Re: A little help

Hello,

Doing it your way you can simply use

\new Dynamics \with {
        \consists Stem_engraver
        \consists Note_heads_engraver
        \override NoteHead.stencil = #point-stencil
        alignAboveContext = "giu"}

which requires a bit less tuning than getting a Staff to behave not like a 
Staff. But I’d rather do something like

tactus = \markup \path #0.15 #'((moveto 0 1) (lineto 0 -1))
giu = \new Staff = "giu" {
  \relative c' {
    <<
      {b4 a g f}
      \new Dynamics \with { alignAboveContext = "giu" }
      {\repeat unfold 4 s4-\tactus}
    >>
  }
}

which does also allow something like

giu = \new Staff = "giu" {
  \relative c' {
    <<
      {b4 a g f}
      {\repeat unfold 4 s4^\tactus}
    >>
  }
}

Cheers,
Valentin
