Hi James,

Below, I've set 'outside-staff-priority to #f, meaning that the grob will be treated as a within-staff object.  You can then move it around with 'extra-offset.  I used 'X-offset and 'Y-offset so the spacing will accommodate the object,

 \score {

  \new PianoStaff <<

    \new Staff { \notes }

    \new Staff {

      r4

      \once \override TextScript.outside-staff-priority = ##f

      a'2.^\tweak #'Y-offset #-1 ^\tweak #'X-offset #-1 \bracket }

HTH,

Excellent, David. Thank you! Follow up question: Is there a way to set the outside-staff-priority in the markup definition itself? If this is explained in the manuals somewhere a pointer to it will suffice.

Thanks,
