try:
\version "2.14.2"
#(define (forced-dir grob)
(let* ((x-parent (ly:grob-parent grob X))
(elts (ly:grob-object x-parent 'elements))
(grob-name (lambda (x) (assq-ref (ly:grob-property x 'meta)
'name)))
(stems (filter (lambda (x) (eq? 'Stem (grob-name x)))
(ly:grob-array->list elts)))
(stem (list-ref stems 0))
(stem-dir (ly:grob-property stem 'direction)))
(if (= stem-dir 1)
(ly:grob-set-property! grob 'direction -1)
(ly:grob-set-property! grob 'direction 1))))
\relative c' {
\textLengthOn
\override TextScript #'direction = #forced-dir
a4-\markup { \italic "TextScript"}
b'-\markup { \italic "TextScript"}
c'-\markup { \italic "TextScript"}
d,,-\markup { \italic "TextScript"}
e,-\markup { \italic "TextScript"}
f'-\markup { \italic "TextScript"}
g'-\markup { \italic "TextScript"}
a'-\markup { \italic "TextScript"}
b,,-\markup { \italic "TextScript"}
}
This is of course limited to TextScript. Are you considering other grobs
such as Fingering, StringNumber, StrokeFinger, too?
HTH,
