Rather involved TextSpanner edge-text Scheme markup question

2006-09-18 Thread Trevor Bača
Hi, I'm trying to get the edge text of a series of consecutive TextSpanners to vertically align according to baseline. I've pasted in a sequence of ever-closer steps but beware that the post is long. If you're not interested in markup, skip to the next thread. Here's what I'm starting out

I expected something like (markup #:pad-to-box '(0 . 0) '(-2 . 2) f) to solve the problem, but apparently it doesn't. If you want to pursue your current approach, try the \combine markup command (and try it first without your current #:hcenter commands, they caused me some confusing results).

Hi Trevor, you may try to use the fake letter f. It has all the necessary ascenders and descenders to fake the basline. I use this with dynamics. pX = #(make-dynamic-script (markup #:combine #:transparent #:dynamic f #:line(#:hspace 0 #:dynamic p #:hspace 0))) HTH Markus

Hi, thank for the suggestion with \partcombine, it does indeed part of the job, it merges the noteheads, but it also changes the directions of the stems at the same time and that is undesirable. What I would need is something that would merge the noteheads and keep the stems down ( the result

Matt, I'll read that again. I tried using a \markup { \score } and that method would be ideal, but the markup score never rendered past it's first measure. I tested the \score separately and it would render 3 measures, no problem, but when I cutandpaste that same score into a \markup and
