notes in the meter line of the header
Isn't this a misuse of the meter line in the heading? I thought that meter was used not to show the timing, but rather to show the number of syllables per line in hymn tunes, e.g. 8:8:8:8. I think the place to indicate the speed of the piece is with a metronome mark: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.2/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/Metronome-marks.html#Metronome%20marks This piece of documentation shows how to get a mark like quarter note = 105. Hope this helps. Carl Sorensen ___ lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Raising markups
I was waondering how you would raise markups when they are of the sort \mark \markup { \musicglyph #"scripts-segno"}. I tried experimenting with \raise # 2.0 and the realised this was only in relation to the other markup text. I tried to follow the padding commands but I didn't 'get it'. Any suggestions? Shelagh PS Before I sent this I did one further experiment. I \mark \markup {" " \raise #3.0 \musicglyph #"sript-coda"} And it worked. Maybe this will be useful for others. But I'd still like to know how to use the padding command for these items in a global override?

notes in the meter line of the header
Anyone know of a way to include a note in the "meter" line of the header? For example: \header { title = "Old MacDonald Had a Farm" meter = "** = 60" } only with ** replaced by a quarter note.

I'm just not quite sure why I had to do this. Most of the time it works fine without having to take those steps. Just occasionally it has to be done. -- http://www.danbowtell.co.uk/ ___ lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

I have included in the 2.3 release a font-postscript.ly which shows how to do this.
