Re: small caps

[Abraham Lee]

Craig,

\caps is just a short-hand command for \smallCaps, but this situation 
is obviously a code bug. You CAN put the \caps or \smallCaps in the 
header variable itself:

piece = \markup \smallCaps "Piece"

and then it works, but since it seems that you are trying to create a 
custom title that does this automatically, this solution may not be 
suitable for you. I'm forwarding this small example to the bugs-list 
for extermination:

%<------------------------------------

\version "2.19.11"

\paper {
 scoreTitleMarkup = \markup {
   \column {
     \on-the-fly \print-all-headers { \bookTitleMarkup \hspace #1 }
     \fill-line {
       \large \bold \smallCaps \fromproperty #'header:piece
     }
   }
 }
}

\header {
 title = "Title"
 piece = "Piece"  % put the \smallCaps in here and it works
}

{ \repeat unfold 3 { s1 \break } }

%<----------------------------------------------
