It's expected that this doesn't work, since you feed "\fromproperty
#'header:title" to markup->string, but you don't give the properties to
markup->string, so it doesn't know what value the "header:title" property.
Replacing `(markup->string arg)` with `(markup->string arg #:layout layout
#:props props)` should work. Better yet, use string transformers (since
2.23.12), which solve exactly this problem:
```
\version "2.24.1"
\markup uppercase =
\markup \with-string-transformer
#(lambda (layout props str) (string-upcase str))
\etc
\header {
title = "My Awesome Piece"
}
\paper {
scoreTitleMarkup = \markup \uppercase \fromproperty #'header:title
}
{ c1 }
```

Not offhand, but I'd start with make-small-caps in
define-markup-commands.scm and strip out the is-lower logic.

\uppercase function
Hi all!
Anyone have a good \uppercase function they could share?
I tried to make one, and it doesn’t throw an error, but also doesn’t work:
\version "2.25.2"
#(define-markup-command (uppercase layout props arg) (markup?)
(interpret-markup layout props (string-upcase (markup->string arg
\header {
title = "My Awesome Piece"
}
\paper {
scoreTitleMarkup = \markup \uppercase \fromproperty #'header:title
}
{ c1 }
Thanks,
Kieren.

Re: \uppercase function
Hi David,
you could just as easily write the following:
\header {
myTitle = #myOtherTitle
title = \markup {
from \italic #(string-upcase myTitle)
}
}
Yes, but at that point, why not just write
\header {
title = “MY OTHER TITLE
}
?? ;)
Here’s the concrete use-case:
1. I have musical theatre pieces with (naturally enough) title case titles,
such as “My Lucky Day”.
2. When they’re included in the Piano/Conductor score (or other score from the
regular performance materials), the title should remain in title case.
3. When they’re included in a songbook, I’m trying to show the title in the the
expected format, which is all-caps (cf. modern Warner-Chappell imprints), e.g.,
“MY LUCKY DAY”.
4. I want to accomplish this entirely in the stylesheets, and not have to have
two different ways of inputting the title in the code/content.
It seems odd to me that it’s so convoluted a process — and apparently so
different, depending on whether it’s a string or a property. =\

Yes! That was it. Thanks for the link.
Note that the following will work with your simple example, though
\uppercase has to be directly before the markup:
#(define-markup-command (uppercase layout props markup-argument)
(markup?)
(interpret-markup layout props
(string-upcase (markup-string markup-argument
My issue is the same as in that 2009 post:
\uppercase \fromproperty #’header:title
fails. Any thoughts on how to fix that?
Nicholas's \simple function requires a string, and mine requires that we be
able to get at the string within a markup argument. Ordinarily, getting
the string wouldn't be a problem. Not so with the markup returned by the
fromproperty command: the function markup-string won't work here.
Nevertheless, we can easily get the title string by referring to the
variable myTitle:
\version 2.19
#(define-markup-command (uppercase paper props markup-argument)
(markup?)
Make the markup uppercase.
Syntax: \\uppercase \string\
(interpret-markup paper (prepend-alist-chain 'case 'up props)
markup-argument))
#(define-markup-command (simple paper props str) (string?)
Depending on the `case' property, may change the case
of the string before interpreting it.
(let ((text-case (chain-assoc-get 'case props 'normal)))
(interpret-markup paper props
(case text-case
((up) (string-upcase str))
((down) (string-downcase str))
;; TODO: small caps, capitalized text, etc
(else str)
\header {
myTitle = myTitle
title = \markup {
from \uppercase \simple #myTitle
}
}
\markup {
\null
}
%%%
Though you could just as easily write the following:
\header {
myTitle = #myOtherTitle
title = \markup {
from \italic #(string-upcase myTitle)
}
}
\markup {
\null
}
%%%

To make the title uppercase we have to work with it as a string. I can't
extract the string from the \markup \fromproperty #'header:title statement,
presumably because header:title hasn't even been defined yet:
\header {
title = myTitle
title = \markup \fromproperty #'header:title
#(format #t ~%is header:title defined? ~a~%~% (defined? 'header:title))
}
\markup {
\null
}
