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!

align in \markup
Hi lilyponders,
How to align the yMt with samplepath? Any solution is appreciated.
Thanks,

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?

align postscript markup to the right of a notehead
Is there a way to align a postscript markup to the right of a notehead? 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. thanks for any help. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
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?

Re: left-align text markup
\column gives you a number of left-aligned lines. /Mats Quoting cordilow [EMAIL PROTECTED]: How do you do line breaks with left-align? It doesn't work like center-align or column. Is there an alternative method of doing this? I desire to have multiple lines of text on the bottom left corner of the page.
