Re: Control vertical spacing in markup

[Jonathan Kulp]

Maybe not the most elegant solution, but the spacing turns out better if 
you put the two things in separate markups instead of in columns inside 
a single markup:

RHenglish = \markup {\tiny {\italic {{ "right hand the same" }}}}
RHfrench = \markup {\tiny {\italic {{ "simile la main droit" }}}}

\relative c'' {
  c8^\RHenglish^\RHfrench g c e c g c e
}
