brainstorming a way to temporarily flip direction of lyrics

Hello all, We can temporarily change the direction of many grobs — Scripts, TextScripts, etc. — such that the usual effect is that they flip from being (e.g.,) beneath a context (e.g., the Staff that the Voice is a child of) to being above that context. I’m wondering — brainstorming mode now

Right then. Let me include a few files to show what I mean. The basic principle is this: the fraction that makes up a ratio in just intonation can be broken down to its prime factors, as I said in the previous message. In just intonation, this is what matters for determining harmonic

Well, this is a much longer and different discussion, but in short: I don't intend these for non-equal temperaments, but rather music in an open system of justly-tuned ratios. So, for example, you might certainly wish to define your basic scale that way (a major scale thus being 1/1, 9/8, 5/4,

Let me give another example of what I mean, just so you have an idea. I'm in a singing ensemble that performs music in just intonation. We have a soprano who is *terrifyingly* good at it. One of the things she does is sing a scale comprising the following harmonic ratios relative to the tonic:
