Re: TextScript

[Stephen]

I would like to point out in comparing these two examples:

\override Voice.TextScript #'padding = #1.2
c4 c8. c16 c4^\markup { \translate #(cons 1.75 0) "Fine" } \breathe
\bar "||"

and

\override Voice.TextScript #'padding = #1.2
c4 c8. c16 c4 \breathe
\once \override Score.RehearsalMark
  #'break-visibility = #begin-of-line-invisible
\once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'self-alignment-X = #right
\once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'font-size = #0
\once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'padding = #1.2
\mark "Fine" \bar "||"

That in the second example, you have to change the padding for 
RehearsalMark, TextScript padding won't affect the rehearsal mark. The two 
examples are nearly identical. The advantage of the second is that you can 
line it up to the barline explicitly instead of eyeballing it and lining it 
up by hand with \translate.
