Re: Musical theater headers

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hi Daniel,

Maybe start here:

\version "2.18.0"

\header {
   piece = "Piece"
   number = "1"
   instrument = "Instrument"
   date = "01/01/0101"
   composer = "Composer"
}

\paper {

  scoreTitleMarkup = \markup \override #'(baseline-skip . 5) \column {
    \fill-line {
      \bold \fromproperty #'header:instrument
      ""
      \fromproperty #'header:date
    }
    \fill-line {
      ""
      \abs-fontsize #24 \fromproperty #'header:piece
      \override #'(box-padding . 2) \box \abs-fontsize #18 \fromproperty 
#'header:number
    }
    \fill-line {
      ""
      ""
      \fromproperty #'header:composer
    }
  }

  bookTitleMarkup = ##f

}

\score { c'1 }

Hope this helps!
Kieren.
