The first 2 examples have some text (Acte I for the
first, \null as null text for the second) and then a raise/lower command and
then some more text. So in each case, the second piece of text is raised
or lowered with respect to the first piece. So Scène 1 appears
higher than Acte I. \null would be at the normal position, and Très modéré
is lowered with respect to it. In the final example, there is nothing
before Une forêt. and so there's nothing for it to be raised with respect to -
in other words, there's nothing that forms the "anchor" for it's position to be
changed with respect to.
\left-align puts all the text in the { } together
on one line, left aligned. \left-column puts each piece of text on a new
line, left-aligned with respect to each other. So \left-column { "The "
"quick " "brown " } puts The on a line above quick which is on a line above
brown.

Subject: re-learning markup
sections
Hello,
I am re,reading the sections in NR about markups. The
following confuses me, because I can't find any wrong points in the last one.
The madual says it has no anchor point, so can't be moved. Can you give me any
clues?
Also, I can't distinguish xx-align and xx-column. I think
\left-align { "abc def" "ghi jkl" } will be the same when using \left-column.
What's the difference? Could anyone give a plain text demo formatted with
spaces?
Regards
Haipeng

The following example demonstrates these two possibilities; the last
markup in this example has no anchor point, and therefore is not
moved.
d2^\markup {
Acte I
\raise #2 { Scène 1
}
}
a'
g_\markup {
\null
\lower #4 \bold { Très
modéré }
}
a
d,^\markup {
\raise #4 \italic { Une forêt.
}
}
a'4 a g2 a
