Re: Order in which \mark and \tempo are stacked above a staff

[Andrew Bernard]

Greetings,

Try:

\new Staff {
  \time 2/4 fis'4 g'4
  \time 4/4
  \once \override Score.MetronomeMark.outside-staff-priority = #3000
  \tempo "a tempo"
  \once \override TextScript.outside-staff-priority = #450
  \mark \markup { \musicglyph #"scripts.ufermata" }
  d'16 b' d'' b' d' b' d'' b' e' b' e'' b' e' b' e'' b'
}

See the documentation for outside-staff-priority. In the doco for 
2.17.14 it's Section 4.4.3 Outside Staff Objects.

{You don't actually need the TextScript override, as that is the default 
setting. I just added it for your sample.]

Re fermata over the barline, certainly in 2.17.14 using \mark as you 
have done places it there precisely.
