I also think our solutions are different - the main question for me is why your drawing starts with a (moveto 0 1) which makes you unhappy later. vertically centering both objects is your decision - why not start the drawing at 0 0 and align the objects on the same line in the markup, as David suggests, i.e. use LilyPond's default or - if you have good reasons - change the alignment to a suiting value!

Hi lilyponders,
How to align the yMt with samplepath? Any solution is appreciated.
\markup { yMt
\path #0.15 #samplePath
try
\markup \general-align #Y #CENTER { ... }

Thanks,
Ming.
\version 2.17.26
samplePath =
#'((moveto 0 1)
(lineto -1 3)
(lineto -1 3)
(lineto 1 1)
(curveto 3 3 3 2 1 4)
(closepath))
\markup { yMt
\path #0.15 #samplePath
}
Uh, looks aligned to me. That is, the point (0,0) in the samplePath
seems to be on the baseline of yMt. What else do you want?

Re: align postscript markup to the right of a notehead
2008/4/20 padovani [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Is there a way to align a postscript markup to the right of a notehead? There probably is, but I don't know how (it would be easier with a \mark). The simplest solution would be something like: \override TextScript #'X-offset = #1.0 It could be a scheme function or something like that. It would make the begin of a line (n n moveto) closer to the notehead. I'm not sure I understand what you're looking for. Do you want to put the markup /vertically/ aligned with the NoteHead?
