Hi Neil,
The alignment's good when there's a time signature present, but the stumbling block is how to align to note columns; I can't work out how the metronome marks get attached to a paper column when there's no breakable object nearby. :(
For the record, this is also a problem with RehearsalMark: %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \version "2.11.57" \layout { \context { \Score \override RehearsalMark #'break-align-symbols = #'(time-signature) \override RehearsalMark #'self-alignment-X = #left } } twoMarks = \relative {\time 4/4 \mark "This mark is aligned (correctly) to the time signature." c'2 c4 c \break \mark "This one is aligned (undesirably) to the left of the system." c2 c4 c
} \score { \twoMarks } %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%It would be nice if the second-system RehearsalMark aligned with the first note of the measure, as per Read's description.
Can you calculate the appropriate value(s) from the BarLine #'space- alist, then attach the Metronome/Rehearsal Mark to the bar line (invisible or not), and pad it from there? I mean, clearly Lilypond knows where to put the first note of the measure, so it should be determinable from the values of the #'space-alist, no?
Cheers, Kieren.
