Re: Changing default font size

[Kevin Patrick Barry]

Dear Federico,

Here is a minimal example. I don't know what fonts you have installed on your system, so I put what I believe to be the default LilyPond Roman font into the function (not that it's important). Tinkering with the values in the "(/ staff-height pt 20)" argument doesn't seem to help. I would like the default size in the example to be the same as the one I manually resized with \abs-fontsize.

\version "2.18.0"

\paper {

#(define fonts (make-pango-font-tree "Century Schoolbook L" "" "" (/ staff-height pt 20)))

}

\relative {

   \textLengthOn

   c'_"default size"

   c_\markup { \abs-fontsize #10 "size 10" }

}

Dear Federico,

Thank you for responding. I had read the section you linked (and copied the code at the bottom into a style file). There are two problems: I can't use an absolute font size in an override, which I need, and if I change the font size in the paper block with the pango function all of the emmentaler glyphs are resized also. I would like a single command, that can accept an absolute font size, to only apply to Textscript. Is this possible? I don't want to have to fill all the files with \abs-fontsize.

Kevin

Dear LilyPond users,

I would like the font in a series of files to be size 10, but I don't want to have to put \abs-fontsize in every markup. I would prefer to put it in my style file, but when I mess with the font sizes there, the size of the music glyphs also changes. Is there a way to change the absolute font size of just the textscript?

Here's explained how to change the font size of a specific object:

If you know which object to apply it to, it should work.
