I’m trying to create a two-column dialogue markup function for my musical score(s), e.g.,
I’ve got this so far, but even it’s not working correctly:
%%%%% BEGIN SNIPPET
\version "2.17.97"
#(define-markup-command (dialogue layout props charname text) (markup? markup?)
#:properties ((line-width 12))
(interpret-markup layout props
#{\markup \line {
\bold \concat { #charname : }
\override #`(line-width . ,line-width) \wordwrap { #text } } #}))
\markup \dialogue #”Kieren" #"This long line of text should wrap, into a column narrow enough to allow for two of these side-by-side on a single U.S. letter page. Furthermore, it should appear 'indented', i.e., the text should all sit to the right of the rightmost edge of the character name.”
#(define-markup-command (dialogue layout props charname text) (markup? markup?)
#:properties ((line-width 12))
(interpret-markup layout props
#{\markup \line {
\bold \concat { #charname : }
\override #`(line-width . ,line-width) \wordwrap { #text } } #}))
\markup \dialogue #”Kieren" #"This long line of text should wrap, into a column narrow enough to allow for two of these side-by-side on a single U.S. letter page. Furthermore, it should appear 'indented', i.e., the text should all sit to the right of the rightmost edge of the character name.”
%%%%% END SNIPPET
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kieren.
