Considering the amount of internal brain surgery that seems to have been done since 2.7.12, I wouldn't be surprised if the latest Windows version is much more stable than 2.7.15, so maybe you shouldn't complain. On the other hand, it means that fewer people get the chance to discover and report

In your original question, you didn't really say what you wanted to achieve and you didn't include any complete example. A \markup{...} is used just like any text string and within a score, you either have to attach it to a note like b4^\markup{\italic Moderato } or if you want it right at the
