Re: Left AND Right aligning RehearsalMarks.

[Mats Bengtsson]

When you include an example of your .ly code, please always
make sure that you include a full example that anyone else
can run directly through LilyPond. It's very hard to guess
exactly how you used your variables \regrainmelody and
\versonemelody, not to mention that it takes time.

First of all, you cannot have two different \mark directives
on the same bar line, so you would probably need a
\markup{...} to produce the two lines of marks with a
single \mark directive. This combined markup would then
have to be aligned to the bar line in some way.

As far as I can see, you don't have two \marks on the same
bar line here, so I probably missed what your real problem
is.
