bar numbers at beginning of bar

Hi, 12.2.1 When numbering all bars the default bar numbers seem to be at the end of the previous bar which is confusing to the reader. When I use \override Score.BarNumber #'self-alignment-X = #-1 to try to make these less confusing to the reader *sometimes* the music above the bar numbers

See, that's just amazing. personally, I think \markup \concat {4\char ##x2032 " 33"\char##x2033 } is a little shorter, but it's kind of awesome that that can be done with all that stuff that apparently means something. Am 24.01.2009 um 21:49 schrieb Mark Polesky: Don't forget you can stor

See http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=735&q=font that shows how to fix the font problem. Then you can compile with the prime and double-prime characters. You'll get the pango warning, but you can ignore that. Am 24.01.2009 um 12:45 schrieb Tom Hall: Ole Schmidt gmx.net> w

That's odd, there are extra spaces in there too. What if you try just copying and pasting in the ′ and ″ characters? Or what about using \char ##x2032? Does that help? Am 24.01.2009 um 11:04 schrieb Ole Schmidt: when I compile your example, it comes out like this (see pdf), why?? I'am on Mac

There may be an easier way. In osx, you have utf-8 on by default. So you don't need to use the lilypond special of inserting utf-8 characters. Which, by the way, mark's way I don't understand, it uses scheme. The easier way is to just use \markup \concat { 4/char ##x2032 } But, since on osx,
