Hi list,

I want the tempo indication to appear at the leftmost edge of the piece
(I know that Gould has a different opinion about this, but I am using
LilyJAZZ, and the Realbook style does not care about these typographic
conventions).

However, changing the break-align-symbols property does not seem to
have *any* effect:

\version "2.19.0"

melLeftEdge = {
  \override Score.MetronomeMark.break-align-symbols = #'(left-edge)
  \tempo "Slowly" 4 = 60
  c'4
}
\score { \new Staff { \melLeftEdge } }

melClef = {
  \override Score.MetronomeMark.break-align-symbols = #'(clef)
  \tempo "Slowly" 4 = 60
  c'4
}
\score { \new Staff { \melClef } }

melKey = {
  \override Score.MetronomeMark.break-align-symbols = #'(key-signature)
  \tempo "Slowly" 4 = 60
  c'4
}
\score { \new Staff { \melKey } }

How can I achieve a left-aligned tempo indication?

TIA,

Marc
