Re: text at the end of a multimeasure rest

[Josiah Boothby]

So in my mockup I forgot to include the reason I hadn't wanted to use \mark : I'd already been using \mark to delineate sections:

Time = {

  \mark\markup{ Minuet }

  \repeat volta 2 { s1*4 }

  \repeat volta 2 { s1*4_\markup\right-align{ fine } }

  \mark\markup{ Trio }

  \repeat volta 2 { s1*4 }

  \repeat volta 2 { s1*4_\markup\right-align{ D.C. al fine } }

}

Either the sectional headings or the roadmap text should be applied with \mark, but not both. I'm of half a mind to do a feature request for beginning and ending texts to be applicable to repeats (something perhaps like \repeat \volta 2 { \with \startTextAbove "2x only" \endTextBelow "D.C. al fine" } { \notes } but the current correct solution is probably just evading me :P )

Thanks Paul.

There were missing brackets:

At least mismatched.  It should have been:

R1*4 \endMarkDown \mark \markup{D.S. al Fine)

Without parentheses.

Happy New Year,

Paul

  R1*4 \endMarkDown \mark \markup {(D.S. al Fine)}

I think I used to know how to do this but I can't find any evidence of it, but I'd like to do something that looks roughly like the following, where the text ("fine" or "D.C. al fine") are printed below the line:

|: /— 4 —/ :|: /— 4 —/ fine :|
|: /— 4 —/ :|: /— 4 —/ D.C. al fine :|

...while separating notes and time into separate variables. It seems like I should be able to do this by simply setting text to right-align:

Time = {
  \repeat volta 2 { s1*4 }
  \repeat volta 2 { s1*4_\markup\right-align{ fine } }
  \repeat volta 2 { s1*4 }
  \repeat volta 2 { s1*4_\markup\right-align{ D.C. al fine } }
}

Notes = {
  R1*4
  R1*4
  R1*4
  R1*4
}

...but that's clearly not how it works, since the text ends up being printed in the middle of the rest. Please remind me how to do this?

s1*3 s1_"fine"

ends up breaking the multimeasure rest, so is suboptimal.

This is one of the pieces of code I have defined in  my common file that I load with all of my code:


endMarkDown = {
  \once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'self-alignment-X = #right
  \once \override Score.RehearsalMark
  #'break-visibility = #begin-of-line-invisible
  \once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'direction = #DOWN
  \once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'font-size = #0
}

(The above could probably better but It works for me.

Then:

R1*4 \endMarkDown \mark \markup(D.S. al Fine)

I also have endMark which puts the text above.

HTH,

Paul
