = \relative c'' {
\clef treble
\time 4/4
\centerNoteColumnOn
b1
\centerNoteColumnOff
Hi Nick,
Hi Andrew,
I'm afraid that 'center-note-column' will not help since the score includes
a dynamic spanner.
Personally, I'd do something less sophisticated.
How about:
\version 2.18.2
myDynamics =
{
\set crescendoText = \markup\dynamic f
\set crescendoSpanner = #'text
\override
Hi Nick,
for the dynamics you could simply do something like this (is not
considered in midi output, though):
{
a1_\markup { \halign #-0.3 \line { \dynamic f — \dynamic f } }
}
Cheers,
Joram
