Re: Problem in printing both \fermata and \markup

[Mats Bengtsson]

LilyPond follows a number of builtin typesetting rules, saying if
a certain articulation should go below or above other indications.
What you noticed here is that LilyPond automatically will put the
fermata on the top. The easiest way to go around this cleverness is
to typeset both the fermata and the text as a single text markup,
such as:

r1^\markup {\column {\large "Test" \musicglyph #"scripts.ufermata" }}
